If Trump goes to war with Cruz I will have to go to war with Trump. So far, I have given Trump the benefit of the doubt.
I have many doubts about Trump.
No kidding. If Trump starts giving Cruz the Carson treatment Trump and I are finished.
This is about the nation, not any one person. Stick to the issues.
Same here. He should be going to war against the Hildebeast and Bernie the commie not fellow Republicans.

My sentiments also.....Trump will lose this bid for POTUS if he doesn't start acting with a modicum of statesmanship....Trump is a good and successful American. Senator Cruz is also a good and very successful Senator. Senator Cruz stands for his love of country, the United States Constitution, and law, no question about it. Mr. Trump will have to tread most carefully in his criticisms of this senator AND, I might add, any truly harsh criticisms of his fellow campaigners unless they be true. Americans don't cotton to bully's. Strong leadership without the nasty side is what we need....Obama has given us both nasty and bully. Enough is enough!
I take it you thought this was going to stay just a bridge game, between Trump and Cruz?
And, I take it you are new to politics? There are not going to be very long-lived Marques of Queensbury Rules, just to easy your delicate sensibilities.
Brace yourself. This is going to get nasty, because this year is a desperate election for America. Trump is a gladiator, and Cruz is no wilting flower himself. He can take care of himself, or should get out of the kitchen, right?
All those silly threads posted that the two of them were in tandem, you know— the good cop/bad cop thing.
I think back to when Trump got the kitchen sink thrown at him, clear back in the beginning, because he was in New York, raised there, doing business there and in doing business even in foreign locations, he needed advice, counsel and favors from representatives, ambassadors, etc., to move on deals.
Naturally, he supported both parties to some extent, but he was always a Republican, and he cheerfully gave to Democrats too. Hell, it was probably a write-off. LOL!
Did he deny ANY of those allegations? No, instead he pleaded “guilty” right out of the gate and said, “ yep, I did it— I did it all”. He was honest and people liked that about him. Still do.
He doesn’t really give a damn who understands it, or likes it. You can do that ONLY when you’re your own man and you’re mad as hell at what is happening to our once great country. People like that about him, too.
Wall Street donors are globalists and they expect favors from whomever it is that they support. Trump is beholden to no one.
Cruz? Not so much. A great guy, Cruz, but hanging with globalists for campaign money is not a plus. Hillary does that crap all day long, herself. It just looks funky. I expect Trump will have to point these facts out. Remember, Trump knows all these guys. He called some of them “killers”, if you recall.
So, yes, I’d be for getting into bloody campaign mode. Just remember, Trump supporters are Cruz for second choice, unless his supporters get to be real jerks and run us off.
My theory is if the Estab succeeds in running off Trump, no other candidate will be able to stand, except the protected and over-funded RINO candidate who is handed the nomination again.
