Birther-ism, Part II?

Donald Trump, who famously questioned whether President Obama was really born in Hawaii, is now raising questions about the Canadian birth of Republican presidential campaign rival Ted Cruz.

“Republicans are going to have to ask themselves the question: ‘Do we want a candidate who could be tied up in court for two years?’" Trump told The Washington Post in reference to the Texas senator. "That’d be a big problem ... It’d be a very precarious one for Republicans because he’d be running and the courts may take a long time to make a decision. You don’t want to be running and have that kind of thing over your head.”

While born in Canada, Cruz and allies have said he is eligible for the presidency because his mother's status as an American citizen made him a citizen upon his birth. His father was born in Cuba. Since his election to the U.S. Senate from Texas in 2012, Cruz has released his birth certificate and renounced his Canadian citizenship.

Still, some critics of Cruz have suggested taking the issue to court.

“I’d hate to see something like that get in his way," Trump told the Post. "But a lot of people are talking about it and I know that even some states are looking at it very strongly, the fact that he was born in Canada and he has had a double passport.”

Trump made the comments as Cruz has passed him in polls in Iowa, which opens the GOP nomination process with caucuses on Feb. 1.

Cruz responded to Trump's jibe with a tweet showing a famous scene from the 1970s sitcom Happy Days, one in which the character Fonzie jumps over a school of sharks on water skis — inspiring the term "jump the shark," used to describe the moment at which a television show begins to lose its quality.

Trump is turning the entire race into a joke.

We may as well get used to having the Xlintons back in the White House until they're ninety.

Or Trump will destroy the GOP entirely.

And Hitlery will pack the Court with her puppets.

Then we won't have to discuss anything because that will be illegal too.

Trump seems to be poisoning the well, trying to make all other candidates unable to be the nominee.

Not beat them but make it impossible for any other candidate to be nominated at all.

You have to wonder who will be his VP pick, who would serve in his cabinet or the thousands of appointed jobs.

Control your hype.. The gop can't be destroyed, -- Hopefully, it will be changed.

More hype. Barring total economic collapse, the republic will muddle on.

Trump seems to be poisoning the well, trying to make all other candidates unable to be the nominee.

What else is new? That's how the game is played..

I'd bet Cruz will jump at being VP ,and there will be no shortage of eager patriots willing to work for Trump, -- and to hold his feet to the conservative line.

Trump plays to win.

Are you going to vote for Trump or Hillary?

It's already destroyed. There is no quality control or minimum requirements to be met to become a Republican.
