Now he’s trying to use the vets as a campaign tool.

One of Teds Super PACs is offering to give Veterans groups
1.5 million if Trump will debate Cruz.
Since they have put 1.5 million on the table, why taunt Veterans support groups with it. Just write a check, give it to them, and stop using an imaginary help offer to Veterans as a tool to boost Cruz.
Injecting needy Veterans into the campaign is a horrible political ploy.

Vacuity is a epidemic around here lately.

[Rubio & Trump both wiped the floor with Cruz. Cruz lost so bad he was reduced to clapping like a seal.]

Which explains the desperation coming from Cruz to debate Donald.

Cruz is going to get his clock cleaned from Paul’s and Rubio’s double team.

The ball is on Ted!s twenty yard line with three minutes to go in the game. Also you are up by 9. You run the clock out if you have any football sense. Ted can keep chirping all he wants. Walking into a trap play set up by Fox or Teddy and the Kruxxers is for losers.

He’s not afraid of that nitwit Megyn Kelly. He is demonstrating to all who are willing to see, that Fox has its finger on the scale. Speaking of scales, some ought to be falling from eyes, right about now, with respect to Fox News.

You okay with Fox bringing in a Muslim activist, a former illegal alien, and a Black Lives Matter character as questioners in a GOP debate? (Forget Trump, would that have been okay in 2012 with Mitt?)

Megyn Kelly is a footnote here. However, she has a mole on her staff, and they tipped off Trump. What matters is the knucklehead statement they released in advance of the debate, and now finding how they intended to sandbag him with these screwball characters.

Do you think they would have done this to Jeb Bush or Marco Rubio?

Then Ted made it worse with the “I’ll give money to the vets” to get on your Merry go Round.

I think he is rightly going to tell him to pound sand.

It’s amazing how good Republicans are at picking the wrong candidate.

Why did we pick McCain?

Admittedly, the fervor was burning hot for the First Black President and we might not have won anyway.

Why did we pick Romney ?

A bland, middle-of-the-road decent guy but very disappointing in his debates with Obama. As bad as Obama’s first term was, it should have been a shoo-in

But maybe we didn’t have any great candidates running those two times.

We have one this time. Ted Cruz is everything conservatives have ever wanted. A proven Senator who kept his promises. A man with a plan and a decent man.

Yet we seem bound and determined to pick the Blond Blowhard. He’s not attractive, he’s not consistently conservative, he’s petty and domineering. Not a nice guy.

How sad it is.

Cruz probably does know about the rule on non-sanctioned debates. Isn’t the penalty that they can’t participate in future Republican debates? Maybe Ted’s afraid his Canadian birthright might come up.

Um, Cruz needs to give this a rest. This is getting old real fast. Debates are not what makes a resilent leader and President.

Hopefully, FReepers and conservatives will snap out of the Donald’s spell when Ted Cruz wipes the floor with him in Iowa.

All debates must be sanctioned by RNC. the fact that one of his PACS is funding shows there is cooperation between his campaign and the PAC. Looks like trouble ahead for Cruz

Yep!

He knows his offer will rejected. He’s just putting on a publicity stunt. See too, Trump telling Cruz to get a declaratory judgment. Same concept, the deal won;t be consummated, but the public draws from the challenge, what it will.

Of course he knows. It’s an empty offer, from an empty suit.

Absolutely, I am okay with a conservative taking on leftists. Conservatives should be able to knock the questions out of the park with ease. Trump, however, would fail. He cannot argue the conservative position against a leftist. Being a lifelong leftist himself, the language of conservatism is foreign to him. He would be manhandled by teenage questioners.
