Trump on Cruz’s “rough temperament”: You can’t call your leaders liars on the Senate floor

Golly, I thought populists liked it when Cruz did that. Now it turns out that type of insolence is a liability in a president. Frankly, that attitude sounds ... establishment-y.

I guess it's time for the "Donald Trump scolding other people for incivility" act of this circus.

Donald Trump bashed Ted Cruz's "temperament" and defended his presidential campaign's ground game during an appearance Tuesday at the John Wayne Birthplace Museum.

"Ted has got a rough temperament, you can't call people liars on the Senate floor when they are your leaders. Not a good thing to do if you want to curry favor and get the positive votes later on own," Trump said....

Of course you can! In fact, you must if it's true.

It was a shining, magnificent moment when Ted Cruz called those liars liars on the Senate floor. It was a heroic act and a triumph of truth in a mendacious body of corrupt men and women.

But why is Cruz so naive? It seems unbelievable. He wasn’t born yesterday. He’ s supposed to be such a hotshot litigator. If anyone should be used to people trying to trick them and lie its a lawyer.

If that’s the level of his chess playing I don’t want him in the Presidency. We are supposed to be out-thinking our enemies (and our friends) not taking them at face value and holding out our hands like the occupant of the big house to everyone so they can steal our wallets, destroy our alliances and outmaneuver us at every turn.

Trump operates on a level way above what we are used to. People criticize and hate - because they don’t understand."""".....

Don't mean to offend, but that statement is so very close to being a GOD like statement.

Re GOD: His ways are not out ways..........

Trump is not that smart......

Swing and a Miss for Babe Trump.

Soon enough though, he will knock one over the fence.

Now if he means you call your ‘leaders’ by “sweet purring sounds” before you tear them a new one privately, then I might understand. But I lean toward Donald striking out on this one.

Trump wins. Cruz loses 99-1. That’s the difference. Sorry.

I sent $ too. It did my soul good to see Wilson raise $1 million in 24hrs but as a tactic it is worse than ineffectual. The priceless part of Wilson is that he was so clearly shocked at O lying that the words just rose up out of him.

I don’t think that was the case with Ted. I think it was planned. Once you call someone a liar you have shot all your bullets. The tactic betrays weakness because you are admitting you are impotent to get back at them any other way.

I have the Bible to tell me what Truth is and how to be discerning, but I thank you anyway.

It’s not God statement at all. Watch the video and you will understand what I’m saying.
