Trump: Eh, who cares about that Iowa thing now?
Hot Air ^ | February 5, 2016 | Ed Morrissey

Well, until last night's interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper, it seemed Donald Trump certainly cared a great deal about it. After a brief but gracious silver-medalist speech on Monday night, Trump spent the rest of the week raging on Twitter over Ted Cruz' supposed "voter fraud," demanding a do-over of the Iowa caucuses and investigations by the RNC. After a few days of what Cruz called a "Trumper-tanrum," Trump now wants everyone to just get over it:

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

The day after accusing Ted Cruz of winning the Iowa caucuses unfairly and asking for a rematch in the state, Donald Trump says he's now over it.

"I'm so much into this, into New Hampshire, that I just -- I don't care about that anymore," Trump said in an interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper in Manchester, just five days out from next Tuesday's primary contest here. "This is the place I'm focused on now." ...

In Thursday's sit-down with CNN, Trump said some "strange things" appeared to have happened in Iowa, and that the Cruz campaign's actions likely hurt him more than Carson.

"I like Ben Carson very much and he got pretty roughed up, frankly," Trump said. "Although it affected me maybe more than Ben."

But Trump added: "Who cares?"(continued)

I think Hot Air and the other RINO outlets are going a little too crazy over literally just two pretty vague sentences.

They can't. Every anti-Trump article has to be repeated at least twice. Members of the Cruz cult can't help it, it's a disease, like liberalism.

He’ll be screaming about it again before the New Hampshire primary. He can’t let it go.

Ted Cruz had the unmitigated gall to finish ahead of Touchback Trump. Just who does he think he is?

Trump: I lost so we should have a do-over. As Rush Limbaugh said, “In Donald Trump’s world, any election he doesn’t win is illegitimate.”

Once The Don figures out that a lot of the Paul and Santorum people are likely to wind up with Cruz, he’ll sue to force them back into the race.

Do you have a link to where he has sued someone to get back in the race, or are you just blowing smoke out of a lower rear orifice, yet again? You Cruz sheep just make stuff up, don't you?

Trump cares, as evidenced by his silly accusations against Cruz and near-meltdown.

He was taken aback because the true conservative (Cruz) beat him.

Trump’s advisors obviously reigned him in, as he is now beginning to run a more traditional ground campaign, which he initially thought he could avoid doing.

Cruz is the obvious and best choice for libertarians, evangelicals, and true conservatives.

Lol, Trump whining like a little baby is costing him dearly in the polls.
Very beta.
Cruz will look like the alpha male tomorrow night. He should bring a pacifier and blanket it and hand it to the Donald at the debate. Maybe a handkerchief too for the Donald’s tears.

Trump is saying never mind because voters can see he is falsely attacking Cruz and it makes him look weak and desperate.

Keep it up Donald, you will be back in the Trump tower shortly.

The windsock candidate must have got the memo...his infantile inconsistency on every issue shows his only motivation is based on polls. He breaks wind, his media drones swoon, and all his bobbleheaded flock bleat in unison. The moment the polls favor him, he moves on.

You ever notice that Cruz followers say bad things about Trump, while Trump followers lean towards insults against Cruz followers? So odd, like you are not allowed to vote for Trump if you don’t abandon your manners.
