The advertisement opens with Mr. Trump giving a thumbs-up, "approving this message," but becomes very critical very fast. A raspy voice alleges Mr. Cruz "talks from both sides of his mouth on amnesty" for undocumented immigrants, as a photograph of Mr. Cruz zooms to the foreground and an interview with Fox News plays in the background. "Cruz Challenged on Immigration Flip-Flop," the ad proclaims in white text, citing Fox News.
The ad cuts to a photograph of Mr. Cruz, glistening and smirking, his gaze cast longingly on an image of the Wall Street sign, as the narrator accuses him of taking "more than $1 million in sweetheart loans from Wall Street banks" and not disclosing them.
The ad speaks of "dirty tricks" and an effort to "sabotage Ben Carson with false rumors," as a flat-faced Mr. Carson appears on the right of the screen.
It closes by stating that Mr. Cruz cannot be trusted, a play on his "TrusTed" campaign logo, as the narrator passes judgment on Mr. Cruz as "the worst kind of Washington insider."

“But in the fall I realized that Trump was the one who will do what he says . . .â€
That is an interesting comment. Can you provide some examples
I listened to him speak and I remembered his Art of the deal book I read in high school. I have always had respect for him and watched him over the years. I found out about some of the projects he saved and fixed..like the NYC Vietnam vet memorial in 1982...and the skating rink where he fixed it under budget and ahead of time. He does what he says he will do. He went to the New York Military Academy and has always been a patriot. He has supported the military and the vets for decades, this has been an unwavering position that is incompatible with being a democrat!
“You always forget that 70-75% of republicans do not support Trump”

The man will say absolutely anything that seems to fit his current moment.
Actually, I think the butt hurt from 8 years of declinocrat and rino screwing has driven trumpsters into the safe arms of a pimp. You know the screwing aint gonna stop, but you hope to get a cut of the $$.
It is simple arithmatic. Nationwide Trump has about 30% support. That means about 70% do not support him.
100% - 30% = 70%
I honestly don’t know whether Trump will do what he says or not. The truth is, he can’t do it alone and I’m not looking for someone willing to “deal” or negotiate with the progressives of both parties. When we (Americans) negotiate/compromise, we lose.
I’ve read a lot of books, some are true, some are not, some are self serving and some just pure entertainment with no redeeming value.
His record of supporting veterans isn’t all that pristine. I’m a retired Army officer and I wouldn’t be a prop for any candidate. However, Trump hasn’t always been so concerned about veterans:

And there are many, many more such citations.
The New York Military Academy is a junior/senior high school. It ain’t West Point and it doesn’t make him a Ranger or an expert on defense matters; please don’t pretend that it does.
Haha... that’s pretty funny!
I got $20 says he gets elected.
Put up or shut up. :)
Name calling = zero credibility
Have a nice day :)
Go Trump
Ok. Thanks for playing “non-sequitur” this morning. Have a very nice day!
Go Trump!
By the way, if you want to read another Trump book, try “The America We Deserve”, which was written in 2000 - 13 years after “The Art of the Deal”. Here’s what Trump said about gun control in “The America We Deserve”:
It’s often argued that the American murder rate is high because guns are more available here than in other countries. After a tragedy like the massacre at Columbine High School, anyone could feel that it is too easy for Americans to get their hands on weapons. But nobody has a good solution. This is another issue where you see the extremes of the two existing major parties. Democrats want to confiscate all guns, which is a dumb idea because only the law-abiding citizens would turn in their guns and the bad guys would be the only ones left armed. The Republicans walk the NRA line and refuse even limited restrictions. I generally oppose gun control, but I support the ban on assault weapons and I also support a slightly longer waiting period to purchase a gun. With today’s Internet technology we should be able to tell within seventy-two hours if a potential gun owner has a record.
Sounds like a dyed-in-the-wool supporter of the Second Amendment to me...
Yeah, I know, “It doesn’t matter; he’s gonna build a wall!”
Great Ad! Go Trump!
Ted’s ad really makes you wonder about ol’ Ted.
The preacher’s son..creepy Ted with the kids...always the kids.
Such a Creepy Alinsky post G-R.
I don’t want nutty Cruz anywhere near the nuclear button.
Actually I was thinking about sending Cruz another $50, but now I think I will make it $70, that’s my $20 put to better use. Thanks for the motivational boost.
Here’s a fact for you to chew on: Cruz is owned by big donors. You Cruzbots think that when push comes to shove he will side with the people on issues when Wall Street wants favors from him? Not on your life. Someone will be betrayed, and I promise you - it won’t be Wall Street.
If you believe Trump is projecting, then that criteria also goes for Ted’s negative ads on Cruz. You people are really something, you know that? So naive and deceived.
Your ignorance is on display. Trump is saying much the same things he has said for over 30 years. He took out a full-page ad in the NYT about trade. Look up his past videos on Oprah, etc, then stop your lying.
