They must have read my posts.

Ouch that might leave a mark!

[BlueStateRightist]

I want to like Trump, but this type of sh$t renders him an a$$h0le.

[MNlurker]

Would you if anything you said is immediately lapped up by fawning fans...?

Can’t blame him at all.

Its Jesse the Body all over again.

[annieokie]

TRUMP (PRAISE HIM, PRAISE HIM, PRAISE HIM) is gradually betraying his WEENY character-—filled with BLUSTER TO MASK HIS COWARDLINESS."""""

YEP......PRAISE HIM, PRAISE HIM, PRAISE HIM, GLORIFY HIS WORSHIPFUL SELF TRUMPY.

Let's say Cruz had that in hand (who knows he may have not that I need it), what then would be Trumps excuse? omg Trump in a corner?

That’s the primary reason his supporters back him. Pretty goofy reason but I know, but there ya go.

[skeeter]

Do not believe it is possible to do that to Cruz’s critics satisfaction.

[dangus]

Once again using comedy to hide his cowardice. The elections start Monday, and a ruling would take months.

Due to the fact that his parents were both citizens and his father was on active duty serving his country. It’s the only exception I would agree with.

The challenge to debate by Cruz was a childish move. Cruz knows full well that the RNC would not approve a debate outside the agreed upon rules. As far as the eligibility issue is concerned, it is as serious as a heart attack. There are substantive issues surrounding the definition of natural born citizen as it applies to eligibility for the Presidency. It has never been litigated with Constitutional scholars coming down on different sides re Cruz.

Is Ted Cruz a 'natural born Citizen'? Not if you're a constitutional originalist

[Mariner]

Nobody could have imagined this election cycle if they were writing a riveting fiction.

This Trump guy is emerging as a political monster, certainly the best I've seen since I first voted in 1976.

He doesn't just bash his opponents, he cuts their heads off.

[dangus]

It’s also really comical that a guy who filed for bankruptcy four times seems to think that taking out a second mortgage on your home so you can run is an indication of corruption.

"Once you've gotten that ruling from the federal judge and you're the last man standing in this presidential contest next to Donald Trump, we'll be happy to have a debate with you one-on-one, anywhere you want, because that's the way the system works," Lewandowski said. "But, as it stands right now, we don't even know if Ted Cruz is legally eligible to run for president of the United States."

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAL!

[Cboldt]

Trump’s condition only pertains to one-on-one when two are left standing.

[Guenevere]

LOL......BOOM!

[MeanWestTexan]

“I figured Trump would find some childish way to abstain.”

He had to abstain.

While I think it would be good for the country for Trump and Cruz to debate, I understand why Trump, as the front runner, wants to avoid getting bloodied.

It’s good politics, even if not good for the voters.

Well, not until Trump is cleared of Financial Fraud in all of his past business deals.

[McGruff]

Much butthurt this will cause. Yes.
