Cruz Says Trump ‘Dismayed’ by His Rise in Polls
On the other hand, the Texas senator also spoke up against Donald Trump during a campaign in SC on Saturday, as well as an interview with Fox News on Sunday.
Cruz’s hard-hitting jab was in response to an attack from Trump during an appearance on ABC’s “This Week” when the real estate tycoon called Cruz a “very nasty guy”. “Nobody likes him. Nobody in Congress likes him”. You know why they don’t like him?
“He’s got an edge that’s not good”.
“Ronald Reagan did not spend the first 60 years of his life supporting Democratic politicians, advocating for big government politics, supporting things like the TARP big bank bailouts, supporting things like expanding Obamacare to turn it into socialized medicine”, Cruz said.
Ted Cruz and his presidential candidate opponent Donald Trump have been exchanging remarks back and forth over the past weeks. Helpfully, the new Bloomberg Politics/Des Moines Register Iowa Poll can illuminate exactly what Cruz is up to – and why he keeps on mocking “New York values” even after absorbing so much criticism. “In South Carolina, when I was there, the people there certainly understand it”.
“If when the battle is being fought and you don’t stand up and show up to fight, then your credibility when you’re a presidential candidate when you say, ‘Gosh, I really care about amnesty, ‘ becomes a little suspect”, Cruz said.
The war of words between Cruz and Trump has intensified in recent days, with Trump going on the offensive over Cruz’s eligibility to be on the ballot given his Canadian birth and for Cruz’s failure to disclose loans received from Citibank and Goldman Sachs for his 2012 Senate race. While Trump makes Cruz the constant target on campaign rallies and on Twitter, Cruz is trying to convince voters that Trump is liberal and not the conservative he is claiming.
The heated tension between the two escalated after Trump slammed Cruz by stating that Cruz isn’t qualified to run for president because of his nationality as he was born in Canada. He went on to tell the crowd that Trump is beginning to be “rattled” by his upwelling of grassroots support. Wallace broached the subject by bringing in copies of NY tabloids, with their front pages screaming at Cruz for knocking NY. “I’m campaigning on behalf of American values and I don’t seek to divide people against each other”.
The video then ends with a coin flipping in the air and the caption “Which Cruz will you choose?”
‘Who could have done – very few people could have done what New Yorkers did under that unbelievable circumstance, ‘ Trump said.
“I think it’s very exciting, I think people in New Hampshire have a great role in this”, said Goffstown resident Steve Brzozowski.
