Trump is going back to run his empire.

VOTE CRUZ.

Exactly. So to some here, it’s ok for Hillary to cheat if there really is no net impact. No problem.

The problem of Iowa isn’t one of winners, losers or placement.

The problem is that Cruz cheated.

The cheating was wrong and should be addressed.

You are so correct. Everyone of the Cruz supporters wants this to be about Trump, but the issue is Cruz cheated Carson. So many here indicate it was ok to cheat Carso because “he wasn’t winning anyway.”

People continue in marathons even after the first person crosses the finish line to see where they honestly stood but Carson wasn’t given that.

And I simply fail to see how all these people who hate Trump so much for not being a good Christian as now so willing to say it is ok for Cruz as a Christian to lie if it fit the desired goal

It shows that Cruz has the capacity to cheat and Trump wants it stopped right now without going any further. I do not blame him.

St. Cruz has no steam going into NH. He has not gained one point from his sleaze.

Well, if he wasn’t cheated, he would have outperformed perhaps by 3 points.

I’m so happy you’re all into cheating. Warms the cockles of my heart.

Thank you. Your post says all I wanted to say but says it much more wisely.

Thanks for your assessment.

What I find facisnating is that Trump was even in the picture in Iowa based upon
their consevative passion, etc. I know the democrats have elected offices also but I
just never saw Trump even on the radar, so to speak.

To me Trump’s finish in 2nd should be considered a win for him, but maybe he doesn’t
feel that way.

Take care.

Great (and accurate) graphic!

Ain't it the truth!  I have never heard such whining, and bitter, shrill nastiness, from so many on the side whose candidate just won the first round.   (What are they going to sound like when they start losing next week?)

Fighting hard against cheating is not unhinged. It is call justified anger based on a worthy principle of being honest. Cruz has to be watched closely going forwards because he has a propensity to cheat.

I think he is trying to take some of the steam out of Cruz before the NH primary.

I thought that too as a an alternative strategy, but came to the conclusion that the counter effect of being viewed as a sore loser out weighed that.

Just like missing the debates, you got to wonder who is advising him on these matters.

Not on your life. Don’t like him. I did at one point but I’ve been dissuaded by his behavior and phony Christian act.

What would Cuban-Canadian Cruz do about this:

Call it another immigration surge of the United States' own making. But unlike last summer’s crisis of children and families arriving from Central America, lawmakers aren't quick to call on this current group of refugees to go home.

October 2014 to June 2015, about 18,520 Cubans have sought entry to the United States through Texas’ Laredo field office of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which includes ports from Del Rio to Brownsville. That’s compared to the 18,240 unaccompanied minors that were caught or surrendered to U.S. Border Patrol in the Rio Grande Valley from October 2014 through July of this year, according to CBP statistics.

If current trend holds, the number of Cubans seeking entry through Laredo will be about 24,700 this fiscal year. That's about 60 percent more than 2014's 15,600 and nearly twice as many as 2013's 12,445.

The influx of Cubans to Texas is a result of the Obama administration's efforts to normalize relations with the communist Castro regime, said Marc Rosenblum, deputy director of the U.S. Immigration Policy program at the Migration Policy Institute, a Washington-based think tank.

A sleazeball is someone that mocks the handicapped because they write means things about you.

I don’t lie at all. I tell the truth and watch the gnashing of teeth from folks like you.

Trumps anger is more than justified given the Cruz tactics of cheating.

Go ahead, elect another foreign born with an obscure past.
I want an American who loves this country.

No, its not ok, even WHEN Hillary does it. What I’m suggesting is that Trump and Carson are such pathetic candidates that they can’t weather such shenanigans then they should drop out. That goes for all the Republican candidates, Cruz included. If the Republic primary is to rough and difficult to navigate without injuring their sensibilities, then they will be devoured by Hillary in the general. I have no use for weak, whiny candidates. If you get swung at, fight back, and fight back hard enough to win. Trump and Carson and their supporters are making excuses for not winning. Excuses are like a_ _holes. Everybody’s got one.
