It’s just politics. Trump could care less about whether Cruz is a “Natural Born Citizen” or not.

Trump does believe that he is within striking distance of taking first in the Iowa caucuses from Cruz, and believes that if he takes first, he will cruise to the nomination.

These attacks are designed to drive down Cruz’s support. All he has to do to do that is raise doubts.

These attacks aren’t desperate. They are smart, cynical politics. You know, the thing Trump is supposedly running against.

About half the caucus goers don’t even know Cruz was born in Canada. Should they know that before they pick a candidate?

Correct. And if not employed by Trump, it would be employed by some other POTUS candidate.

Already Fiorina and Paul are singing that song. Soon Bush and Rubio.

Trump could care less...

First he attacked Cruz....and all the talk radio folks got on him. So he looked for another way he could ‘disable’ Cruz without criticizing...the tactic he has chosen is to question his eligibility. What is wrong with creating doubt? Isn’t the goal of anyone running to win?????
