Ted Cruz And Donald Trump: Now It’s War

So much for the alliance. The GOP’s leading candidates exploded at each other during Thursday’s debate.
America’s Sweethearts have broken up. And like most celebrity splits, it was messy.

“I guess the bromance is over,” Donald Trump concluded in an interview on CNN after the Republican debate, reflecting on a relationship that might never be the same again.

Before things fell apart for the star-crossed candidates, Ted Cruz and Trump long had a non-aggression pact. It was sweet; Cruz defended Trump’s outlandish statements when no other Republican would, and Trump staunchly refused to target Cruz because of that goodwill. Trump has started to question whether the Canadian-born Cruz is constitutionally eligible for the presidency, but even that attack was delivered much more politely than anything he’s said to someone like Jeb Bush.

But now whatever alliance Cruz and Trump had has been replaced by all-out war.

In fact, the exchanges between the two rivals did what many thought to be impossible: Cruz made Trump look reasonable and Trump made Cruz look likeable.
