It is perfectly permissible for a candidate to ask a PAc to take down or disavow an ad. It has happened several time in the race so far. Trump has even disavowed any PACs that tried to startup,on his behalf.

All Cruz has to say is stop. He will not because it AIDS him.

Funny, but I haven't noticed Trump saying "stop" to all of the leftist Democrats that have jumped on board the Trump train and that have put up negative Cruz ads. Double-standard much?

The only reason Trump "publicly disavowed" super PACs is because he, as a fatcat billionaire, can afford to self-finance/fund his own campaign and he doesn't need any PACs. Conversely, he knows that his opponents need the help from PACs and can not afford to self-fund. Typical dishonest liberal PR tactic, not to mention dishonest motivations, IOW.

The vast majority of money going to Trump's campaign is listed as loans rather than direct payments. If he doesn't plan to take donations for his run, why is he making loans to his campaign? Is he planning to pay himself back with other people's money once he's fooled everyone in the primary?

It's a good question. Trump is legendary cheap. Nothing wrong with that, but I just don't see him spending hundreds of millions of his own money to win the election. We'll see.

For example? Who are you referring to?
