    Tray Gowdy to Campaign for Rubio in Iowa

    Gowdy to campaign for Rubio in Iowa

    By Dan Friedman 12/26/15

    South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy will campaign with Sen. Marco Rubio next week in a boost for the Rubio, who has emerged as the front-runner among candidates acceptable to Republican party leaders.
    Gowdy, an articulate former prosecutor popular among conservatives for leading a special House committee investigating the 2012 terror attack in Benghazi, Libya, will join Rubio in Iowa.


    "Marco is a rock solid conservative and a strong leader we can trust. I look forward to campaigning with him, and introducing my good friend to voters across the state," Gowdy said in a statement Rubio's campaign released.


    Rubio's campaign said Gowdy will join the Florida senator on a three-day trip that includes events in Burlington, Clinton and Waterloo, Iowa on Tuesday and Wednesday.


    While Gowdy has not explicity endorsed Rubio, his decision to join the senator as he campaigns against Republican primary opponents in Iowa is effectively an endorsement of Rubio's candidacy.

    Trey Gowdy Gets Brutalized On Social Media For Endorsing Pro-Amnesty ‘RINO’ Presidential Candidate


    WRITTEN BY:
    MATTHEW K. BURKE

    DECEMBER 26, 2015

    Tough-talking Congressman Trey Gowdy (R-SC) is considered a hero to many conservatives across the country. His congressional interrogations of government corruptocrats are a thing of legend, of beauty, almost conservative pornography.

    But Gowdy came under considerable fire on Saturday after he announced that he would be supporting pro-amnesty “Gang of Eight” leader Marco Rubio for president and would be joining Rubio on the campaign trail in the key state of Iowa next week.

    “Marco is a rock solid conservative and a strong leader we can trust,” Trey Gowdy said, as being reported by Guy Benson of Townhall. “I look forward to campaigning in Iowa with him, and introducing my good friend to voters across the state,” Gowdy announced.

    But as you can see from Trey Gowdy’s Facebook page, conservatives saw the endorsement of Marco Rubio, who fell out of favor in 2013 for joining leftist Democrats like Sens. Chuck Schumer and Republican establishment stooges like RINOs John McCain and Jeff Flake on the “Gang of Eight” bill to push amnesty for illegal aliens.

    A screenshot of the first several comments on Gowdy’s Facebook page, in order, looked like this:


    In addition to Trey Gowdy being called out as a RINO (Republican-In-Name-Only) on Facebook, he was equally brutalized on Twitter, with conservatives showing outrage over his support of Rubio, who got elected with Tea Party support in the historic Tea Party wave of 2010.

    Rubio ran on the promise of supporting border security and against amnesty and conservatives still haven’t forgiven his support for amnesty that followed, considered a major breach of a campaign promise of an issue that conservatives feel is very important for the security of the nation.

    #Trump- Trey Gowdy. His only accomplishment was to make Hillary look good. Rubio will need him during those amnesty hearings.

    If Gowdy hasn't realized his mistake yet, he will. He just lost my trust!
