Ted Cruz hired those “sleaze ball” tactics. Jeff Row was not hired for his organizational powers alone. He ran the governor campaign, where the dirty tricks triggered the opponent’s suicide.
Even after IOWA, Cruz unapologetically issued the creepy sounding robo calls against TRUMP, still skirting the edges of propriety by his “joy” filled campaign.
He does lie. By omission. Staging 20 year old comments in ads against another candidate, as if they were still held today is a Cruz signature tactic.
You are right. His campaign handlers killed the dog and spoiled the Cruz brand of righteousness. But, he hired them to do it.
Is there any proof that it was the Cruz campaign behind the SC Trump robocalls? Other than what Trump said at the last debate, that is.
