Trumps change in tone is brilliant. They “know” he can at any time. Great rope a dope(s).
Trump sets the tone, so he’s in charge. The others prepared for a debate which isn’t happening. And if they try to make that other debate happen — if they start fights — they look bad. So Trump is able to play the game he prepared for and they are not.
Cruz making fun of Trump’s numbers - could change tonight.
Cruz - 45% tariff would make the costs go up 45% plus their own tariffs.
Trump - the 45% tariff is a threat. (sssshhhh - dont’ tell other countries)
