Over the weekend the “Cuban Sandwich,” comprised of Senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, continued the tag team hits on Donald Trump in the waning days before Super Tuesday.
Rubio hit Trump while on the campaign trail, giving The Donald some of his own medicine by the use of ad hominem attacks.

And one a bit more serious.
Rubio: "There is a lunatic in North Korea trying to get a nuclear weapon and a lunatic trying to get ahold of nuclear weapons in America."

The Rubio campaign also released two videos, both directly skewering Trump. One was aimed at Trump’s alleged love for “poorly educated people.”

The other raised questions about Trump’s dangerous ignorance of foreign policy.

Meanwhile, down in the Peach State, Georgians witnessed Ted Cruz in full verbal combat as he tore down Trump’s vaunted business record and his reluctance to release his taxes:
“Now this is a man who prides himself on not getting scared of anything. So you’re telling me, a few months from now, you may be charged with tax fraud? Now maybe not — I’m not suggesting it — I’m saying release the returns and let the people see. Because if we’re sitting here in September and October, how much can you imagine the mainstream media salivating over whatever scandal they can paint on Donald Trump?”
Here’s a bit of the Senator’s passionate speech in Georgia:
CNN also reported that Cruz has released his tax records, as has Marco Rubio.
Cruz is releasing tax returns for 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 and calls on Trump to release his.
"It is time to stop the excuses,” Cruz says.

Donald Trump getting hit on both sides by the Cuban Sandwich was a bit too much for Trump spokesperson Scottie Hughes, who expressed her frustration by using an expletive while appearing on CNN. CNN reporter John Avlon pointed out that Rubio took his cues for using personal attacks from none other than The Donald himself.
So who’s the ham getting grilled in the middle of the Cuban Sandwich? Why, Trump of course. Expect more helpings of it in the next few days.
