Cruz: Rubio would be better president than Trump
The Hill ^ | February 25, 2016 | Jesse Byrnes

Posted on 02/26/2016 2:09:51 AM PST by ObamahatesPACoal

Ted Cruz said late Thursday that rival Marco Rubio would make a better president than Republican front-runner Donald Trump.

"Marco is not my enemy, Marco and I are friends. Marco and I would both make a much better candidate and a much better president than would Donald," Cruz told CNN's Jake Tapper after Thursday's Republican debate.

"I like Donald personally. He's a charming guy, although he can turn on you in an instant," Cruz continued.

I think it is a toss-up. They are both bad in different ways.

After Super Tuesday Trump will have more delegates than Cruz and Rubio put together.

Which thing have I got to be kidding about? Oh, is it the “they are both bad in different ways”?

I agree with your statement about Rubio. Trump is just as bad differently. He is a flip-flopper, an emotional roller coaster, still admitting to a liberal position on many things, and a hothead.

Anyone have a link to a video of Cruz saying this? Might as well use the ammo.

CRUZ = SELL OUT!!!!!

"GANG of 8 AMNESTY GUY" would be "better President than TRUMP"

CRUZ makes case for Cruz supporters to go to TRUMP!

Jake Tapper apparently.

CNN has a full video & Cruz has a Cruz highlights video. I wonder if it is edited to leave out the Rubio part.

I haven’t got a link at the moment, but I thought of something more interesting.

Why is Cruz talking to Jake Tapper who trash talked some of the veterans Perry wants to send to Cruz.

It looks desperate.

Trump just cuts off media people who cheated him.
