Glenn Beck endorses Cruz: Trump win is ‘snowball to hell’
But Beck is an influential voice among some Tea Party conservatives and evangelical Christians who are a significant force in the Iowa caucuses February 1. For good measure, her daughter Bristol blasted Cruz.
This means that Trump’s support among Republicans is even stronger than it appears in the national polls, since his voters are less likely to abandon him for another candidate. Bob Dole, R-Kan., said Cruz would be “cataclysmic” for the party, and North Carolina Sen.
Trump continues to dominate the Republican polls, but when he’s put side by side with Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, the latter is said to have a better chance at winning, according to a Monmouth University poll.
In another tweet, he questioned the citizenship of Mr Cruz. “It’s been fun. But Iowa, I bet you, I beg you, my children’s future depends on what you do a week from Monday”, he said.
One supporter, who spoke to ABC News, said he found Trump’s point clear – but mentioned Trump could have articulated it differently. The campaign ad is scheduled to run in the early nominating states of Iowa, New Hampshire and SC, and Mr. Trump’s campaign said it is spending $2 million a week on advertising.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said Thursday the Republican establishment is “warming up” to his candidacy as he ramped up his attacks against his chief rival, Texas Sen. Cruz has led other polls in Iowa. Cruz wants a phase-out of a federal mandate to use corn-based ethanol in gasoline, arguing that government should not be picking winners and losers.
Cruz tops the list as the “second choice” among Trump backers – and vice versa.
The Donald also needled Cruz for drawing the support of ultra-conservative commentator Glenn Beck, who is planning to stump for the Texan in Iowa.
Cruz released his own ad slamming the billionaire reality TV star for supporting “eminent domain”.
Trump has picked up the support of some black ministers as well.
“Grassley will be on the campaign trail with others, too, through next weekend”.
It is important to note, however, that the Senator also plans on attending a town hall meeting with Ted Cruz this week, as well as a rally for Marco Rubio. What do you think will happen during the Iowa caucus next month?
