GOP frontrunner Donald Trump took to Twitter Wednesday morning to blast Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), saying he "didn't win Iowa, he stole it" and that the results should be "nullified."
Ted Cruz didn't win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated. Bad!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 3, 2016

I have not decided who to support but this crybaby stuff is really turning me off. As I watch the talking heads and read the vitriol here I’m convinced we will lose badly as a house divided.
None of them are perfect but all are better than the alternative and already I see too many here who profess to care about this country ready to stay home next Nov. Why not just vote for Bernie or Hill and then come back her for four more years crying that you had to make an F’n stand. Grow up all and pick the lesser of two weevils and try not to destroy the last man standing.
I think the mocking in the graphic was of Trump, not of Carson. I’m assuming here that you consider Carson a victim, not Trump.
No one should mock Carson, he is a thoroughly respectable man, but in my opinion the root cause of the entire fiasco is that he and his campaign were careless about the message coming from their campaign.
There is a good case to be made that the Cruz campaign should have sent out a “stand down” note when they knew Carson in fact was not withdrawing, and I think that is the basis of the Cruz apology. But none of this would have happened if Carson and his campaign had been attentive to their messaging.
Why keep bringing up the 'loss' in Iowa? Nothing's going to change and I don't think Cruz supporters are going to turn cold on their guy.
You HAVE to be kidding. I was here on FR several months ago when Donald Trump was VICIOUSLY attacking Ben Carson. I defended Carson, saying that it wouldn't be good for Trump, either, because evangelicals liked Carson's back story.
I was attacked by Trumpsters then, while they screamed insults at Carson.
Don't play concern troll with me. Trump does NOT care about Carson's votes, and neither do you.
Carson got MORE votes than he polled.
I am so done with this sore loser Trump stuff.
What is Cruz and Don are playacting , exposing the corruption by drawing attention to electoral process.??
WOW is right when trumpbots start going to Rove.
You guys are trying to ruin him for fighting the wrongs of the world.
Uh, no. I am fighting him because he is a universal healthcare loving, Planned Parenthood funding, property right usurping liberal.
Does Trump wear diapers???
Depends maybe??
What a whining sore looooser.
“I’m winning.”
“I’m gonna win.”
“The other guys are losers!”
“I think I might buy a farm here.”
“I didn’t really try that hard to win.”
“Maybe I shouldn’t have skipped the debate.”
“I was robbed!”
Mountain meet molehill
Who did this to Cruz? It was the Cruz campaign. Thats who.
Two of the most ignorant moves ever done ths early in the election.
Makes a good many folks hesitate In his support.
Trump, on the other hand, needs to shut up and put up. NH is a few short days away and he has his chance there.
I see a Bush surge if this doesnt stop. So, how many will hurrah when their boy loses to the least favorite among the bunch?..that being Jeb Bush?
Take a look at the recent polls from NH. If that does not make you assinine manure throwers start to reconsider, nothing will.
Enjoy your communist POTUS if you cant stop it.
well he has grown up now.
Your bitching about phone calls now? I thought it was mailers and gossip. Had Trump put the necessary effort and resources into Iowa he would have won by a big enough margin that none of your conspiracy theories could ever have overcome. He didn’t put that effort in because he believes the crap coming from his supporters that he has this primary election in the bag.
BTW, the rival campaigns are reporting that Trumps NH precinct captains again lack the basic contact information necessary to get his GOTV effort to his target voters, just as they lacked it in Iowa. He’s buying into the NH polls just like he did the Iowa polls. He may indeed win the geographically friendly NH primary but it will be by low single digits. And the second place finisher will be an establishment candidate such as Cruz or Rubio and THAT will be the story heading into SC. Trump has already lost control of the media narrative and the coverage he is now getting is rerun video of his infantile temper tantrums and sore loser speeches. You are watching a flailing candidate as he fails to meet the very expectations that he himself has set. “I’m a winner, vote for me I never lose, I win so much you’ll get sick of winning.”
The Trump melt down is making Jeb look like a man.
Can we give him a pacifier and blanket? Maybe a safe space.
I think the man is losing it.
Well if someone we know could tell the truth and quit playing games of deception...

Trump was in control in front 12K size crowd about two hours ago. He was doing just doing fine.
