Something as volatile as this, a spokesman admitting he sent it is a far different thing than being an approved action on the part of Cruz and/or the campaign.
One guy going off or a planned campaign action, too little information to make that call.
Nobody in the LSM is on this: because there’s something wrong and nobody likes issuing retractions or apologies. Cruz didn’t know of or approve this, if I’m wrong I’ll start a thread for all the razzing FReepers can throw at me.
As catnipman out so well:
“The problem is if he knew about it, then his judgement is bad; if he didn’t know about it, then he is unable to manage his own campaign, which throws doubt on his ability to manage the United States government.â€
