Donald has plenty of attorneys. Do you really think he didn’t talk to them before saying that.
And there is a process to get a Declatory Judgement. There is clearly a controversy. It’s in all the papers with legal experts weighing in on both sides.
If Federal court, a "controversy" means there has to be parties on both sides of the issue bringing the case to court. If Cruz brought it to court himself, who would he sue?

Yes, but the first step in the process is that someone with standing would have to sue Ted over the eligibility question - there has to be an actual case before the court. Then Ted could ask for a declaratory judgment to resolve the case. If Ted went to court on his own with no opposing party, he would be asking for an advisory opinion, which the court will not give.
So once again, if Trump's true concern is for Ted to be able to get this behind him, he could sue Ted himself so Ted could ask for a Declaratory judgment. If he REALLY wanted to help, he would choose not to oppose the request for declaratory judgment. Do you really think Trump will do that?
