Donald Trump's questions about Ted Cruz's citizenship may not be helping him in Iowa. In fact, they may be boosting his rival according to one group of Hawkeye State voters.
In his latest focus group, pollster Frank Luntz asked if the fact that Cruz was born in Canada, to an American mother, raised legitimate concerns about his eligibility for president, as Trump has suggested. Only six of 27 participants raised their hands, even though seven identified Trump as their first-choice candidate.
One participant said the issue exposes Trump as "unserious," while another called it a "joke."
"Just a few months ago, he said his strongest lawyers said it's a settled issue and Cruz is eligible," one participant said. "Now three months later, when Cruz overtakes him in the polls, he says the exact opposite... It's not a serious issue at all."(continued)

Yeah, it must be tough with Trump’s jammed pack venues to find other points of view...right? LOL.
Looks like my prediction that Trump’s attempts to question Cruz’ citizenship will backfire and help Cruz may turn out to be right!
Even though Iâm a Trump supporter I would like to see Ted win Iowa. Ted deserves a win and Trump needs to be taken down a notch. It may be the last loss for Trump though.

Simply unbelievable logic.
It helps to have a candidate who sounds like he actually likes conservatives.
Confirms my opinion that Iowa voters aren’t very bright.
Ted Cruz’s Surge is Real: Now Leads in California

Interesting watching Cruz supporters go to the Lame Stream Media for solace.
You must be one of them “stupid Iowa voters.” trump has such a way with words.
Desperate times call for desperate measures
Funny. I see lots of Trump supporters crowing about polls and MSM articles to push their candidate. How is it that it’s only bad when a Cruzer does it. That some definitively leftist logic you be employing ‘dere sport. Of course you did that with Romney as well.
Didn’t think anyone would notice?
Desperate people always make bad decisions.
Only 20 days until Iowa we get to find out for sure. Even if Cruz manages to eke out an Iowa win. He’s not going to win many more if any.
We’ve cited polls across the spectrum; you folks have to go to the MSM and other sources for editorials dismissing Trump.
Yes, I voted for Romney rather than give a Marxist another four years to complete his destruction on our nation.
BTW, I will gladly vote for Trump or Cruz.
It’s rather strange that someone that would ‘gladly’ vote for someone is so eager to trash them. Sounds like pure crap to me.
The empty bleating of an ignorant loud mouth who wouldnt even recognize the constitution if he saw one?
Especially given that Ted Cruz’s poll numbers have been shooting up since Trump started his attacks 4, 5 weeks ago?

Nice try Joe, but you folks are not acting like people who are confident; you’re acting like unhinged kooks. You go to the Liberal Media and Red State to hear the words you desperately want to hear.
If Trump is truly self destructing, you folks would simply let him be, but you won’t. Listening to you folks is like listening to the liberal media. It really is sad to watch.
RE: Ted Cruzâs citizenship should matter..There is no way Cruz is a NBC
