WASHINGTON (AP) — Two super PACs supporting Sen. Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign are offering to donate $1.5 million to charities that help veterans if Donald Trump will debate Cruz head-to-head before the Iowa caucuses.
The political action committees, Keep the Promise I and II, are proposing a one-hour debate to be held in Iowa on or before Jan. 31, the day before the caucuses, with a moderator chosen by the candidates.
Cruz himself sent a letter to Trump Wednesday inviting him to debate in Sioux City, Iowa, on Saturday night. TheCruz campaign suggested conservative radio hosts Mark Levin, Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh as possible moderators.
Trump dismissed Cruz’s proposal earlier Wednesday. He is skipping Thursday’s night’s GOP debate amid a feud with debate host Fox News Channel.
Of course he is. It lets him pretend that he’s actually a viable second.
(Note I didn’t say “number two”, which he totally is)
Crooooze is so desperate and he knows it. Darn Old Trump has no need to engage with Teddy. DT is the front runner and seems to be fooling enough people enough of the time, so why would he take the Croooooze bait? The GOP is in total chaos and it couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of wackos.
Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America told Cruz and Trump to go fuck themselves and refused to be part of any “political stunts.”
Fiorina apparently offered $1.5M too if she could join the Trump/Cruz showdown.
I wonder how many times during a response to one of his “clever attacks” Raphael will end up clapping for Trump.
@Sniffit - That’s, like, what, 25 HP employees? A bargain!
Ted Cruz is a NATURAL BORN CANADIAN!
It would set a very dangerous precedent for our national security if we let Ted Cruz run for President.
Do we want the next Ted Cruz from Iran or Russia or China to eligible to run for President? I don’t think so…while I love Canada, we can’t give an exception for Canada. The founding fathers had no intention of allowing foreign born citizens to meet their definition of natural born.
Heck, Cruz shouldn’t be allowed in the US Senate - let alone in the White House. Cruz only recently claims to have rescinded his Canadian Citizenship. Senators should be 100% American - not 50%. Cruz also has NOT proven that he has legally rescinded his Canadian citizenship. Do you really believe what Ted Cruz (a pathological liar) says? Prove it Ted.
Cruz isn’t just ineligible to run for the White House, he mentally unfit to serve at the head of our government.
