Now that Trump v Cruz is in full swing and we’re into the music war phase (Trump playing “Born in the USA” and Cruz threatening to play “New York, New York” – two nasty bullies at war) I am reminded of this …
That is one of the many things that makes the current Trump-Cruz phony war so compelling. Trump is baiting Cruz into the same smackdown he’s used to eat up Bush, Walker, Fiorina and others. But Cruz won’t take the bait. Like two zen masters facing off in a martial arts classic or perhaps two wizards do battle in The Lord of the Rings, we have an epic confrontation between two master who have trained for decades in the arts of assholery and bullying. But their powers equally matched, it is a stand off.
