"I apologize for using an old joke that liberal Democrats used against McCain when he was running for president in 2000. I realize now that Democrats intended the line as a mean spirited attack on veterans, something that I never intended. I promise never again to act like a Democrat."
How will he do that?
How much has Cruz spent so far?
Trump?
I don't know either, but I'll bet Cruz is outspending Trump 10 to 1, and look who's ahead.
Where is this "divestiture of assets" notion of yours coming from?
Because who has power already and knows how to use it without spending money?
The other candidates aren’t going to learn from Trump. They are beholden to lobbyists and the COC, and big donors. They will jump as high as their donors tell them to. So, it’s wishful thinking on your part to think otherwise.
I think it’s more a case of Trump knowing how to use the pulpit, and Cruz, for whatever reason, can’t or doesn’t.
Take illegals, for example.
Trump isn’t saying anything much different than Cruz, but look how much traction his style of presentation got him. He’s done more in 3 weeks than Cruz has been able to do in 3 years.
That’s why Cruz would, or could, learn a lot as VP under trump.

My sense is that the MSM has already polled the McLame kirfuffle and they find it has not hurt Trump’s standing in the slightest. That is what is behind the article.
