Ted Cruz vows to mock Trump at AIPAC for skipping Fox News debate
CNN ^ | March 16, 2016

Posted on 03/16/2016 6:18:08 PM PDT by VitacoreVision

Ted Cruz on Wednesday mocked Donald Trump for bowing out of a debate next week in Salt Lake City, and the Texas senator vowed to call out the GOP front-runner at a gathering of a major pro-Israel lobby group next week.

Trump said earlier in the day that he would not participate in the Fox News debate in Utah on Monday, and John Kasich quickly said that he wouldn't attend if Trump didn't. Later on Wednesday, Fox News formally canceled the event.

Trump said he would use his time instead on Monday to address a conference hosted by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the prominent pro-Israel group. Cruz's campaign said in a statement Wednesday that Cruz would use his time at the same conference to "highlight Trump's positions -- or lack thereof -- in front of the thousands of AIPAC members in attendance."

"Let's be intellectually honest about what's going on here -- Donald Trump is scared to debate Ted Cruz next week,"

It doesn’t matter what Trump says or does not say he is going to be attacked.

With the GOPe Its like he is trapped in the Nike Store during a flash mob.

Cruz can go and debate himself. Krauthammer can analyze that.

Santorum is not high-octane enough, and not able to bring much to the ticket. He’s like another Quayle.

LOL!

Ah I better double up on my Lisinopril tonight.

The 30-45 seconds of Ted Cruz I was able to endure tonight just about made me jump head first through the ceiling.

That guy...

Cruz people need new material. Your losing because you are fighting things from three weeks ago when everyone has moved on.

Trump may be trying to get past saying he would be neutral between Israel and Palestine.

Sorry, baby, it’s on tape.

I think this was a lot opportunity for Ted

I'm not convinced Cruz and Kasich wouldn't tag team Trump, who'd be standing in the middle of them. Otherwise, why would Cruz want Kasich to get more exposure?

“Cruz is a prick. Use a Israel conference to bash a fellow attendee/guest speaker.”

That has not happened. We just have a CNN interpretation of what they say will happen.

No need to vilify Ted Cruz over something that CNN *wants to happen* but has not happened yet.

CNN loves to “lets you and him fight” to Republicans.

Gotta tell you, my hens are the smartest things going - and industrious! Man, do they ever tear up the weeds, till out the soil, eat the bugs. They work work work until sundown. Chickens are nothing to make lite of.

What a stupid thing to say. Cruz is far more articulate; more intelligent and more principled than Trump.

Trump was squealing like a pig at the debate when Rubio attacked him. He couldn’t shut up but he couldn’t say anything either.

Someone needs to transcribe the words Trump spoke during that verbal flailing he did. Pitiful

“Neutral between Israel and the Palestinians”, puts Trump to the left of the Democratic Party.

But what to expect from a supporter of affirmative action and Planned Parenthood who criticized Romney for being too harsh on illegal aliens?
