Glenn Beck endorses Cruz: Trump win is 'snowball to hell'

Glenn Beck has cast his vote for president -- and it's definitely not Donald Trump.

Beck officially endorsed presidential candidate Ted Cruz on Saturday while at a rally at Faith Bible College in Iowa.

"We need a new George Washington," Beck said at the rally. "Today's Washington will not be found in the garish light of gold, but rather, in the bold service of a man who stands tirelessly for what he deeply believes -- that government should be of the people, by the people, and for the people."

"I have prayed for the next George Washington," Beck said of Cruz. "I believe I have found him."

1. Well at least we know who is the biggest crackpot between those two

Trump vs Cruz, that is.

It's not the least bit surprising though, given Cruz is an unabashed supporter of making the US a theocracy.

[Frisco Hillboy]

3. Yes, Ted is the only man in America more batshit than Glenn! /

[potone]

20. The "garish light of gold"?

I thought Beck was trying to get people to buy gold. I'm so confused...and Ted Cruz as another George Washington? Really? Well, this confirms one thing for me: Cruz would be an even worse president than Trump. But I knew that already.

[lastlib]

21. that's gonna crap on his gold-selling gig..........

that won't be pretty.....

[ProfessorGAC]

27. I Think Cruz Was Promoting Return To Gold Standard

Doesn't that make Beck's statement a non sequitur? Strike that. Everything he says is a non sequitur.

2. GW wasn't creepy as hell was he?

[7wo7rees]

4. Bawahhahahaha! OK, sovwr have Sarah endorsing Trump

[LiberalElite]

5. A "snowball to hell" well

you learn something new every day. Not that it's all worth knowing.

[trillion]

10. he's keeping up with the palinism and bushism and frankly republicanism crazy terminology.

Remember, their plan is dismantle public education and they've been at it for years. I can tell they're succeeding by their voters. Of course now they can't handle the monster they've created - trump supporters. And, I thought the fact that they created a base who became tea partiers bit them in the arse. Okay, it's still biting them in the arse - they are the trump supporters.

[LiberalElite]

17. IOW Be careful

what you wish for - you may get it.

[juxtaposed]

6. Beck and lush limbaugh have been going at it a little about those two.

sean hannity and beck have been screaming at each other for the last month about these two.. Everyone knew beck was going to back cruz, as with sean pushing trump..

[certainot]

7. limbaugh makes excuses for both trump and cruz

and craps on bush.

if it was the other way around bush would be on top

and beck really is a nut.

it's too bad the left doesn't pay attention to rw radio - it's been kicking our ass since reagan killed the fairness doctrine in 1987- progressive orgs have been wasting our donations and hours for 25 years, undone by a few blowhards with big microphones.

8. "Buy GOLD!" "Buy GOLD!" "Buy GOLD!" at $ 1,900 !! ( 2011)

Gold is now barely hitting $1,100.00

Thank you Glenn, I SOLD GOLD bought $750.00 at $ 1,900.00 !! in 2011

You are one SMART man.

[rjsquirrel]

11. He's no different on this

a than our local DU hero Thom Hartmann, who accepts gold bug advertisers and shills for the coming economic apocalypse on their behalf

[vkkv]

23. NONE of the times that I watched Thom Hartman back when I was

a cable subscriber did I personally ever see any gold buying ads on Thom's show.

Can't eat gold anyway.. food, water filters, containers, tents.. perhaps today's HOMELESS would be more likely to survive the Apocalypse better than JEB's daughter would.

[keithbvadu2]

12. Don't Glenn's gold pals try to steer you to 'collectible' coins,

way overpriced instead of gold by weight?

[trillion]

9. Okay, maybe I should go to bed. I'm agreeing with a statement by Glenn Beck....

[underpants]

13. So Glen Beck says anyone ANYONE needs to apologize for being 'arrogant and self-centered'?

HE prayed and God answered HIS prayers

Okay

[Jenny_92808]

14. Glenn Beck

is mentally ill and evil.

[silvershadow]

16. I remember Glenn. Didn't he used to be a broadcaster? nt

[Fast Walker 52]

18. ain't that cute?

a brain-dead religious freak huckster endorses another religious freak huckster.... now run along Glenn, and let the grownups discuss who should be president.

[daleo]

19. Trump gets Palin, Cruz gets Beck

It's like a crazy contest. Who is The Joker supporting?

[SummerSnow]

22. this guy...
