The Latest on the 2016 presidential campaign (all times local):

Donald Trump says the dispute over Iowa's caucus results, in which he finished second to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is yesterday's news and he's more focused on the next race.
Trump, who on Wednesday was accusing Cruz of election fraud and calling for an Iowa do-over, told CNN's Anderson Cooper that he's so focused on the Feb. 9 contest in New Hampshire that "I don't care about that anymore."
Trump wrote on Twitter Wednesday that "based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified."

Why should he as Carson is continuing to mouth off about it?
Don’t worry. Tomorrow he will probably change his mind again.
Nullify a primary caucus.... unbelievable stupidity.
::GASP::
Trump said something just to stir the pot? And he pretended to care about it?
Sounds like a ...... DIRTY TRICK! Quick, nullify his New Hampshire votes!!!
This leaves certain posters in a quandary.
I find that very hard to to believe.
Time for a new position, which will not bother his followers who see his mercurial and malleable manner as a measure of his greatness.
So one day you threaten to sue, then the next day it’s old news. LMFAO!!!!
Hasn’t Trump achieved a very good result? Now, voters all over the country know about the Cochranesque bent of Cruz’s campaign. It’s going to make a lot of folks decide against Cruz.
Tell the media the REAL fraud occurred over on the Dem side with Hillary pulling her usual hocus-pocus tricks. I’m not happy about the ‘voter error’ flyer Team Cruz mailed out, but.. Pales in comparison to what Hillary did to Bernie in Iowa.
Trump changed his mind?
I’m certain the fact any lawsuit would’ve run into a brick wall had nothing to do with it..
I’m not sure if Trump doesn’t believe he’s in some reality-show setting. He has quite the penchant for cheap drama.
So, now it's OK to spread BS about your opponents as long as you "achieve[] a very good result"? But.....isn't that precisely what Trump has accused Cruz of doing in Iowa?

Another example of why we can’t trust Trump to take a consistent position on anything.
It’s a game (show) to him. He keeps moving the pieces.
Wasn’t he just talking about overturning gay marriage a week ago?
Bah taht’s what I get for having two threads open at once. Ignore this
That's more than a decade in Trump years.
He may not care but Mark Steyn does with his blistering new essay.
