Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) thinks NBC was wrong to cut off its business relationship with real-estate mogul and television personality Donald Trump.
"When it comes to Donald Trump, I like Donald Trump. I think he's terrific. I think he's brash. I think he speaks the truth," Cruz said Tuesday morning on Fox & Friends.
Trump, like Cruz, is campaigning for the GOP presidential nomination in 2016.
The day before, NBC said it was dumping Trump because of controversial comments the candidate made about Mexican immigrants. During his campaign announcement, Trump accused Mexico of sending its rapists and drug dealers to America.

No he’s not on my radar. I don’t consider him serious, frankly. Just because Cruz goes on a F&F show I quit watching years ago doesn’t give his thoughts about him any more credence to me. To me Cruz is just being polite and non-confrontational
Let’s all meet back here in 6 to 9 months and see what shakes out. My bet is that Trump has moved on.
I didn’t take your comment as derogatory. I have nothing against Cruz being insightful and considerate when discussing other same-party candidates. I’d likely have done the same. It doesn’t mean I bit the worm, either.
[I think he’s brash.]
So the title could just as well have been: ...NBC for cutting ties with ‘brash’ Donald Trump but, I guess, ‘terrific’ sounds way more of an endorsment of Trump by Cruz, doesn’t it.
Radio this morning was making fun of Trump claiming NBC Fired him. They had put a little recording with quotes from him. Repeated his claim "to know how jobs are created and destroyed" about 12 times.
I'm sitting there thinking, yeah keep making fun of him. You're driving home the point that he can create jobs.
But when you or I say it, how many people hear us?
And THAT’S the point.
There is no way I want Trump for president, but I welcome his megaphone supporting ideas that Cruz has been espousing.
Amen and AMEN!
Didn't Sarah Palin just have a run in with NBC.
I posted earlier today that I thought Trump was actually a help to Cruz. He and Cruz are the only two that have the guts to speak out and fight.
No, he wouldn’t. It’s one thing for school girl crushes to be exposed by more knowledgeable posters on a forum...it’s quite another for the candidates to talk about each other. This is the Newt Gingrich “any of the 8 of us on this stage would be far better” meme - which is the right meme.
Ted Cruz Ping! bingo
Nor I, yours. Just your response (which I agree with 100%) was on a different subject (the press setting the agenda in general) from what I was trying to convey in the first place (Cruz didn't pick the topic of Trump). Not that it mattered in the least, and maybe you got my gist in the first place, I figured it was worth the time to clarify what I meant in the first place.
“And BTW, Cruz is pure class. So far, he has supported many of these guys, while few have reciprocated.”
Hopefully, potential voters will see this, and vote accordingly.
I like The Donald too but I’m afraid he may be cast in the Ross Perot role in the next presidential election containing a Clinton.
Your fifty posts for Cruz do not make up
for his one important TREASONOUS vote for ObamaCARE and
its SECRET empowerment for Obama-the-Undocumented.
Maybe I'll just sit home on Election Day.
Trump is only about increasing the value of his name for future business projects. Trump is the modern day P.T. Barnum. Self promotion to increase the value of the “Trump” label has served Trump well his entire life.
