When Ted Cruz and Donald Trump meet on Thursday, it will be their second one-on-one get-together since mid-July. The two are gaining in popularity according to the latest polls released this weekend. They both know Jed Bush is the man to beat for the Republican nomination for President. Also recognized, by penetrating the sacred, powerful and shady capitalist’s protected turf, the vicious fury of the GOP and Democratic leadership is about to be unleashed against them in the media.
Bush, with the power of the Republican establishment in his corner, has raised about $104 million in campaign funds from super Political Action Committees (PACS). Cruz has netted about $37 million while Trump doesn’t need their money. He can be self-funded. Cruz, through private donations, has raised $15 million versus Bush’s $12 million.
Trump appreciates Cruz’s wisdom. Cruz is, after all, intelligent enough to separate from the crowd of presidential contenders, special interest activists, and politicians taking shots condemning Donald Trump. Like a heavyweight champion punching in the face to the media, big business, and big government elitists, Trump keeps pounding.
Millions of citizens, fed up with Washington rhetoric and broken promises, are tempted by Trump's refreshing messages, spiteful and boasting as they are. Cruz is maintaining his brand by delivering his honesty without demeaning the character of his fellow candidates. His sensible approach is to disagree with facts on issues without being loathsome.
Cruz can spar with the best of them. He repeatedly delivers answers to the media many of them don’t want to receive....

Lies.
Ted Cruz and Donald Trump are evil incarnate. Nickcarraway says so.
Well then, if Nick says it - it must be true.
. LOL

Trump will be on Fox and Friends today at 7am est.
Ted Cruz and Donald Trump are evil incarnate. Nickcarraway says so.
Has Nick got his meds adjusted yet? I haven't seen much of his "input" on the more recent Trump articles.
Nick - are you OK?
No offense, but what has Ted Cruz accomplished in the Senate....aside from speeches and positioning?
He only has one piece of legislation that passed....a bill that barred Iranian terrorist ambassador to the UN from entering the US.
Compare that to Governor Walker’s long list of accomplishments in Wisconsin.
I read the article and couldn’t find what Trump did after promising he would do it.
Ths is still more than obama ever did before he ran for president.
I have to wonder what Walker would have accomplished in Wisconsin if he had teammates like McConnell and Boehner working with him?
Ted Cruz is one of one hundred.
He can only take so much credit.
Governors can, and do, take credit for anything done during their administration. Even if they initially opposed the bill or regulation.
I read an article, here on Free Republic, that right after his reelection, Walker told his fellow Republicans in the Wisconsin legislature to back off a bit.
Seems he was already wanting to not be “too extreme” for the moderate voter in a presidential election.
Just do a search on Scott Walker, I’m sure you’ll find it
“No offense, but what has Ted Cruz accomplished in the Senate....aside from speeches and positioning?”
Awareness. Plus, when you are in the minority, there is nothing you can do. In the majority, he is fighting his own party as to the direction this country should go in.
Those speeches and positioning you mention told us more about how Washington operates than anyone could ever imagine. That is what Trump is running his campaign on.
Years ago Trump was blathering about a huge statue of Christopher Columbus-—six feet taller than the Statue of Liberty-—that he and some artist were getting ready to erect on the Hudson River.
He told the New Yorker it was all ready to go up.
So that happened. Yeah.
And then there was Obama’s birth certificate and all the fantastic results Trump’s investigators were digging up. I know we all remember those findings and how they blew the lid off Obama’s presidency.
Yep, Trump is every bit as trustworthy as Cruz.
Ted Cruz Ping! I can't argue with that! lol
Actually, Walker had a good bit of resistance from his own party. But Walker has a talent for bringing them along with conservatism....not by telling them....but by questioning them and getting them to arrive at the right conclusion.
That was the Right to Work legislation. Walker asked them to hold off at the time for two reasons. He wanted to bring more Republicans in support of it and second, he wanted to control the timing for maximum benefit to him.
I see nothing wrong with those things.
Search the Library of Congress website, thomas.loc.gov
Cruz keeps his Powder Dry and Trump fires the Cannon.
Trump can afford the Ammunition.
How about Trump claiming he was going to introduce Def Leppard at one of their concerts?
Or claiming he asked the Iowa State Fair to let him give helicopter rides?
He says a lot of stuff and then a bunch of flunkies have to jump to a CYA operation. Doesn’t always work.
