Trumps mother was an American citizen in 1942, 4 years before he was born unless what I have read about it is incorrect. Either Cruz is a squared away and brilliant legal type or he’s not. I believe he is and he knew all along about his Canadian issues. You can believe what you like.
I assume he had many times he needed to present a birth cert. Not difficult to see it was from Canada, even if he left there at age 4.
“Trumps mother was an American citizen in 1942,”
I’m not questioning his mother’s status, but I still bet Trump checked into it to be sure, but only after he decided to run for office.
“Either Cruz is a squared away and brilliant legal type or he’s not.”
Not knowing something doesn’t make you “not squared away” or “not brilliant”. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt until proof is shown otherwise.
Trump certainly doesn’t know much so by your logic, you admit that Trump was either not very smart, not very squared away, or just plain dishonest with 30 years of supporting liberal ideology and policies, including $250k donations to the Clintons and donations to anti-gun McAuliffe in 2015? Cruz may have been wrong on one issue, but Trump has been wrong on them all so we definitely don’t want Trump for President!
Again, you can’t be objective or credible if you fail to treat the candidates the same. You refuse to give the same deference to Cruz as you do to Trump, despite actual proof that Trump has severed honesty and credibility issues.
