Not true. Trump knows exactly how PACs work and the damage they can do. That is why he has shut down PACs that support him.

Name a Trump PAC?

This Cruz Pac debacle tells me that Cruz has been swallowed up by The Establishment and the Bush Machine. If Cruz can't handle PACs, how will Cruz with stand The Establishment, his donors (the Donor Class/K Street) and MSM Establishment?

It’s not Cruz’s PAC, it’s an Anti-Trump PAC. Cruz has condemned the ad, not that the news bothers to report that, but there’s no reason to assume he has any control over the PAC because the PAC is more anti-Trump than pro-Cruz (and a small fry compared to the Anti-Trump “Our Principles” PAC).

Trump did not “handle” the pro-Trump PAC that shut down; he made it clear where he stood and, as Trump fans, they honored that. The Washington Post was also trying to cause legal trouble over Trump’s PAC. Not the same situation here.

About all a super PAC does is run ads for or against candidates; Trump already has all the publicity he needs, so he doesn’t really need any super PACs. The media is not giving any of his competitors anything like so much free publicity.
