Time to Quit, Ted! Trump Tells Cruz to Get Ready to ‘Leave the Race’
Donald Trump called on Ted Cruz on Monday to quit the presidential race and go back to the U.S. Senate if Tuesday’s Indiana primary ends with the billlionaire beating the senator.
‘Yes, he should. He should leave the race if I win,’ Trump told DailyMail.com in a wide-ranging interview at an Indianapolis hotel during his last day of campaigning in the Hoosier State.
‘Now, let’s see what happens. Indiana’s a great state and I have the support of Bobby Knight and so many other people. We’ll have to see what happens, but yes, I think he should get out of the race,’ Trump said.
The Republican front-runner also said Cruz’s ‘tough temperament’ might make him unsuitable for a spot on his short-list of potential Supreme Court nominees – a consolation prize he could offer the Texas as a party-unifying gesture.
Instead, Trump insisted Ted prepare to pack his bags – and doubled down on his demand later during a lunchtime stop at Shapiro’s Delicatessen a few blocks from Lucas Oil Stadium. (Read more from “Time to Quit, Ted! Trump Tells Cruz to Get Ready to ‘Leave the Race'” HERE)
