Donald Trump is taking aim at Republican presidential rival Sen. Ted Cruz, a tactical shift that could be risky on two fronts: It may have come too late, and the Texas senator might actually be benefiting from the attacks......
For Mr. Cruz, being under attack by other Republicans is a badge of honor, another backer said. "It's a quasi-endorsement of Cruz to the grass roots," said Saul Anuzis, former Michigan GOP chairman.
Polls show a growing number of Trump backers see Mr. Cruz as their second choice. Cruz spokesman Rick Tyler said that when the campaign began, polls showed that only 4% of Trump backers saw his boss as their second choice. A new poll by NBC/SurveyMonkey finds that number has risen to 39%.
The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found that 66% of Trump voters said they would consider supporting Mr. Cruz -- far more than other major candidates....

Cruz IS eligible to run. Only the Supreme Court has the power to take that away from him.
If Cruz wins the nomination he gets my vote no question. Not a single TDS sufferer, can honestly say they would vote for Trump if he wins the nomination. That is the difference...they prefer Hillary!
Only 50 states secretaries-of-state can keep him off their respective ballots.

I have the Eastern Airlines stewardess uniform. It was handed down to me and it looks great on.
Trump use to praise Hillary as a likely to be a great president. He funded her and Bill. He said Bill’s lying, sexual harassment, perjury, and obstruction of justice were unimportant. He only turned on them when she interfered with his new found ambitions. Since then, he’s praised Putin and Kim Jong Un. Trump has no common sense and no common decency.
Great point. Once a crony capitalist, always a crony capitalist. Trump just wants to gain a bigger grip on the financial power that comes with greater politics, like his pals the Clintons did.
DU called and they miss you over there! Please go back and take their talking points with you.

Trumps use of emminent domain is simply for his own profit, not the public weal. Come on man, we can get by without Trump’s stupid casinos.
That hair is funny because it’s not his natural hair. It was grafted in repeated surgeries from the sides. It makes him really look like a clownish figure.

You are the poster person for TDS. It’s comical.
With so many legal experts and Cruz himself stating this is a non-issue,
Mr. Trump’s choice of adviser in this matter makes me wary of his choices when it comes to appointments. Is this man one of the great experts he will depend on for crucial issues?
You should worry more about Cruz’s health plan...courtesy of Goldman Sachs!
Like I've been saying...
Why?
Because now the lofos know Cruz' name, and they know that Trump doesn't like Ted. So... at the next debate, where Cruz and Trump will be standing side by side, the lofos and everyone else will be tuning in to see a steel cage death match.
What they will see is a presidential Cruz and Trump being... Trump.
I guess Trump isn't a master strategist after all.

Wrong again oh swami. At least you are consistent.
And Cruz looks like he uses that “greasy kid stuff”. /s
TDS sufferers? Probably not. What of those who suffer from CDS? What would they do? But most Cruz/Trump supporters will not be going for Hillary. They’ve been conditioned to hold their noses and pick the Pubbie, no matter how undesirable and, in the case of Trump/Cruz, they will realize that, if the nation is to continue AT ALL, they must continue that course of action.
