Cruz campaign did not lie.
You are on this thread lying about the Cruz campaign.
The fact is that CNN reported that Carson was going home to Florida and would not go immediately to NH or SC.
CNN reported that this was unusual. Trump, Rubio, and Cruz campaigns all rightly reported this odd foolish plan by Carson to delegates so they could make their own decision about who was serious about pursuing the Presidency.
It would be irresponsible to not pass along this information that was issued as Breaking News by CNN and folks like Jake Tapper.
Trump lied when he congratulated Cruz on his victory Monday night. Now Trump wants a re-do.
There is no evidence that Cruz or any other campaign reported that Carson was out.
Carson is being unethical to refuse to discuss CNN’s reporting as the key starting point and also pretending that someone said Carson was out.
The clarification came out quickly. The Cruz camp ignored it and went with the scam. That is why Cruz apologized. They did what they did.

Dan Gabriel is Cruz' PR director. He tweeted this at 7:02 pm and the caucuses didn't start till 8. He later tried to blame it on the trump campaign. He had deleted these tweets later on into the night.. sleaze incarnate.
He started the whole thing..
Obviously you have entirely discounted the messages sent to all 1500 of the Cruz precinct captains of which there are copiess. 7:01 p.m. if i remember correctly. This WAS REFUTED by the CARSON campaign shortly before 8:00...yet at 8: 20 or later, King sent out a message reporting the first message and urging Carson support go to Cruz. This was AFTER the Carson message had gone out.
CRUZ LIED. There is hard evidence that Cruz cannot deny. In fact he has admitted it and thinks it will blow over. But it won’t blow over.
CNN never said Carson was suspending his campaign, just that he wasn’t going directly to NH. Cruz embellished the story ro his advantage.
Then when CNN reported Carson was only going to Florida for one day, Cruz didn’t bother to pass that along.
Mrs. Carson disputed Cruz’s claim at one of the caucuses, but that wasn’t passed along either.
If the first but of embellished information could be passed fro caucus to caucus at lightning speed, so could the retraction.
