Once again the question as to whether Ted Cruz has a constitutional right to run for President of the United States is in the news. Donald Trump, who strongly pursued the argument that Obama was not an American citizen and therefore could not be President, is now stating a similar argument about Cruz.
On Twitter yesterday, Trump tweeted, “If Ted Cruz doesn’t clean up his act, stop cheating and doing negative ads, (I’ll) sue him for not being a natural born citizen.” He also tweeted, “Do Americans really want a Canadian born president? First non-native born in history?”, as well as “…natural born means born on American soil.”
Trump may not have to file suit as one has already been filed by five Cullman County, Alabama voters who are seeking a judgement stating that Ted Cruz is not eligible to run for President of the United States. They believe there is enough evidence that Cruz is a Canadian citizen and therefore not an American citizen.
Do they have a valid case? Read more on page two about the lawsuit against Ted Cruz.
Trump replaces conservative ideals with “free-floating populism”
Trump supported Obama’s stimulus and bailouts Over the years, there have been endless fractures in the façade of individual freedom, but three policies provided the fuel that lit the tea-party fire: the stimulus, the auto bailouts, and the bank bailouts. Barack Obama supported all three. So did Donald Trump.
Trump will be an easy takedown for the Dems
Trump was a liberal until very recently, Trump told Sean Hannity in 2011 that “I was [Obama’s] biggest cheerleader,” and that he has supported liberal policies like universal government healthcare.
Trump’s a big-government crony — “Trump has made a living out of preying on and bullying society’s most vulnerable, with the help of government.
He admits that he’s bought off elected officials in order get his way and to openly abuse the system.
Thomas Sowell: Trump’s egomania mirrors Obama’s
William Kristol: Trump prioritizes wealth over freedom — “Hasn’t Donald Trump been a votary merely of wealth rather than of freedom? Hasn’t he been animated by the art of the deal rather than by the art of self-government?”
Dana Loesch: Trump supported government seizure of private property — “As recently as a couple of years ago, Trump favored the liberal use of eminent-domain laws. He said that the ability of the government to wrest private property from citizens served ‘the greater good.’ Is that suddenly a conservative principle?”
Trump is a philosophically unmoored political opportunist who would trash the broad conservative ideological consensus.” They note that Trump has in the past expressed support for “abortion, gun control, single-payer healthcare à la Canada, and punitive taxes on the wealthy.”
The Wounded Warriors Project is the veterans organization that the Republican presidential candidate is raising funds for at an event he’s hosting at same time as the Fox News debate.
The New York Times delved into the group’s financing and spending and uncovered some eye-opening allegations lodged by those who have worked with the group. The report states:
Since its inception in 2003 as a basement operation handing out backpacks to wounded veterans, the charity has evolved into a fund-raising giant, taking in more than $372 million in 2015 — largely through small donations from people over 65.
The story makes the charge:
But in its swift rise, it has also embraced aggressive styles of fund-raising, marketing and personnel management that have many current and former employees questioning whether it has drifted from its mission.
It has spent millions a year on travel, dinners, hotels and conferences that often seemed more lavish than appropriate, more than four dozen current and former employees said in interviews. Former workers recounted buying business-class seats and regularly jetting around the country for minor meetings, or staying in $500-per-night hotel rooms.
The questions have resurfaced in connection to Donald Trump working with the veterans group, even though his Foundation has given only a small fraction to veterans organizations over the last known reported years of 2009-2013.
In contrast, the Trump Foundation has given the same amount of funds to Planned Parenthood sponsor, the Susan G. Komen foundation, and even more funding to the Clinton Foundation.
