"Trump also attacked Cruz for not supporting government subsidies of ethanol."

How big are the subsidies for ethanol? TIA

[Jane Long]

It is quite strange who’ve they aligned themselves with, isn’t it?

[Elpasser]

This article is surely satire.

And Trump’s numbers will go up after a brief flat period as Cruzers sober up and realize they are being fed a line by people would promote anybody but Trump. Cruz has no chance of beating Granny and that’s why they are promoting him.

[Duchess47]

Yes, it is. Non stop.

[jpsb]

"I have learned truth doesn’t matter, either to the MSM or to many Cruz supporters."

Most of the Cruz supporter here are OK folk, but the Trump hating Cruz supporters are blankety blank blank blanks.

[woofie]

Trump is totally without class

[MarMema]

Thanks for the beautiful post.

[Sacajaweau]

IIRC, Trump's Christianity was questioned...way back when.

By the way, I've got a pyramid I'd like to sell you.

[Genoa]

I do like Ted Cruz, but not a lot of evangelicals come out of Cuba, in all fairness

If Trump said this he's a jackass.

[Amntn]

Yes. Very telling.

[Jane Long]

BTTT!

[Pravious]

““And by the way, and again, I do like Ted Cruz, but not a lot of evangelicals come out of Cuba, in all fairness. It’s true. Not a lot come out. But I like him nevertheless”

Whew. With a heavy hitting, personal attack like that, it’s surprising Cruz will even talk to him again.

/s

[LMAO]

You said...
“Trump’s no conservative”

Although that’s true it wasn’t as bad as the headline claims

[AuntB]

” I do like Ted Cruz, but not a lot of evangelicals come out of Cuba, in all fairness. “

THAT is what they call ‘disparaging’? What a bunch of crybaby bullies the press is. They are searching for anything to hang Trump with. It’s disgusting.

Cruz is very shrewd. He will not reply in kind, but take the high road. It will pay off in the long run.

If Cruz is going to take the high road, he'll first have to get off the low road. All his drivel about how "gravity" will eventually pull Trump down and then Trump's supporters will just flock to him is stupid and insulting to Trump supporters. Cruz showed poor judgment and to the extent that any mini-war of words exists between he and Trump, he started it.

[entropy12]

Cruz started it by disparaging Trump & Carson in private meeting with his sugar daddy rich donors. But it was recorded by someone surreptitiously and it got out.

[SteveSCH]

First off I like Ted Cruz, and I like Donald Trump.

They’re both running for POTUS and it’s becoming more and more obvious that the race is between these two men, so of course the knives will come out... That’s politics.

[Still Thinking]

In cash? I have no idea. But, requiring 10-15% or whatever portion of our gas by federal regulation certainly amounts to a de facto subsidy.

[Psalm 144]

Cruz deserves much better than to be Santorum the Second, but it may shape up that way.
