They both may have poisoned the well on that option with their recent feud involving their wives.
I don’t think so.
Both have justifiable positions. Ted himself, did not first attack Trump’s wife.
That said, a campaign contributor of sorts of Cruz, did launch the first strike. That was uncalled for, and was why Trump responded.
So while Cruz himself did not actually start things, his campaign (in a way) did. Completely.
So they are both right.
I think that was very unfortunate, but can be worked around. Not a problem in my book.
(of course, it wasn’t a member of my family, so it could be different to them)
They’re both adults, and so are their wives.
They understood there would be stuff like that.
Move on.
