GOP presidential candidates Donald Trump and Ted Cruz have announced they will headline a Capitol Hill rally against President Obama’s proposed nuclear weapons deal with Iran. We’ll be right back in a moment.
With the deal so indefensible, he said, “They don’t want to debate the substance….” Trump undaunted as well as stimulated by the response, told the New York Times that Bush was a “low-vitality individual” – an expression he’s rehashed a few times, realizing that it changes the more youthful Bush sibling – and took to Twitter to deride him for once in a while utilizing his last name. But do you have the record? What is even more disturbing to me is the question of whether he is really a Republican, even though he claims most issues that are dear to the Republican faithful.

The Texas US Senator is on the second day of his latest visit to the state. Bob Smith, state Rep. and former New Hampshire House speaker Bill O’Brien and Executive Councilor David Wheeler.

One or more Cruz donors came from 55 percent of the ZIP codes across the country, he said.
