As Rush posted within the past hour:

One thing interesting about all of this negative news about Ted Cruz coming out, is somebody’s getting worried about him. I mean, there’s no reason for this stuff to be coming out the way it is, with such intensity and frequency, if people weren’t concerned.

It had to come out.

If not the GOPe, the left would take Cruz out with this if Cruz got the nomination. That would have been even more hurtful to him & his family.

This smells like Mitch McConnell. Cruz did not apologize.

This begs a greater question, since we went through crap like this with other candidates, why do they even run with this type of skeleton in their closet?

Thanks for sharing this, but I don’t think it will deter certain partisans from doubling down on their claims.

Don’t believe liberal Twitter twattle.

The Ashley Madison crap was debunked last year.

When Cruz attacked Trump’s wife....

We all knew Trump was not going to just let this go by.

No Trump is not “putting out image that the NE is correct.”

Ted’s problem IS directly with the Enquirer. Ted should sue them and win a boatload of money to penalize the NE and clear his family’s name.

You must not have read what Trump said.

Why did Trump say this then "and while they were right about O.J. Simpson, John Edwards, and many others"

The Cruz people and the Trump people are throwing so much disgusting BS at each other that I might pull the lever for Kasich on April 26, and I REALLY don’t want to do that.

A pox on both your houses.

Yep. Irrelevant now. William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar: “Cry ‘Havoc!’, and let slip the dogs of war”.

and while they were right about O.J. Simpson, John Edwards, and many others,

Where is the 99%’they made fairy tales up which had nothing to do with reality?
Did Trump forget to mention that he has been endorsed by the creepy National Enquirer and that he is in cahoots with these slimeball gutter “journalists”?

Doesn’t matter if it’s without merit or not. Remember those defamation laws Trump was talking about, how they need to be changed? Well, it’s Cruz’s turn in that barrel now because unless he can prove the NE knew the stories were false and published them knowing this, they are free and clear. This is what “absence of malice” means, and if you think it’s unfair, there’s plenty of room on the Trump train. In the meantime, you’re stuck with the law as it is.

“Likewise, I have nothing to do with the National Enquirer and unlike Lyin’ Ted Cruz I do not surround myself with political hacks and henchman and then pretend total innocence”

*********

This fall, New York’s national-affairs reporter Gabriel Sherman wrote about the close relationship between GOP front-runner Donald Trump and the Enquirer CEO David Pecker after the tabloid printed some stories about Ben Carson’s alleged medical mishaps. Per Sherman:

This person also said that Trump’s campaign was a source for the [Carson] article: “His campaign provided information that was used,” he explained. A Trump friend said that in the days leading up to the article’s publication Trump was telling people that Carson “had a lot of medical malpractice suits” and “almost killed a guy.”

**********

Donald Trump’s Alliance With the National Enquirer

Trump and Enquirer CEO David Pecker have been friends for years. “They’re very close,” said a source close to the Enquirer. In July 2013, Trump even tweeted that Pecker should become CEO of Time magazine, which at the time was being spun off from its corporate parent, Time Warner. “He’d make it exciting and win awards!”

We have seen throughout this entire campaign how Ted Cruz has slandered Donald Trump with reckless charges of outrageous assumptions.

There is no doubt in my mind that Trump is telling the truth about not knowing anything about this.

Like my mother suggested a little while ago, if Cruz is so upset about these reports of infidelity, he’s a lawyer, why doesn’t he bring a lawsuit against them?

Our source says that with Trump “protected” by the tabloid, “Some of the staff are furious. Trump’s such fertile ground, and it drives them crazy to not only be staying away from it, but running puff pieces for him.”

Trump and Pecker have certainly been known to scratch each other’s backs.

This week’s Enquirer features a piece under the screaming red banner: “Charismatic billionaire Donald Trump writes exclusively for the Enquirer.” In the column, entitled “America is being laughed at … and things must change!” Trump outlines his qualifications for the White House, including the fact that in his view, wife Melania “would make a terrific first lady!”

In 2010, Trump tweeted, “David Pecker would be a brilliant choice as CEO of TIME Magazine — nobody could bring it back like David!”

Cruz started it by not being able to keep his wiener where it belongs.
