Donald Trump Calls Ted Cruz an ‘Anchor Baby’
ABC ^

Posted on 01/29/2016 11:35:04 AM PST by TigerClaws

Three days ahead of the Iowa caucuses,Donald Trump, the front-runner for the GOP nomination, today attacked Sen. Ted Cruz again for being born in Canada.

"Now, Ted Cruz may not be a U.S. citizen. Right? But he's an anchor baby in Canada. No, he's an anchor baby. Ted Cruz is an anchor baby in Canada," Trump said today at his event in Nashua, New Hampshire.

He also said the Texas senator got “pummeled last night" at the GOP presidential debate.

“They didn’t even mention he was born in Canada,” Trump lamented.

Hes making certain that no Cruz supporters will vote for him if he gets the nomination.

The same thing Ted and his supporters have been making great progress toward, also: re: Trump supporters.

And anchor babies are born in the U.S., not outside the U.S.

Trump is trying get Cruz vetted so he can make him his running mate.

You honestly believe that? Then why isn't Trump out there defending Cruz who say he isn't eligible instead of agreeing with them that he isn't eligible? What Trump has done is make it impossible for him to even consider Cruz, assuming he ever had to begin with. And has made it impossible for Cruz to accept the VP spot, assuming he ever would have accepted it to begin with.

A *Canadian* anchor baby. That’s actually true, which is why Ted was automatically a Canadian citizen until he renounced it 15 months ago.

“This may make some of his supporters laugh with glee, but it doesn’t play well with center-right undecideds.”

It’s what cost that Obama dude the election in 08.

Oh wait...

Disagree. Donald has kicked and will continue to kick the media’s ass six ways to Sunday. That’s what makes him a winner.

Ted won’t survive the media onslaught, but Donald will. Donald has the media savvy, Ted doesn’t.

Donald needs to stop with the Ted birther attacks because 1) they are untrue and 2) a large contingent of conservatives like both men immensely. It’s like watching two brothers fighting, you just want to say KNOCK IT OFF NOW!

So Cruz was no longer born in Canada. He’s an anchor baby who was born here to illegal immigrant parents? This clown just gets nuttier by the day.

Too late for what?

Having an American in the white house who knows business instead of a Kenyan Muslim punk bastard?

Birthright citizenship is conferred by virtually every country in the Americas so the definition logically applies to Cruz vis a vis Canada. I don’t see the big deal except his parents clearly did not give birth in Canada for the purpose of conferring dual citizenship.

You cannot fundraise for the vets AND participate in the Iowa presidential debate?

I didn’t know the two activities were mutually exclusive.

Trump is doing what the left-wing nut Soros people would do. That way, He is FULLY VETTED, not just endorsed by Trump.

Yes he does. It’s exactly right. By being born in Canada Ted automatically became a Canadian citizen. Ted us a Canadian anchor baby.

“So infantile and immature.

“So petty and thin skinned.

Wish we had a “post mirror” so you could see yourself doing the same thing...

“Trump refuses to release his birth or school records.”

Trump has. Cruz has not.

Something those of us who live in normal places may be forgetting is that New Yorkers, residents of the place so nice they named it twice, believe that being able to swear at people in their own language, uh, makes them multi-lingual.

And after 8 years of Dubya’s silence when attacked, and numbnuts Tweedledee McCain and Tweedledum Romney, a lot of us are looking forward to seeing (OK, brace yourself) someone chew Hillary’s ***.
Eeeeewwwww! Or Sanders, Slow Joe, Adlai Stevenson’s exhumed body or whomever.

Trump is like a voracious Langolier, eating from the feet up. You’ve got to let the big dog eat.

Democrat/liberal tactics on display courtesy of Donald Trump.

So then, he's NOT a conservative you say ;) ?

Maybe liberal plant for Hillary to throw the election (says she's a great woman; and HE's a great contributor, yanno) ...
refused to sign promise to not go third party, I recall.
