specifically ted cruz. the moderator asked you the other night, said you had called cruz a maniac over the weekend and suggested he didn t have the temperament to be president. when you were asked that on stage in the debate, you responded by saying, let me just say that i ve gotten to know him over the last three or four days, he has a wonderful temperament. i m just curious if you could explain what you meant you ve gotten to know him over the last three or four days. in what way and what did you learn? honestly, in all fairness, i was being cute, i was having fun, i did it with a big smile, and frankly, you know, i mean, he s of all of the people running, i will say and i get along with most of them, hard to believe. most people would say, that s not true, but it is true. i actually get along with most of them. one of the things that s amazing to me is off the stage, it s like a love fest. of course, that s politicians. that s the way politicians behave. you know, you don t
memorized a couple of lines given to his pollster. his pollster handed him a couple of lines. but i think jeb makes a mistake, because first of all, his poll numbers haven t gone up at all since the debate. now, maybe i haven t seen all the polls. but jeb has a lot of people to go through before he gets to me. i think that s true with most of them. so, i probably would agree that you have to go after the couple of people that are right in front of you, frankly. harold. mr. trump, harold ford, good morning. hi, harold. four years ago, mitt romney said that russia was our biggest strategic enemy, several years before president obama said that he would reach out to adversaries by phone. he received criticism from democrats and republicans for saying that. now you have putin saying that he would have this great relationship with you. can you understand why some would wonder, for years, russia s been our biggest adversary, perhaps biggest frustration, the u.n. security council deali

but with ted cruz, you know, he is i ve gotten along with him very nicely and i very cutely said it it was very well accepted, because he said nice things about me. when people say nice things about me, i think i generally reciprocate, and i was being little bit cute and it got a big laugh and that was the end of that, yeah. okay. look, let me ask you about something joe said here the other day after the debate, when he saw your behavior with senator cruz on stage. joe said there s an inside deal between these guys, whether it s a direct deal or an indirect deal, donald and senator cruz have decided not to go after each other because that s in their political interests. is that true? well, it s not true, but we got along very well prior to the debate. we re standing up. we didn t talk about this, we didn t do that, but i mean, we did speak, not about this, not about let s get along. it wasn t like that but we got along very nicely. and i really didn t know what to expect. look,
