"Cruz started the cynical jabs with his 'name on airplane' attack on Trump - Class envy stuff. "

Mischaracterization. Cruz's remark concerned the name on the plane, not the plane itself.

"Trump never followed up with his answer to the reporter about Cruz's citizenship until Cruz started to speak out. Check the timeline. Cruz figured he could take his jabs without getting hit back."

Of course not. This isn't Cruz's first campaign and he's aware that's not how it works.

"Trump is also hitting Cruz with his attachments to the donor class and with Cruz's sudden 'build the wall' campaign rhetoric."

So is that the new meme the Trump fans are circulating--"the donor class?" Interesting.

Only the super-rich elite would be able to run for office without donors. Is that what we're after now?

"Trump is the only candidate that is not controlled by the donor class."

See above.

" For all the religious reasons you may like Cruz - and rightfully so - this election needs to be about what Trump is about. And yes, it means taking a chance."

Why do you assume religion is the reason behind Cruz's support?

Sure... sure, like how he also remarked about how he stayed in IA instead of flying back to a posh NY pad. Sure... Sure. Not even a nice try.

"I feel confident that I'm never going to have a plane with my name on it," he said at a church. "How do you run a grassroots campaign? It's very time intensive. It's labor intensive. You don't do it sitting back in the easy chair. You don't do it from a TV studio in Manhattan."
