"I'm a big fan of Donald Trump's, but not a fan of government registries of American citizens," Cruz told reporters

Great response. Doesn't speculate on what Trump said or meant, simply states his beliefs. In follow-up questioning Cruz let's reporters know he sees through their attempts to get him to trash another candidate something Cruz previously said he wouldn't do.

Rush just announced that even Cruz fell for the lie.

Yep, he sure did.

Opportunist, anyone?

I’m saying it because of what the reporter said. I know what Trump said. He wasn’t talking about registering anyone. The reporter twisted it. The ones that support her Heiness are sneaky bastards.

I think he did well too but there are certainly FReepers who want to see Trump and Cruz in a match-up and not just the press. Disappointing to say the least. The MSM still has power, don’t they.

Big difference! Obama IS a Muslim!

No difference. Cruz isn't Trumps Mama either.

I totally agree Islam is not a religion it is a criminal ideological murderous cult.

I support Cruz but on this he is dead wrong, the authors of the constitution would not have included islam as a religion unfortunately they thought enough of common sense, reason and logic that it went without saying that cults especially those dedicated under the threat of death to forced submission demanding absolute authority over the entire human race are not religions.

No, Donald Trump Doesn’t Want to Register All American Muslims. It’s Just Another Media Smear.

The Federal Government has most all of that information via Census and income tax records. Military used to put your religious preference on the dog tags which is also entered into their permanent military records.

I agree, and that’s why I said Cruz has to be careful and just say, “I didn’t hear it,” or, “here is my policy. I’m not commenting on what Trump or Carson or someone else says”

Wow!

A GOP POTUS candidate that actually understands and adheres to the US Constitution with regards to his policy positions.

How quaint!

Problem here is that Trump never said anything of the sort. Quite clear the supposed “reporter” was answered on a multi-faceted level by Trump (the main point of which was his wall and the database of known terror organization). The reporter gave a “so your admin would activate that” “That” not being specified and Trump said “yes”... referring to his wall and that we cannot go forward the same way as we have before and were attacked (as in 9/11). Not a Trump supporter- but Cruz should know better than this.

The GOPe is managing this to get us...... YEB!! OK?

Yeah, those rules called the “Constitution”. Cruz seems to know a lot about those rules and regulations. Hey, why don’t we just throw that out the window, and implement “Common Sense”. Please spare me from the Knuckle Dragger Brigade.

What I can’t understand is how Americans and Europeans, knowing about Sharia Law and treatment of women, can continue to support Islam as a Religion, having “Religious” rights. Enough has been exposed and talked about since 9/11 and enough assassinations world wide made by these Islamists, to have finally penetrated the thinking of even the people with the thickest skulls!

The lefties at TX Trib are all commenting as if Trump actually said such a thing. Even the link they provide of supposed video shows no such thing.

Because, apparently, your desire to slander Cruz is greater than your ability to read.
