Donald Trump: Ted Cruz 'Is Like a Little Baby'
CNN/Gant Daily ^ | 1 hour ago | staff

Posted on 02/23/2016 2:40:15 PM PST by drewh

Donald Trump on Tuesday called his GOP presidential rival Ted Cruz “a baby” as he dug in on his attacks against the Texas senator, one day after calling Cruz “sick.”

“I’ve met much tougher people than Ted Cruz. He is like a baby compared to some of the people I have to deal with. He is like a little baby: soft, weak, little baby by comparison,” Trump said at a campaign rally in Sparks, Nevada, after slamming Cruz yet again as “the single biggest liar I have ever dealt with.”

Trump later added, “I’d like to really win in Texas. Wouldn’t that be great? I love Texas. I love Texas. And I think now that (Cruz) has exposed himself as a nasty person who lies a lot, I think he’s going to go way, way down in Texas. So I think we have a shot in Texas.”

A message left with the Cruz campaign seeking comment was not immediately returned.

Trump has leveled an unrelenting barrage of personal attacks against Cruz, calling him everything from “unstable” to a “basket case” and accusing him of lying while also touting the Bible.

The attacks come as Cruz and his allies have laid into Trump’s stances on a number of issues important to conservatives, from Trump’s use of eminent domain laws for personal gain to the New York billionaire’s past support of abortion rights and additional gun control measures.

Trump has since changed his positions on abortion and gun rights.

And while Cruz’s ads use Trump’s own words against him, Trump has accused him of playing dirty.

The latest attack is reminiscent of Trump’s line of attack against former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, whom Trump branded as “low energy” over months of campaigning.

But with Bush now out of the race, Trump is looking for space to fill in his stump speech, which previously included multiple references to Bush’s “weak” nature — an effective foil for Trump’s brashness on the campaign trail.

He hinted at a potential target on Tuesday when he said “Marco Rubio is a nice young man.”

“He hasn’t hit me. No, no, no, he has not hit me. When he hits me, ugh, is he going to be hit. Actually, I can’t wait,” Trump said. “I hope he does (get nasty) because it’s more fun.”

LOL.........

Let’s just hope God doesn’t tick Trump off.""

Idle question: Has anyone ever sued God?

Does Trump have standing to do so?

____________________________________________________

I'm sure the DON can find something that will prove GOD lied. If GOD keeps attacking him, DT will submit a cease and desist letter or he's gonna sue.......

Although we are joking, it is not that far fetched, with the character of Donald who thinks of himself ALL POWERFUL omnipotent crown prince. Delusional Grandeur.

Well someone said today that Obama wants to close Gitmo so they can build huge hotels and get billions from there. A bell went off in my head. Probably put casinos there too, right?

If Trump wins the nomination, any bets on how long it will take the dems to bring out a story from the 80s as to how Trump was taken to court because his company used illegals, who were paid low wages, to build Trump Tower.

It is still unrelenting some days. I have seen the Walsh twitters, these trump zombies are everywhere spewing out the same nonsense.

Need a list of Trump talking points: Liar, Stupid, Moron, Liar, cheat, etc.etc.etc. There is no substance, except he is going to build that Wall, like they know this for a fact. That basically is all they have.

He tweets these points out and his Twits RUN with this breaking news.

Seemed a lot more conservative about a half a year ago and before.
Wonder if it will change back after November?

I’ll make a bet with you.

You show me 2 different posts where Cruz supporters have advocated each of those things and I will donate $25 to FreeRepublic.

If I show you 2 different posts where a Trump supporter advocated each of the things I listed, you will donate $25 to FreeRepublic.

To be clear, 2 different people have to say...

It’s o.k. for a Canadian to be President

or

People can be “too Christian” and people in prayer look stupid...

Same goes for each of the things we listed.

I will give you 5 minutes to take the bet.

I know you won’t because you know the things that you listed are distortions of arguments while the things I listed are actually things that FReepers have said.

Hopefully the harangued non-cultists won’t have found permanent new homes by then. I now totally get the Rudy purge.

He and his supporters have driven off a lot of people, and it isn't over yet....by the time he finishes with his grade school tactics he won't have anyone left come the General.

They may soon catch on to what they have done and try to make changes, but it will be to late. Most would now never vote for him based oh his tactics of destruction.

Who would let a robber in their house, who promises not to rob them? nuts.
