“You know, I have to say to Mr. Trump, you have been threatening frivolous lawsuits for your entire adult life”, Cruz told reporters in Seneca, S.C., ahead of Saturday’s South Carolina GOP primary.

The CBS News poll, published Thursday morning, showed Trump polling at 35 percent, with Cruz at 18 percent, Florida Sen.
Current polls show that Trump is substantially ahead in that state.
The poll released Wednesday by NBC and the Wall Street Journal had Cruz in the lead at 28 percent and Trump at 26.
Also conducted after the New Hampshire primary, but with a larger sample than the NBC poll, it gave Trump 41 percent of supporters among Republicans nation-wide, and Ted Cruz far behind at 12 percent.
“Rubio’s campaign has been reduced to spreading false Internet rumors”, said Cruz spokesman Brian Phillips. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, speaks at the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) Legislative Conference and Presidential Forum in Washington.Cruz plans to announce Monday, March 23, 2015, that he is running for president.
A new Morning Consult poll found that 57 percent of registered Republicans believe former President George W. Bush kept the country safe. McInterff remarked, “When you see a number this different, it means you might be right on top of a shift in the campaign”.
But Cruz, who said he would like to take Trump’s deposition himself, said a lawsuit against the ad has no chance.
The candidates have been attacking each other all week as a way of campaigning for the SC primary on Saturday. Additionally, he was forced to apologize to Dr. Ben Carson for fraudulently stealing his votes in Iowa, and was embarrassed by his phony voter violation form. Trump has taken issue with Cruz’s statements about Trump’s supposed support for Obamacare and taxpayer funding for Planned Parenthood.
An ad aired in which Trump said, “I think Bush is probably the worst President in the history of the United States”.
But Donald Trump doesn’t seem to need Haley’s support.

But Cruz’s 2-point edge is within the poll’s margin of error, and it’s not clear if the survey captures real movement in the race or is simply an outlier.
