Trump to NYT on Heidi Cruz retweet: 'Yeah, it was a mistake'

from twitter:

Pic of your wife not from us. Donald, if you try to attack Heidi, you’re more of a coward than I thought. #classless Ted Cruz added,

It was from a Cruz super pac. How does that quote read that he disavowed the ad?

It was from a Cruz super pac.

No it was not. It was from the Make America Awesome super PAC. They are anti-Trump, not pro-Cruz.

How does that quote read that he disavowed the ad?

Cruz tweeted to Trump, "Pic of your wife not from us." Can't you read?

BTW, even if Make America Awesome were pro-Cruz, Cruz's disavowal would still stand, since candidates are forbidden from coordinating with PACs.

Liz Mair, who runs Make America Awesome, is quite proud of her little ad (boldface in original):

When asked if Cruz had any involvement in the ad, she said this:

I — absolutely not. Of course he didn’t. I mean next thing Donald Trump is going to be out there claiming that it was like the Illuminati or something and that will be just as equally plausible as what he’s claiming here. No, it’s totally bogus. People can blame me if they don’t like the ad. The fact is, the ad worked. The ad did exactly what we intended it to do and it’s done far more than that. The reality is that part of the reason that Donald Trump is tanking right now is because he’s bothered spending a week and a half getting pissed off and acting like a toddler having a major meltdown over this ad.

Watch above to see the entire thing go down.
