“Cruz is smarter than Rubio”. “And he is going to bring this race to Hillary Clinton”. On Saturday in Georgia, Cruz suggested Trump may be committing tax fraud.

“I see him starting to sweat, like I have never seen anything like it. Thank God he has really large ears, the biggest ears I’ve ever seen, because they were protecting him”, Trump said.
“And you look at all these issues, this is one more project that Donald Trump is doing”.
Trump’s insurgent campaign has riven the Republican Party, with party leaders openly discussing how to thwart the will of the tens of thousands of members who have voted for Trump so far, helping him comfortably win in three of the four states that have so far held nominating contests.
Mr Christie and Mr Trump dominated the headlines on Friday when the governor announced he was endorsing the real estate mogul. “He should sue whoever did that to his face”.
The quip drew laughs. “That’s what makes this country great, is that people can have differences of political opinion”. “I will campaign as long as it takes”.
“You get up, you go to the polls, and you vote!” he said. As a candidate, Christie ridiculed the Republican frontrunner for having a “make-believe” campaign that amounted to little more than reality TV and sought to remind voters that they aren’t electing an “entertainer-in-chief”.
Donald Trump is leading in the Super Tuesday states of Georgia and Tennessee, while Ted Cruz is ahead in his home state of Texas, according to a trio of new NBC News/Wall Street Journal polls.
Democrats will award delegates in the same states as Republicans, apart from Alaska, and they are also competing in Colorado and in American Samoa. Ohio Gov.

The New Jersey Governor is said to have been offended when Rubio left him a voicemail after he dropped out and told him he had a “bright future in public service”. The two senators took turns ripping Trump at last week’s debate. “We’re going to win Florida”, Rubio said. Trump shot back with a torrent of insults. Cruz slammed Trump’s past support for the Brady Bill, gun control legislation that President Bill Clinton signed into law in 1993.

He also has seen, over time, a kind of quiet establishment comfort with Trump — in New Jersey and among other friends, including big-money people in the party and also regular people he interacts with. “He’s just this cult of personality”.
