Ted Cruz is spouting more insanity...

In a speech being shown on MSNBC, he is claiming that the liberals who control main stream media have given Trump millions of $ of publicity because they know he's the only one that Clinton can beat.

How many things wrong with this statement can you find?

I've seen hosts interrupt their own shows & cut to Trump giving a plain old campaign speech. I mean, WTF? With the exception of Sanders, I don't recall them going live to a campaign event for the other candidates. All the media loves a clown, cuz it apparently gets ratings.

They're doing it to help Clinton. The CEOs who run the media are not Democrats.

Lost Florida, Yikes! Not a good day to be a Republican.

Great Day for Democrats, though.

he is foul. The only thing he said which is actually truthful is all the free advertising and exposure for Trump. It's been sickening.
