There is a difference to my ear. "Question for the states" says to me that Cruz believes SCOTUS decided wrongly and violated the Tenth Amendment.
"Has decided" with no qualifier from Trump indicates Game over. Let's move on.
One of these bows to Judicial Supremacy (which most FReepers once loathed.) One does not.
Could be, but what I heard was each of them holding the discussion at arm’s length. They didn’t want to get into it.
Also, it is important as Rush said, that a lot of the establishment is saying behind the scenes that it is better to support Hillary than Trump/Cruz if either of them win.
We don’t have any doubts about what Hillary will support.
