Cruz teams up with Fiorina against Trump in GOP race

“She is careful. She is measured”.

“They won’t challenge the system… they are the system”, she said, prompting more chants of “Carly, Carly, Carly…” “She doesn’t get rattled”.

During her acceptance speech, Fiorina graced the crowd with a few lines of a song she likes to sing to Cruz’s children.

And the chances of nominating a real Republican – instead of the faux Republican who crashed the party – will be significantly increased.

Ted Cruz announced Carly Fiorina as his running mate on Wednesday, despite his having no path to the presidential nomination other than a contested GOP convention.

Donald Trump has added endorsements from five more delegates in Pennsylvania, giving him 147 delegates from Tuesday’s primaries. The former HP executive endorsed Cruz after dropping out of the race in February, saying that he was the only candidate with the potential to beat Trump. But Cruz needed to recapture the limelight after a rough Tuesday showing, and choosing Fiorina may be an attempt to win over Republican women in the remaining states. Cruz broke down in detail the three pillars of his campaign – jobs, freedom and security – while also taking shots at Trump and Democratic opponents Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.

“Lucifer in the flesh”, the former speaker said. Trump asked. “He is the first presidential candidate in the history of this country who’s mathematically eliminated from becoming president who chose a vice presidential candidate”. It also seems to overlook the fact that female Republicans who are turned off by Trump’s sexist rhetoric and abrasive style are already on the Stop Trump bandwagon.

Yeah, and that’s why I voted for him in the voting booth before I ever had a conversation wth him about endorsing him.

But if the point right now is to deny Trump votes in the next 10 contests, Cruz’s pick of Fiorina doesn’t change the game at all.

Fiorina once headed the computer giant Hewlett-Packard before being ousted in a corporate boardroom shakeup. She was forced to resign amid weak earnings as the company struggled to digest a $19 billion merger with then-rival Compaq Computer Corp.

Some conservatives applauded the choice.

Knight said Trump was “not a Democrat or a Republican at heart” but just “a great American” and had the “ideal background” to become president. He would make it a crime for women to exercise her reproductive freedom, even in the cases of rape and incest.

Though selecting Fiorina as the Vice-Presidential nominee was a bold choice, that’s exactly what voters need from our President and Vice-President, Draper said. Both tickets lost in the general election.
