What if Cruz tried this on Trump?

Less than 1% of voter would get that email.
I deem the story a hoax

Again? If true this is very bad for Cruz’s propensity for truth and veracity. Very bad.

If rumors about one dropping out of the race is believable enough to be damaging, it’s a sign one should be dropping out because his campaign is over.
To: Citizen Zed
If they were passing along a CNN story, then it seems like the issue should be with CNN for false reporting, not with the Cruz campaign. I doubt Ted Cruz is able to control anything CNN is publishing.

Everyone has the right to say they think the other guy is going to get out of the race. This has been going on for 200 years. Its part of the game. Trump does it too. He just does it loudly. So everyone can see. But Trump does everything loudly.

Carson...now Rubio...
Kaisch is obviously next...
To: Citizen Zed
Rubio lies. No one said he was withdrawing. People are saying a vote for Rubio is a wasted vote since he has no chance. That is a fair thing to say. It’s an opinion. Rubio is doing the same thing to Cruz and then lying about Cruz.

Rubio is dropping out of the race. He just hasn’t decided when.

Good point. The best defense against "getting out" rumors it to actually have a credible campaign.

Cruz is scum. If he gets the nomination, I hope a good candidate will run in the Constitutional Party. I have never not voted for the nominee, but I can't imagine voting for Cruz. He just wears slimmey well.

Does anyone notice that both times the ORIGINAL source of this was CNN?
something is not passing the smell test here. If I were Senator Cruz I would tell my rapid response team to NOT instantly respond to anything from CNN UNLESS it was an attack on Cruz. Everything else from CNN needs to be cross verified by another source before responding.

Cruz has already came out and said it wasn’t his team, and the thing got stopped.
Re-routes to Google, or something like that.
Not a Tech Geek, so I can’t tell you how it all works.
