Evidence is mounting that the GOP establishment got it’s hands dirty to sabotage Donald Trump’s prospects in the Iowa primary.
That Ted Cruz emerged on top yesterday came as a shock to even conservatives, many of whom adamantly support Trump and believed that he would achieve an easy victory in the first state to vote in the primaries. But when one looks at the conduct of not only the Cruz campaign but Republican Party leaders.
Most notably, Cruz deliberately fooled Iowans who planned to vote for Ben Carson into thinking that he was about to announce the suspension of his bid for the presidency, with Cruz supporters fraudulently representing themselves as Carson campaign spokesmen to Republicans online and even murmuring about it at caucus sites so as to discourage people from voting for him.
Additionally, National Review published a widely-criticized volume of it’s magazine bluntly titled “Against Trump”, collecting pieces from personalities like Glenn Beck, Bill Kristol and John Podheretz in the hopes of turning readers against the Donald. The magazine’s extensive reach and influence likely played some part in Trump’s defeat.

How do you get THAT form what I said, idiot?
I’m sorry, I just don’t trust Cruz. I tried, but… Now we’re being told that if we don’t want him, we’re not REAL CONSERVATIVES, we’re sell outs, blah blah. Well that’s what happened with McCain and Romney too, and we were railroaded into voting for two iffy candidates we didn’t want, who couldn’t win. “He’s the one, we have to have HIM!!! He’s the guy!” Here we are again, being strong armed into choosing someone, or we’re NOT CONSERVATIVES, the new equivalent of “YOU RACISTS!!!!”. Think for yourself and trust your own gut. I don’t trust Cruz. I watch him speak and all I see is something very wrong there, and HE WON’T win the country. The three old commies want to triple down on Obama, ban the First and Second Amendments, confiscate your guns (they keep promising it), raise federal taxes to 90% on YOU, not the mythical rich guy, and they will appoint up to 4 Supreme Court Justices. We won’t have a country left if we don’t win this election. It’ll be one big, gay, man on child, animal raping orgy on welfare!!!
His and Carlson’s
Yes
This article is a huge joke, not even nearly objective. Trump lost, he snubbed Iowans by not going to the debate. He turned a big win into a solid loss.
Of course cause they don’t want him in there making America great again!
Nope
No candidate would quit in the middle of the vote, so putting that out added votes to Cruz that should have been carsons, how many I don’t know how many districts I don’t know that either but that was wrong
I heard last night someone on fox was talking to marco camp when they said with Carson out we want his votes I didn’t hear when the Cruz camp said it
Troll
You don’t make deals with the dems you either give up what they want or you get accused of not wanting to deal
