The fight is on between front-runner Donald Trump and fellow Republican presidential nomination contender Sen. Ted Cruz.
The New York Times on Friday uncovered an audio recording of a donor event Cruz held on Wednesday where Cruz said he believed Trump and Dr. Ben Carson’s campaigns would fold eventually to the senator’s benefit.
(Trump takes offense at anyone who is willing to play politics):
“My approach, much to the frustration of media, is to bear
hug both of them and smother them with love,” Cruz told donors at the
event. “I believe that gravity will bring both of those candidates down.
I think the lion share of their supporters will come to us.”
Cruz said he respects and likes both men but he said with fears of
terrorism on the rise voters are looking for a serious choice.
“You look at Paris, you look at San Bernardino, it’s given a
seriousness to this race,” the senator said. “People are looking for who
is prepared to be a commander in chief. Who understands the threats we
face. ‘Who am I comfortable having their finger on the button?’ Now
that’s a question of strength, but it’s also a question of judgment. And
I think that is a question that is a challenging question for both of
them.” (the above text is verbatim from BPA).
