‘Trump said it’s “too early” for him to start thinking about a running mate, if he wins the nomination. But he did have particularly kind words for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), with whom he met privately in New York City on Wednesday.
“He asked for the meeting,” Trump said. “I didn’t know what it was about. And it was just a personal get-together, and we were together 45 minutes, and I think he’s a terrific guy.”
Trump added that he had particular respect for Cruz, since the Texas senator “came out very early” in his defense after Trump decried Mexican migrants as “rapists” during his announcement speech last month.
“The media covered it terribly incorrectly, and a lot of the media’s already apologized to me,” he said. “But Ted Cruz came out early, and I respect him for that.”’
I’ll bet you $5 that there are Trump/Cruz 2016 signs and posters already printed and sitting in a warehouse somewhere in New Jersey.
