Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 1h1 hour ago

Greatly dishonest of @TedCruz to file a financial disclosure form & not list his lending banks- then pretend he is going to clean up Wall St

When will @TedCruz give all the New York based campaign contributions back to the special interests that control him.

Everybody that loves the people of New York, and all they have been thru, should get hypocrites like Ted Cruz out of politics!

If Ted Cruz is so opposed to gay marriage, why did he accept money from people who espouse gay marriage?

Ted is the ultimate hypocrite. Says one thing for money, does another for votes. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/04/24/us/politics/at-new-york-reception-ted-cruz-is-said-to-strike-different-tone-toward-gays.html?referer=

Ted Cruz purposely, and illegally, did not list on his personal disclosure form personally guaranteed loans from banks. They own him!

Based on the fact that Ted Cruz was born in Canada and is therefore a "natural born Canadian," did he borrow unreported loans from C banks?

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 7h7 hours ago

Oh no, just reported that Ted Cruz didn't report another loan, this one from Citi. Wow, no wonder banks do so well in the U.S. Senate.

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 7h7 hours ago

The Ted Cruz wiseguy apology to the people of New York is a disgrace. Remember, his wife's employer, and his lender, is located there!

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 8h8 hours ago

Was there another loan that Ted Cruz FORGOT to file. Goldman Sachs owns him, he will do anything they demand. Not much of a reformer!

Ted Cruz said he "didn't know" that he was a Canadian Citizen. He also FORGOT to file his Goldman Sachs Million $ loan papers.Not believable

Ted Cruz was born in Canada and was a Canadian citizen until 15 months ago. Lawsuits have just been filed with more to follow. I told you so

Indeed.  He's worried.

No matter what he does it will be better than HRC hitting the hay to sleep off the night's booze, or Feel the Bern blaming both US capitalism and global warming as he acquiesces to whatever threat challenges him.
Trump has created a cult and looks more and more like Hitler every day.

A frightening thought.

He'd probably react similarly to Obama, but we'll all know about it because he'll do it much louder.....   **nononono*

I see this as childish behavior by "The Donald"; similar to a child throwing a tantrum because things aren't going his way.  This is exactly what I have questioned several times; how is he going to react and what is he going to do if he loses the primary?  In that event I honestly see him running 3rd party and we all know what that will mean.  I have very little doubt now that he is the one that started the Goldman Sachs focus along with the birther issue.  Problem is; there isn't a whole lot of dirt to dig up on Cruz.  Like Rubio, Trump will have to create rumors and lies. Cruz's problem is though, he doesn't have Trumps money nor his connections.   The whole thing is, in a nutshell, Cruz didn't fire back until Trump pulled the trigger.

Trump made a bad mistake: Ted Cruz is NOT Jeb Bush.  :whistle:

On a more personal level - this is what the guy does when he feels slighted and commands a twitter account. I dread to think what he'll do when he is inevitably slighted on the world stage and has a whole army to play with.

Yes it is certainly a concern; what is he going to do if Putin, Xi Jinping or Kim Jong-un don't play nicely in the sandbox or kick sand in his face?  He has spoken several times regarding the disparity in trade with China; what if Xi Jinping refuses to play ball or simply isn't open to negotiation?

Here's what worries Mr. Cruz:

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/trump-supporters-trek-through-whiteout-conditions-for-rally/article/2580706

Is TRUMP the only one that works at campaigning ? Never hear or see anything about any of the candidates holding rallies or campaigning. We know RUBIO has a work ethic problem but the rest I thought would at least work. BUT at least they show up at the debates to get TRUMPED. :patriot:

He'll tweet up a storm and expect the world to do what he tells them to do.

Cause he's TRUMP!

Sorta like Obama's fans did back in 2008, right??

If anything shows the qualification of a man running for President, it certainly must be the crowds he draws............   **nononono*

Yeah, Obama had those crowds too -

Indeed he did.  But the proof of the quality of the candidate has nothing to do with the size crowds he draws.

And using big crowds as proof of the seriousness of said candidate, is no more valid now than it was in 2008.

The difference, of course, is that Ron Paul could never crack double-digits in polls, while Trump is the faraway front-runner right now.  Paul appealed to a very narrow type of voter.  His support was always an inch wide and a mile deep and was never going to translate to votes.

I was modifying that while you were typing this. He was actually leading several polls by large margins.
