This is what happens when you kiss Ben Carson and invite him to your party. Herpes and spilled beer.

Ben Carson...the gift that keeps on giving. Trump should ask him to go endorse Ted Cruz.

It’s not the craziest statement I’ve read.

I’m voting for Trump, in part, because there is NOTHING to gain from voting for Cruz, AND there’s nothing to lose anymore as we’re at the brink.

If the country were in great shape, and a non weasel conservative were running against Trump, I probably would vote for him.

That’s not the case.

So go Trump!!!

Had Cruz not campaigned for Obama’s TPA with Amnesty Ryan he likely would be rolling to the nom. Cruz needed to run the table and his unforced errors did him in.

Lol! Now maybe trumpsters will believe Ben really did announce he was going home after Iowa. He’s just stupid sometimes with politics.

I was against him before I was for him, but probably would be against him if the stakes weren’t so high.

What an endorsement.

BEN is holding out for the best deal he can get ... an opportunist at the highest level.

He lost me about six weeks ago, or Started to lose me six weeks ago.

If Trump forks out bucks to fight the delegate fight, he will get 1237.

Could be maybe 250 with CA and NY alone.

His best bet is Education Secretary ... and that's rapidly fading.

if stakes aren’t so high, then why not endorse cruz? It must mean cruz is worst than trump

As usual, a headline with a quote that was never made. And Freepers react and react.

It’s become obvious what Cruz is. You can toss aspersions aside. Cruz has been invited into the GOPe globalists and he’s accepted the invitation.

That on it’s own right justifies not voting for him in the primary or the presidential elections.

It was made. I read it on the internet so it must be true, along with the several other eggs he’s dropped.

Would Cruz get the delegates as part of the deal?

I’m sure trump being the front runner had nothing to do with it. If Jeb had been the front runner he would have endorsed Jeb. Same with Cruz

Of course he was. But when he got trumped by Cruz, he had to stay in a bit longer for the sake of appearances.

What man would support politically someone that compared him to a child molester?
