Cruz’ PR person Dan Gabriel said in a tweet which he later deleted that the Cruz people confirmed with the Carson people that Carson was dropping out. Cruz and his peeps are implicated.
Not really. Gabriel said he confirmed with someone in CArson’s NH crew. That NH crew had all quit the Carson campaign the day before, saying they love Carson but needed to work with someone could win (Cruz). That sounds like people who have been told that Carson would not campaign in NH because he would be announcing his resignation.
Chances are good that Gabriel DID talk to someone from Carson’s NH campaign, and was told that they had left the campaign because Carson was going to resign. But then Carson had to change the story so that the IA voters would still think he was in it - so he could have his resignation announcement on his own terms, which is fair of him to want and I think Cruz probably recognized that and it’s why he apologized.
