He also said Cruz had changed his position on trade promotion authority – a measure that gives President Barack Obama the power to negotiate trade deals and send them to Congress for votes without amendments – and on the Patriot Act.
Blue-collar voters don’t feel embarrassed about supporting Trump, who is very popular in their communities. Even Jeb Bush eagerly exchanged a low-five with the mogul during one of the early debates. They continued taking shots throughout the week, with Trump calling Bush “dumb as a rock” on Twitter Friday.

Trump interrupts and makes more faces. Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, who was once favoured to get the party’s nomination held fifth position with 7%. But the party wants a leader.
Not coming as a surprise to many Bible-believing Christians watching the polling and presidential debates, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is not generating the votes of evangelicals as easily as he is with other conservatives out there.

Rubio’s campaign appears willing to let immigration be the topic of conversation in pursuit of a broader narrative that undercuts Cruz’s claim to being the only “consistent conservative” in the GOP field. Trump questioned Cruz’s religion and his judgment, and Cruz brushed it off as a trifling misunderstanding between stalwart foes of the establishment. Another voter asked Bush how he’d go about defeating Trump.
With many variables in play, do you think that Donald Trump polling data overestimates or underestimates how much support he actually enjoys among the electorate both in the upcoming primaries and potentially for the November general election?
Republican insiders find the Cruz maneuver galling.
