Former President Jimmy Carter said Wednesday that he’d prefer to have Donald Trump in the Oval Office rather than Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).
Speaking at Britain’s House of Lords, the Democrat said he thought Trump was more of a malleable candidate than Cruz, according to Politico.
“I think I would choose Trump, which may surprise some of you,” Carter was quoted as saying. “The reason is, Trump has proven already he’s completely malleable. I don’t think he has any fixed (positions) he’d go the White House and fight for. On the other hand, Ted Cruz is not malleable. He has far-right wing policies he’d pursue if he became president.”
Trump: I guess I am totally ***ed. I bet Cruz paid Carter to say that.
Malleable?
Wonder who’s gonna wield the hammer?
Ooohhhh, kiss of death for Trump with the “base.”
Trump = Egomaniacal Billionaire with no real positions on anything.
Cruz = Theocratic Fascist who has no qualms about killing to get his way.
Actually, just a weird thing for him to be commenting on. A more logical response is “I’ll take the door with the tiger behind it.”
