Donald Trump has finally decided to play dirty politics and go all in on Ted Cruz and the birther argument.
Early on in his campaign, Trump was all about supporting Cruz and even tried to put a stop to the birther claims.
Donald Trump said in an interview that rival Ted Cruz’s Canadian birthplace was a “very precarious” issue that could make the senator from Texas vulnerable if he became the Republican presidential nominee.
“Republicans are going to have to ask themselves the question: ‘Do we want a candidate who could be tied up in court for two years?’ That’d be a big problem,” Trump said when asked about the topic. “It’d be a very precarious one for Republicans because he’d be running and the courts may take a long time to make a decision. You don’t want to be running and have that kind of thing over your head.”
This is exactly how Trump plays his cards. When he feels like he’s losing, he tries to play dirty. There’s only one problem. Cruz has a sense of humor about things, and he responds in that same fashion.
