Methinks i might just go dark, no matter what i say somebody with a complex gets bent out of shape.

I'm about there myself. I'm really worried that all this infighting will allow for a Bush to slip through. (like McCain and Romney did). Bush's poll numbers in SC are rising.

Edible, eligible it’s all the same. It passed the FR spell checker.

I need more coffee.

Wouldnt it be ironic if Trump made himself a sweetheart deal and hands the election to the democrats.

You haven't been paying attention.

There are two recipients of this message to Cruz. Hillary is getting a cc with a personal note from Trump.

Trump's attacks on Cruz will look like a parlor game compared to his evisceration of Hillary.

This is turning into a clown show before our eyes.

“But the anger and hatred directed at Trump is amazing to me.”

The smaller the trough, the meaner the hogs!

Every day their trough shrinks as Iowa gets closer.

"Was Trump a liar when he said he wouldn’t be the one filing suit or is he a liar now?"

It's best to just generally go with "Trump is lying when he opens his mouth."

That said, I hope he does this. Boy do I hope.

Keep digging.

This would be a bad move for two reasons:

1. He probably doesn't have the legal standing to pursue the case in the first place.

2. It will send a clear message to voters that Donald Trump is afraid of Ted Cruz, which is the worst message you can possibly send if you are running as a bold, fearless, in-your-face candidate.

LOL, it helps to have a sense of humor, and you obviously do!

I need more coffee.

Don't we all, lol

The issue is those loans don’t fit the narrative that Cruz has created for himself. Sneaking them by with “they may be legal and if not the report will be changed” doesn’t change that.

I am wondering if that’s why Trump may do this but when I read other articles, they say Cruz is nasty. I don’t believe the latter for a second.

Nothing’s amiss. This IS Trump. It’s the person he is and has always been.

Support him, vote for him, and this is what you’ll get. It’s time for people to honestly ask themselves if he is the kind of man you want in the White House

When Trump said that he’d like to talk to Ted about how he’d feel about filing suit...Trump was being a smart ass...listen to the video. Trump was being quite the jerk this morning.

Obama opened that barn door and now others feel emboldened to walk through. Just another standard that has been torn down by O. Personally, I don’t want to see a Canadian born win the presidency, no matter how many judges say its okay.

Yeah its that time to tread lightly, reminds me of some news not too long ago that when most people are asked who they support they respond, “Cruz!”

Though they will always support Trump.

Because its just too darn confrontational.

He should. This needs to be resolved one way or another.

Trump will not argue the case against Cruz. He will hire lawyers in Constitutional law to do that.

And I doubt Cruz would represent himself.

I agree with you both. For the first time, I no longer look forward to reading FR. I support Cruz, like both, and will happily agree that a rational case can be made for either.

So many of the attacks in FR posts seem unrelated to conservative philosophy. It’s like Eric Cartman is posting here under 20 different names.

Why can’t we just get along?
