Donald Trump’s streak of graciousness following the close battle in Iowa has come to a screeching halt this week, but for once his anger has company in an unlikely group of individuals.
He, Iowa Governor Terry Branstad, and even the ever docile Ben Carson are all coming together to criticize the tactics Ted Cruz used to secure his surprisingly big win in Iowa this week. All three have released statements calling out “unethical and unfair” coercion techniques, and Trump — of course — is threatening to sue.
That very threat from Trump had many dismissing the accusations as typical Trump bombast, but the inclusion of less hyperbolic personalities now has many paying attention. Cruz, it seems, could be in a bit of trouble.
While it’s unlikely that Cruz broke any election laws — the primary is technically run by a private organization, the Republican Party, and is therefore not necessarily beholden to government oversight — the bad press could definitely hurt the Senator’s already less-than-sterling reputation among many in the GOP.

I hope so, lying, cheating bastard
There’s something about him ya know? I feel like I’ve seen him on a used car add somewhere. : )
Give Trump enough time, vote for him and he will expose all the corrupt$#%&!@*in our government. It’s about time. Like him or not he’s on our side. Remember he’s just like one of us.
?
Who boos Cruz?
No, Trump
The whole thing started by Carson himself who didn’t even care enough to stick around for the vote, and desided his clothes were more important than the voters. Now he is trying to ruin Cruz with his own mistake. I’n not buying it, and I think he did it on purpose, the info did come from his own camp right befor the voting started, calculated timing to take others down, Rubios camp also tweeted out that Carson quit, to vote for Rubio, there is a screenshot of it, but Fox doesn’t show that or talk about it, oh no, not for their pretty bou Rubio. Carsons ploy stole all the thunder of Cruz’s win, Fox news stole all the thunder of cruz win by saying the big winner was Rubio, they all but swooned over Rubio pathetic, they are all attacking Cruz. because he is the threat.
Rove & O’Reilly are sleaze who cares what they say .
Mr. Haas, if you took the time to read the Twitter time stamps and voice recordings, “the bottom line” is; You would clearly see that the Assistant Campaign Manager of the Cruz team started the ignorant and blatant lie about Carson leaving the campaign… Carson was very explicit about his intentions in his Twitter posts! The major pisser is that Cruz did not admit the mistake until the following day! …Please do your studies before opening thine mouth!
Enough said.
