The day before last week's debate, Trump told us it was Democrats we needed to worry about when it came to Cruz's eligibility. Why, he had only raised the issue because he feared that his good friend Ted would have a cloud over him as nominee if he didn't seek a declaratory judgment about his "natural-born" status. That's just the kind of thoughtful pal he is. Three days later, after the punch-up at the debate, a New York Times reporter asked him whether he might sue Cruz himself. Response: "I'll think about it. It's not something that I would want to do. It's certainly something I would have standing to do." Twenty-four hours later, after Cruz spent a day on the trail in South Carolina savaging Trump as a fake conservative, Trump had moved a bit further. Here'd what he told Stephanopoulos yesterday on "This Week":
Stephanopoulos told Trump that some legal scholars have suggested Trump himself would have standing to sue Cruz.
"Oh, that's an interesting case. Wow, that sounds like a very good case. I'd do the public a big favor," Trump responded, but he would not say whether he'd actually file such a suit. "It's a good idea - maybe I'll talk to them about it. I'd like to talk to Ted about it, see how he'd feel about it. 'Cause you know, when I file suits, I file real suits."

Your post is ridiculous. And not funny.
I like Trump. I like Cruz. But I don’t like the way Trump is going after Cruz. No point to it. The citizenship issue (if any) will sort itself out. Very short-sighted on Trump’s part, IMO. Why alienate Cruz supporters you might need later?
Good thinking and possibly true. Yes, the Donald does have a very big mouth that spews BS most of the time.
Is this better?
1. Timing
2. For $6 million he could have done a hell of an investigation.
Please do it, Donald, so that you can remove any doubt what a dumb-ass you are. To be honest, I’ve been skeptical of Trump from the beginning, but I’ve been willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
It’s not denial. Cruz believes, based on his expertise and experience in constitutional law, that he is a natural born citizen and therefore qualified to run for the presidency. It’s up to that gas bag and the rest of the whiners to pursue the matter. They brought up the issue; they should be the ones to bring it to court.
However, my guess is that the courts will say they don’t have standing or find some other way to avoid the issue.
So Trump like Mark Twain's dad got real educated real fast or he has a poor sense of discernment (like giving money to Hillary and Sharpton)...
Which one Trumpsters???
Hilarious!
Oh, so he’s threatening to sue Cruz? Even after he “promised” during the debate that he wouldn’t?
Trump’s word means absolutely nothing apparently. How could anyone support a guy who regularly breaks his word like that...
God Bless you, Servant, and than you for saying what I have been thinking for years!
Does anyone else notice that Donald Trump follows all of the Rules for Radicals by Saul Alinsky? Could he be a conservative student? Don’t know if that is feasible, but his style is definitely different for a Republican Conservative. Just asking, I have not made any choices yet, but am leery of “anyone but Hillary” thinking.
So you don’t think he loves his kids or ever shows affection towards them?
It’s about time our side started using Alinsky tactics. Nobody can argue their effectiveness.
I’m almost surprised that some liberal democrat hasn’t referenced the picture you posted and called Ted Cruz a pervert for letting two underage girls sit on his lap!
