So it’s ok for Cruz to say Trump lacks judgement to be President, to put the finger on the button thing out there, but not ok for Trump to say the same thing about Cruz.
I wish they would both lay off each other, no matter how obvious that might look to the media, because we need both options at this point. But I’d say calling someone who is a sitting senator a “maniac”, especially when he’s had to fight that exact same charge from his own turncoat party, by a man who up to now has not been in the political process, is a little more harmful. Cruz has taken a lot of flak from his own party for years, for being one of the few, sometimes the only, senator who abides by conservative principles and the reasons conservative voters sent him to Congress. I will always defend him because he’s put his own azz on the line when he had something to lose, from his own so-called party colleagues.
It would be ok if Trump responded by saying Cruz lacks judgement to be President, to put the finger on the button. But instead, Trump said Cruz is a “bit of a maniac”. I WAS starting to like Trump more than Cruz, do to his comments on temporarily halting islamic immigration. But now, I’m solidly back in the Cruz corner.
Big difference between a public attack and a private strategy session with your supporters.
