Watch out, the Congressional Black Caucus will demand a law that will prevent them from talking to each other.

Trump is a bulldozer. Cruz is a constitutional surgeon.
I have no criticism.

If we know about it, is it secret?

“I like Donald Trump. I think he’s terrific, I think he’s brash, I think he speaks the truth,” Cruz said on Fox News.



@realDonaldTrump for President of the United States! @SenTedCruz Vice President ;A #WinningTicket2016 #TrumpCruz2016"— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 1, 2015

There is definitely a mutual respect, as there should be. I heard Cruz comment in an interview that he would confront
Trump on an issue if they had a difference of opinion. I believe he would do that in a heartbeat, but he will not attack Trump as a person.

Seems to me that there is a symbiotic relationship developing. The article doesn’t mention this, but I think Trump is the second choice for some Cruz supporters.

Wouldn’t you love to have been a fly on the wall for that conversation? The master negotiator and dealmaker speaking with and planning strategy with the master speaker and debater.

The underlying assumption is Trump will drop out. Why not Cruz?

Cruz is a constitutional surgeon.

Well said.

Trump/Cruz 2016

Trump/Cruz 2016

Now's the time to get behind this. I hope to see Cruz drop and the two of them announce they are running together, primaries be damned. An unstoppable team, the 2 could then focus on looking and acting presidential, all but ignoring all the others. It's a winning strategy, they both know it, and here's to hoping they act on it.

On another thread, Fox news reports Rubio and Walker are teaming up to take out Trump. The Dynamic Duo vs Madison Man and Boy Blunder.

“Secret” seems like the wrong word to put in a headline about “secret” talks.

I dont get it. Article says “But an aide to Cruz, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said the two had bonded over the issue of illegal immigration.”

Trump and Cruz are miles apart on legal immigration.

“expand green card opportunities, increase high-skilled “H1B” visas...”
http://www.cruz.senate.gov/?p=issue&id=33

“Mark Zuckerberg’s personal Senator, Marco Rubio, has a bill to triple H-1Bs that would decimate women and minorities...”
“... Before any new green cards are issued to foreign workers abroad, there will be a pause...”

Sort of like Barry hanging with Soros, Ayers, Khalidi, Farrakkan, Jackson, Stewart and Sharpton?

Where is the outrage?
