This time it's a Facebook page that says Trey Gowdy is no longer endorsing Rubio and is now endorsing Cruz. Gowdy is upset.

Quote:
"In a statement released by Rubio’s campaign, Gowdy — the chairman of the House Benghazi committee — said: “Its been reported that a fake Facebook page has been used to fool South Carolinians into thinking that I no longer support Marco Rubio and that I’m instead supporting Ted Cruz. Nothing could be further from the truth and I’m demanding that Senator Cruz and his campaign repudiate these dishonest and underhanded tactics.” The Facebook page has a photo of Gowdy and is called “Trey Gowdy Prayers.” A post on Monday stated: “It is official, I have changed my mind. My previous endorsement of Marco Rubio was a grave mistake…To all my Christian and Conservative friends in South Carolina, I hereby formally endorse Ted Cruz for President of the United States.”

Are you people new to politics or something? Its been the dirtiest game in town for centuries and all of these tactics are nothing new. Why is it only news when Cruz does it? If you think the other candidates aren't making false claims and doing dishonest things to influence votes, you are a complete fool.

It looks like a parody account. Some took this seriously? I see July 2015 posts.

"Trey Gowdy Prayers
Short Description
A Page to post Prayers and receive updates on Trey Gowdy, Chairman of the Congressional Select Committee on Benghazi."

I think we have established that Ted Cruz would do ANYTHING to win the election including selling his soul to Satan. The man has serious issues. I would think true Christians would be ashamed to support him. He is up to his ears in sin when it comes to his campaign.

Eh, I am almost 100% sure that "Se Habla Español" had nothing to do with it. Sounds like a joke.

The other candidates aren't bragging about how holy they are.

These Trumpettes are worse than their candidate.

How come they are not accusing of Trump of dirty tricks because Jebbush.com redirects to a Trump website? I bet they will say "Trump didn't do it" but if it's another candidate they woukd be 100% sure that the candidate was involved.

Any presidential candidate named jeb Bush who fails to secure jebbush.com deserves what he gets. If he can't secure a web page for himself, what's he gonna do for the country? This link doesn't get redirected
