Oh, to be a fly on the wall of that White House dining room tonight.

Donald J. Trump and first lady Melania Trump have invited Ted and Heidi Cruz over for dinner.

Oh … my.

Trump and Cruz once were bitter foes seeking the Republican Party presidential nomination that Trump eventually won. Along the way, well, you know … it became white-hot with hatred.

Trump called Cruz “Lyin’ Ted” and then tweeted that unflattering picture of Heidi Cruz. There also was that lie Trump told about Cruz’s father being seen in the company of Lee Harvey Oswald, suggesting that the elder Cruz might have been complicit in President Kennedy’s assassination.

Then came the bombastic response from Cruz, who called Trump a “sniveling coward” over his crass treatment of Heidi Cruz and the rest of his family.

All is forgotten and forgiven tonight? Are they asking us to think that’s the case?

I would pay real American money to be able to watch how these two couples break the ice.
