Maybe Mr Mercer (Ted’s hedge fund guy) gave the directive for Ted to trash talk Trump...since Trump’s always going after hedge fund guys.
I thought it was odd, the other day, after all of the exposing Trump has done of the extortion group CFG, for Cruz to be the SOLE speaker at their upcoming conference ....

“Oh boy. He may have stepped into it.
Do people know something supporters of Trump don’t?”
Wow and what? Cruz is a 6 and 7% all day long..everyday in most polling. Am I missing something? I love Trump but always admire Cruz,but he’s not winnable in my opinion. He’s too caught up in DC as a senator to get a win in the general population. The movement is against them and wants an outsider with clout,brains and TOUGHNESS!
Don’t forget Corker and TPA!

Oh,no !!!! Not Corker and TPA!
(Tsk!)
I think Trump drops out when Jeb does...Cruz will pick up Trumps votes and he has the infrastructure and grass roots +cash to defeat the establishment. Trump IMO is in this to keep Jeb out...he hates what the Bush did in Iraq...I think this plan was hatched months ago.
“This would be the first election in my life in which I did not vote.”
Well, at least you won’t be able to bitch about the outcome now will you.
After seeing your tag line I wanted to tell you that I stick by my 3 month old prediction that Trump will eventually endorse Cruz.
Not that Cruz would ever be selected as Trump's veep...unfortunately he brings NADA to a ticket, any ticket, as a veep. No charisma, mired in the middle polls from the beginning, weird looks, wooden body language, weird looks, no "it".....
I posted weeks ago on this forum that I have an instinctive feeling that Trump will chose someone conservative we won't expect, but someone that we'll really be wildly enthusiastic about...as will the voting public.
GO TRUMP !
Leni
Don’t forget the $500K donation by his PAC to the Carly campaign, keeping her afloat.
I was for Cruz from the beginning.....from the beginning.
Shortly beforeTrump, Cruz came across my radar with some ...not conservative....positions that I found untenable.
To me, he is no longer the one and only.
Trump has taken that position.
I’ll thank you to vote for whoever or whomever you want, and stop insulting others.
Yes, Corker - signing on with the rest of them to enable Iran.
TPA to allow the current TPP treason that will decimate our sovereignty and border security.
Conservative in speeches, yes. Votes? Not so much.
This would be the first election in my life in which I did not vote.
That’s very sad to hear. Hitlery will be very grateful to you.
Respectfully, what’s your problem with fast track (TPA)?
Agree, completely!!
Ted’s glomming on to the TrumpTrain days are over!
...”EVERYTHING being brought to the forefront, on this election, is due to TRUMP....immigration, the wall, our vets, tax reform, etc.”....
Well actually the media has been who’s put Trump in the front row because all the candidates have spoken about these issues....and Cruz has actually been fighting on these for some time in Washington as we know.
Cruz would not be saying these things now regarding winning over Trump if it was not carefully planned, and be sure that Trump knew this was coming beforehand.
I have a hard time undertaking people that, on one hand, a gaga over Trump, comparing him to Reagan and JFk - and alluding him to the kind of Old Time rough and tough men portrayed by Clint Eastwood - and to his (Trumps) nastiness in referring to others as the kind of bravado we need
- and then make remarks about how we don't want Cruz because he doesn't "get along" with with the other senators????
Here, he makes some simple statements. No name calling. No frothing. No attack. And he may have 'stepped in it" - Is no one to say naught about Trump? (Sounds like the bully on the playground. No one better say anything to make him mad. You think O'bummer is adamant about having his own way. Elect Trump and watch...) )
Fact is that Trump has never had to answer for a vote and has never had to defend the Constitution. Trump has bragged about graft and has held positions all along the political spectrum in recent years. Cruz is not perfect, but to keep bringing up corker and tpp on every Cruz thread when your guy has many times more warts is a little irrational.
Cruz has no chance.
