Cruz: Trump, Carson Campaigns Will Fall, I'll Get Their Supporters
Newsmax ^ | Dec, 10 2015 | Greg Richter

"I think both of them, their campaigns have a natural arc," Cruz says. "And with both of them I think gravity is pulling them down…. Carson is further in that descent."

"You look at Paris, you look at San Bernardino, it’s given a seriousness to this race, that people are looking for: Who is prepared to be a commander in chief? Who understands the threats we face? Who am I comfortable having their finger on the button?

"Now that’s a question of strength, but it’s also a question of judgment. And I think that is a question that is a challenging question for both of them. So my approach, much to the frustration of the media has been to bear hug both of them, and smother them with love

If Trump wins the primary, who will join his team in the general if all of his supporters have alienated absolutely everyone? Bad tactic.

Trump hasn’t stabbed Cruz in the back has he?

Not at all. It does appear that many Trump supporters are trying to do it on this thread. Bad move. It won’t help either candidate.

Don’t be too touchy. Trump says the same sorts of things.

It’s not going to happen and time is running out. But what else is Cruz going to say when supporters or J-schooooool reporters ask him these questions if he is going to win? Of course he is going to say he is going to win. I doubt there is a single candidate who says I’m going to lose. LoL. Only 52 days left until Feb 1st. Trump is now likely ahead in all 50 states including Iowa.

If you've followed Cruz closely outside of Breitbart or Right Scoop type websites, which only report the good stuff, then you'd know it sounds exactly like Ted Cruz.

Cruz's implication that Trump is not a "serious" person will only hurt Cruz, not Trump. Not smart.

I have always been on Cruz’s side though I support Trump, but Cruz has lost any of my respect/support - sorry

Well, if it’s not true, I hope it comes out.

I’m just making a general comment about smart things to do/not do.

OMGOSH...I hope Cruz didn’t say this...oh man, he will not be able to stand up to the viper if he did...he bites back really hard and the others know it...wow...I hope this didn’t happen...

I don’t want anything to happen to either one of them right now, after the nomination, that’s different, but not before...oh Lardy Bee!!!

If your presidential game plan is to hope two others drop out I’d say its shaky at best. :-)

I think Ted has “a natural arc” which peaked out when he attacked our Donald. Adios.

No, he has not !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trump NEVER strikes first, but he hits back far harder than he has been hit by.
