Trump: I’ll ‘go to war’ with Cruz if he rises higher
The Hill ^ | 11/16/2015 | Mark Hensch

Donald Trump said Monday he is capable of turning on Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) in their competition for the GOP’s 2016 presidential nomination.

“If he catches on, I guess we’ll have to go to war,” he told host Joe Kernen on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”  “We’ll see what happens but so far we haven’t,” Trump continued. "He’s been very supportive [and] we have a lot of the same ideas.

“Well, he’s been very nice and supportive of everything I’ve said, more than anybody else.”

He's already floated a few people for VP. . . .

Including Oprah Winfrey. The Donald said of Oprah as his running mate: "I think Oprah would be great. I'd love to have Oprah. I think we'd win easily, actually."

Says the liberal who equates the Confederate flag with the Nazi flag in order to atone for your, quote, “racist Southern parents.”

And yet he takes their money and supports their globalist agenda...go figure.

Cruz has taken in what? about 32 million. Cite the globalist money that Cruz has taken in.

There’s a big problem with that theory.

Cruz was advocating a border fence in 2013. What was Trump doing then?

Reality show, wasn’t it?

Cruz advocated for a wall in 2011.

You see the great possibilities I do. We can also add that Trump resonates with the people and his people skills are exceptional...something Cruz can also learn a bit about.

If Trump makes the nomination, I’ll vote for him but I’ll vote for Cruz for the nomination.

For. Crying. Out. Damn. Loud.

I’m tired and not writing a damned legally binding contract. Of all the people that ping me, or I read, it is not many. When you isolate them, it is plenty.

Well said. Cruz is a lawyer and a politician. Trump has fought and won his battles in the REAL WORLD. Trump has a skill set no other competitor in either party has and will make a great president.

Dear Mr. Trump.
Can you lower yourself to tell us why?

"We" already elected one self-styled tyrant by mistake. Twice.

The Iran deal has no constitutional backing at all, and it is the corker provisions that made that so.

Without Corker, it would take a 2/3 vote in the senate for President Cruz to dump the deal, but due to the failure of the deal to conform to Corker, all it will take is the declaration that it failed.

I know, this is a bit deep for you.

Yes, Trump is very anxious for them to come back under his amnesty.

Thanks for posting that.

Cruz’ wife was on a temporary internship to the CFR, to fulfill a job requirement. She never was a member, nor ever will be.

Thanks for the trolling!
