Did you notice that none of the other candidates are making an issue about it? It's almost as if they decided to let Cruz self-destruct.

I've seen posted on FB that Rubio sent out a similar mailing to Cruz's but no one (GOPe) made a big deal about it.

IMO, the mailer went against the image Cruz was trying to portray. I think if Trump sent out a mailer like that it wouldn't get the same reaction.

re: the reaction to Cruz's shaming letter

The technique is bad enough, but the level of intimidation and misrepresentation in it goes waaay beyond "everybody does it". It shows a TOTAL lack of judgement.

I'd like to see Rubio's letter if it's true. If it's the same extreme garbage, I'd have the same reaction to it.

Yes, that's it exactly.

If Trump sent one of those shaming letters to me I drop him in a second. If any candidate sent one of those to me or sent one to anybody they would not get my support. The Stalinesque tone of that letter was revolting and shines a light on the character of the person who sent it.

I’ve seen posted on FB that Rubio sent out a similar mailing to Cruz’s but no one (GOPe) made a big deal about it.

That is because Rubio didn’t put names on there’s like idiot boy Cruz did.

Rubio’s mailer didn’t name neighbors either.

I’m a major Trump supporter and I would be EXTREMELY P.O.ed if he had pulled something that underhanded and stupid.
