Holy crap.
Reading your post, I’m starting to suspect.
I always thought that it was a little odd how so much of Cruz’s words came verbatim from some of his more crazed followers on FR weeks before he said them.
And now this story comes out, and before I can even figure out what happened, the usual suspects are screaming that it’s all Trump’s fault that this story broke. And right after that, Cruz blames Trump for it.
...you think that this is campaign ops? It’s just too much of a coincidence for me to accept as a coincidence.
Who here posted about copulating with rats before Cruz said it? What a moron ;
i think so based solely on the fact that Cruz skipped the enquirer story completely and blamed it on Donald. No "If the Enquirer doesn't withdraw this story I will sue them for libel". This is classic libel...IF it's not true or provable. The fact that Cruz isn't saying either means it is true OR he knows it's not true and is using it as a campaign trick to impugn Trump. He (Cruz) has the best of the Washington slime machine taking over his campaign now.
There are millions and millions of dollars floating around this cycle. You don’t think some of those dollars were spent for paid bloggers? Also, FR has always attracted its share of operatives and campaign insiders.
The barrier to entry at FR is set very low. So its easy to join regardless of your motivation or intentions. For the most part that works well. We get brilliant insights from folks who would otherwise not be heard from. We also hear from a fair share of fools, and we do have our villains.
