Because he has the right stuff to do it to his face and not through proxies.

Why should it be a surprise to anyone that Trump is going after Cruz. I predicted it the first time the Trump/Cruz friend meme started. It’s nothing compared to the way Trump will trash Palin when he gets around with it. He will spout all the media nonsense about her being stupid and seeing Russia from her house.

I guess it must be NY values. Politics ain’t beanbag. Trump plays to win. Cruz made a huge tactical mistake going after Trump this early in the race.

To win? Every candidate should expect his opponent to point out his weaknesses. Its odd to expect that Trump should only be saying good things about his closest opponent.

Trump’s attacks are not based on policy, they are baseless and personal.

It’s leverage. If Trump can take Cruz out now, it’s all downhill to NH and beyond. No different than working your tail off early in life so you can have an easier tim later.

Like with the others, Cruz started it.

When someone begins the battle, Trump finishes it, not holding back.

Because he wants to be the next "the one".

No holds barred, anything in play to make the deal.

Why is Trump doing this?

He has calculated that it will help him win the general. The MSM still determines how most voters will vote. Being anti-Cruz closes off a MSM line of attack.

I like Trump less for doing it, but I want a Republican to win in 2016.

Because it’s an election?

What do they think Hillary will do? Have a nice chat over tea?

Someone should tell Cruz that presidential elections are not like being debate club or some boring structured dance in the Senate.

If he can’t deal with this, then he needs to stop wasting his time.

Maybe they will team up by this summer? Who knows? I like them both.

Most likely not. But whoever said politics was honorable? I think most Trumpeteers think he will give the’RAT nominee hell whereas the rest will play nice with Hitlery or Sanders or Biden.

Is there a reason Cruz is trashing Trump? (Goose... Gander... you know.)

It’s curious to me that Trump says that he’d be doing the public a huge favor by suing Cruz over his eligibility, but then doesn’t do it.

Man can not see the forest from the trees.

Had he remained an ally to Cruz, he would have lost Iowa, and then probably won 45-49 of the rest of the states, securing the nomination and establishing a conservative-poulist coalition.

Instead he goes full scorched earth, and in the process pisses off Cruz and 10,000,000 conservatives.

Trump must not be as smart politically as we thought,as this is will be a failed strategy.

Why does a scorpion sting or a snake bite??

Trump smears.

That’s a reason many like him.

He throws the most mud and usually first.
