Trump handles the media better.
He blamed his staff. No way around it, I’m sorry.
Throwing his staff under the bus. That does not show good leadership.
He needs to fire that staff of his, it gets him in a lot of trouble
Cruz never does any wrong.
Cruz can’t be TrusTED. He is sneaky because he has an ambition overload. He hides what he does that does not fit his narrative.
When he gets caught. He looks guilty and starts the “dog ate my homework routine”.
It is starting to be kind of funny.
I wonder what Ted Cruz’s staff said about the Corker Bill.
From the article: Look, it was a mistake on our part, we misunderstood the order of the votes.
He is including himself in the blame.
Wallace's agenda was apparent in this lousy interview.

Either Cruz or Roberts is a liar.There’s no getting around that.
he was asked a question. Maybe he is just telling the truth about what happened. No possibility?
I’m not saying it’s not true that his staff messed up. But a true leader accepts responsibility for his people and deals with them in private.
Yes, I’ve learned that.
I both sides as compatible.
Smartest lawyer harvard princeton debate chamption was tricked by who? Pat Roberts??
Trump does it without effort.
Until Trump we all thought it was the unfairness of the interviewer.
Now it's become evident that it's the interviewee who is clueless.
Yes and no. He never relents or shows weakness, which I like. What he says doesn’t always make sense, but he stays on the offense.
The one criticism of Cruz that has surprised me is that he hasn’t handled a series of attacks well at all. It started with the Rubio onslaught in December at the debate. While in the big picture he didn’t take on any damage (his #s moved up and Rubio moved down), he did not have a confident response to an expected accusation. Same in the past couple weeks, he’s so skilled with message, but some things seem to get in his head. Every candidate has pros and cons, and Cruz has a lot of pros and some cons, but when he’s hit on a weakness, he does not manage it well. Like I said, I think it’s the one instance where he gets in his own head. Cruz manages a lot of things with the media well, and breaks their premise in many cases, but this is not one of those.
Trump just ignores and moves on to something else in many cases. It’s a tactic that works well in politics as the majority of viewers never see him squirm or take a hit. The casual viewer doesn’t see any damage. Most voters are casual viewers.
That would be Democrap Establishment..
