“So when he stepped aside when a PAC went after Trump’s wife in Cruz’s name that was honorable and supported family values?”

Seriously, are you really this stupid?

Again, I will explain this for you and all other Trumpbots for the umpteenth time, Cruz did not step aside, he did not have prior knowledge of this, and he did not order it.

He could not do any of those things, because he is legally prohibited from even having contact with PACs.

Do you know this, or is it just convenient for you to repeat a bunch of lies?

I'm sorry, you are having trouble with the underlying logic of my remarks.

1. Cruz does not directly control PACs, either those established in his name nor those like the PAC that is running his ads which was started to attack Trump but supports Cruz as a means to an end.

2. There are a myriad of ways politicians and PACs have found to get around the non coordination laws and they are doing so in this election cycle. How Super PACs And Campaigns Are Coordinating In 2016

3. Whether Cruz was directly responsible or not his name was associated with the ad "Or you could vote for Ted Cruz". If he does not agree with the tactic he needs to repudiate it. Silence is assent once you are part of the ad.

4. Trump punched his ticket by telling Cruz if you think this is OK (Silence is assent) then turn about is fair play. Suddenly Ted is talking about microagression.

It’s likely Cruz didn’t know about it in advance. However, he should have condemned the ad & didn’t. Shame on the PAC. Shame on Cruz again. Have a nice day.
