The word pussy is a diminutive for the word pusillanimous.

Of course it can also mean cat.

I’d rather hear salty language from a “politician” than a LIE from a politician ANY DAY OF THE WEEK !

I’m really hoping Trump does sue him on eligibility to get clarification for future elections.

Maybe after Trump trounces him in S.C. or on Super Tuesday, and it has become super obvious Trump doesn’t need to sue him as a tactic to win, Trump will do us all a favor and force a resolution to the eligibility questions. He needs to sue Rubio too. I don’t think either one is qualified.

But when Roger Calero can get on the ballot when he is not even a citizen but a green card holder, then the system needs work.

I think Trump is setting these guys up. This will turn out to help him, in the end. Watch.

You are extremely naive if you believe Trump will have any more success other than working well with the other side

Let's see...Trump has controlled the media from the get-go, neutered the GOPe, ended the campaigns of those who have attacked him.

Trump is MUCH more of a doer than any other candidate.

The other candidates are just big talkers.

Are people really trying to make a big deal that Trump happened to recite a vulgar word that another woman used to describe Cruz? Get a grip.

I’m with you on settling the issue. My issue is Trump is extremely thin skinned and as a liberal used to taking everything to court when he doesn’t get his way.

Lol trust me if he wins he won’t get ANYWHERE in legislation and Congress...and if he does all will be locked through the courts.

You are naive to think otherwise..how’d that work for Obama ? Bush before him? It didnt

Certainly unprofessional.

I wonder if he has higher standards for those he employs than he does for himself. Do his receptionists regularly fling vulgarities around on the job and name call?

But at a rally Thursday in an arena in Baton Rouge, La., Mr. Trump's supporters treated his profane remark about Mr. Cruz like the hit song of a touring rock band, pleading with him to let it rip again.

They're all saying, "Do it! Do it!" he told a clamorous crowd of nearly 10,000, acknowledging their chants.

Trump supporters in all their glory. Crass, crude, brain dead and incredibly stupid:

I think understanding the court system is going to server Trump well as President. Of course that’s one area where Cruz really does have the advantage, since Cruz is a lawyer. But it’s pretty much the only advantage Cruz has.

Is that why Trump has the highest negativity rating of any presidential candidate in the entire history of Gallup polling?
Setting them up huh? Ok then

He’ll still do better than the Paul Ryans and Mitch McConnells.

Still dredging up old news, that’s pretty pathetic.

I suppose you’re PO’d because your candidate usually holds his rallies in a phone booth, and a really big one at a small diner.

I do prefer Cruz as a consistent conservative but it’s all become one giant clown show truthfully. The whole thing is. Conservatism died years ago and any hope of it returning along with it. We are now ruled by the uniparty emperors and we the public have become the jesters.

American idol now rules the day

While I don’t want him I do hope that should he reach the office he truly does do everything he says. History in his positions state otherwise

We shall see

Trump has managed to figure out how to build skyscrapers in places with Byzantine bureaucracies, not the least of which is New York City.

I don't think that half the Republican candidates or any Democrat candidate (or Obama) could figure out how to change a flat tire if he or she was marooned alone in the middle of Death Valley and their lives depended on it.
