Trump, Cruz mend fences and try to save each other

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by DonViejo (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: CNN

Washington (CNN)Donald Trump questioned his Christianity, insulted his wife's appearance, suggested his father was involved with President John F. Kennedy's assassination and nicknamed him Lyin' Ted.

Ted Cruz called Trump a "sniveling coward," a "pathological liar" and "utterly amoral."

It's all water under the bridge now, as Cruz fights to hold his Senate seat in deep-red Texas and the President struggles to keep a Republican majority in the Senate.

Trump has volunteered himself, as well as two of his most high-profile surrogates -- his children, Don Jr. and Ivanka -- to appear alongside the Texas senator as his re-election race tightens.

Just more proof that Trump and Cruz have no sense of integrity whatsoever.

It reminds me of that cartoon Pinky and the Brain, whenever the Brain was trying to imitate a human by wearing a mechanical human suit.

Cruz is just another Jim Jones nutter. Without a conscious, integrity is just another word for nothing left to lose.

Now he begs Donald to help him.

Rafael will make sure his wife kisses Donald's ring, especially if the ring is in Donald's back pocket.

And she will do it with a smile and a big 'thank you'.

could any writer put this into a story and expect ANYONE to believe it? REALLY!!!!!!

And yet, here it is - right there in front of us - and these 2 morons expect the public to believe it. And what's worse, we know that there's probably 40% that do!

Good thing that Beto can handle both critters of the swamp at the same time while his hands are tied behind his back and his eyes blindfolded (literally, look at both of them, I can visualize the moss/algae dripping off of both of them)!

The hypocrisy of both of rump and cruz stinks to high hell, and doesn't fool anyone for one minute.
