Of course they may still speak up. He just announced. When we actually get more candidates and the election starts to kick up if he shows himself as a potential legit challenger we might start hearing them speak out.

This is called "politics" and it's business as usual.
It's a bit stunning that someone can reach so high up in government office, yet hold duel citizenship. Not sure about anyone else, and I acknowledge a fair percentage of us are immigrants to some degree, but I think someone who is a Senator or Congressman shouldn't be a citizen of another country.
But this is all part of politics. Cruz cannot make a run at the White House while having duel citizenship. Jeb Bush too has been spending the past year dropping his business ties; Ironically, Jeb Bush made a lot of money off of Obamacare. And it's not only the Republicans who do this - I believe Hilary's entire work history since her husband was President was designed for a run at the White House also.
