So why doesn’t Cruz address this issue rather than laughing it off? He needs to clear it up.
Pray America wakes
Yep & Yep
The inept handling of this has been his undoing. His defense is basically, "I'm NBC because I said so, and so did these other really smart people."
The problem is that opponents have trotted out their own really smart people who say, "Not so fast."
I know the Cruz base is really pissed at Trump for this, but you have to know it was coming. Better now than against Hillary (or whoever wins the D nomination).
PS. Cruz could have used some political cover from other respected politicians, all of whom have kept out of things. Their silence speaks volumes. Being an independent cuss is one thing, but it appears that he does not have any political allies who are willing to vouch for him.
He has 11 days to clear it up. Might be a bit late.
