I hope everyone is cool with our two anti-establishment guys taking 1 and 2.

I just wish they’d stop breaking on each other.

EXACTLY. Some people have gone nuts on here thinking they are helping their guy. They are not.

A Harvard educated government lawyer with financial ties to Wall St. doesn’t exactly fit the mold of an authentic anti-establishment figure, wouldn’t you agree?

I’d prefer Trump ignore Cruz.

They both want to win. That’s good. Competition never hurts. It only sharpens and strengthens, brings up in the bucket what’s down in the well. Unfortunately, whether it’s the IA Carson stuff, the “vote fraud” mailers, the porn star ad, the Rubio claims, Cruz has made a number of “unforced errors” that are really costing him.

Trump pulled his negative ad.

Agreed, but this is presidential politics and you got two mega type a personalities who don’t want to play second fiddle to anyone else. That said, I know we all talk about a Trump/Cruz ticket, and that would seem impossible with the rhetoric between the two of them, but if you really want to bust the GOP and the establishment to smithereens and start over this would be the duo that would get it done.

>>I just wish they’d stop breaking on each other.<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I agree, but Cruz is built to not go down without a fight, and unfortunately that means he has to go negative against the leader . . . like saying he would appoint liberal justices and a few other unfounded assertions.

Of course Trump is Trump. He will always hit back harder than he has been hit.

Despite all that, they were both head and shoulders above the others on the stage.
