But, but Lord Trump of the House of Lords, that great legal authority, says Ted Cruz was born in Canada so cannot run for president. If Lord Trump says so, it must be do.
1) Trump didn’t say “he†doesn’t think Cruz is ineligible. He said he has heard that said by others and it could be a problem for the party. He was responding to a question by a reporter.
2) Trump did not say Cruz was eligible previously. He said various people have said that and be understand is has been checked out and therefore Cruz should be fine.
Both are different than what’s being reported. Imagine that.
Is it tactical of fair game to say “others are mentioning it� Absolutely. Is it fair game for Cruz to respond to it by saying other candidates are panicking or Trump “jumped the shark� Absolutely. Does it mean there’s a “rift†between the two? No. They’re both running for President and are 1 or 2 in most polls. They know they would make a good team but they also both want to be top dog. its the nature of the business.
I’m overruling Lord Trump, because unlike Lord Trump both of my parents were natural born US citizens.
BS! Trump didn’t say Cruz couldn’t run. He said it should be settled before the election or it could cause problems. When will the outright lies stop?
