....more times than not already Cruz has “counseled” Trump....and as much Trump has mirrored Cruz on the issues.


Do you have a link as to what, exactly, Cruz has “counseled” Trump on? First I’ve heard of this. TIA

I see it as just the opposite regarding the “mirroring”. (Especially on immigration issues like “deporting” and building the Trump Wall. Very glad to see Cruz coming around on those issues, though.)

<<<<..." Very glad to see Cruz coming around on those (trump) issues"....>>>>>

You must be kidding....Cruz has been fighting on the front lines on those very issues in Washington and even now doing so...and he's got the scars to show for it...... Trumps simply "borrowed" them and given them his own drama and emotional twist to appeal to his supporters. But he has no history in fighting for them...talk is cheap, especially when laced with drama and showmanship tactics.

But of course it would be natural for Trumps supporters to fall into line since Trump has suggested Cruz is 100% behind his positions in one of his interviews.... it's understandable they would believe there is no history by any others except Trumps recent declarations. ..as if they're new. ...they aren't.

We all know there’s a mutual respect between Cruz and Trump for sure, but there can only be one winner..... Cruz’s subtle jabs at Trump recently are probably just the beginning of Cruz showing what those distinctions are....and of course voters will now 'need' to see a distinction between all of the candidates….. so we can expect this to become more obvious in the weeks ahead.

If you recall...Rush Limbaugh recently said... "Donald Trump is NOT a conservative" .... when compared to Ronald Reagan ....Cruz most defiantly is.....

At any rate...Cruz vs. Trump will be the heavyweight fight in 2016 the Republicans want to see. They’re two outsiders pushing their way into the conversation, one with the money to make it nasty...and the other with a rising star, smarts and savvy to hold his ground.... Imo...Cruz has the 'proven record' .....Trump is at best questionable he needs a cabinet appointment just to get his feet wet....I'll stay with Cruz and his 'proven record'....

you mean just like Cruz mirrored him on universal care? Oh, wait......

just like on property rights and eminent domain? Oh, wait......

Just like on TARP? Oh, wait.....

Just like on earlier shutdowns? Oh, wait......

Just like the Clinton Foundation? Oh, wait.......

Just like bailing out GM and the unions? Oh, wait........

Just like smooching up to Nancy Pelosi after she won speaker of the House? Oh, wait......

You might want to hold off on the “mirror” thing for a while.
