“Trump only brought this up to muddy the waters,”
The issue of Cruz’ status re citizenship had been floating around for YEARS before Trump came on the scene. It took a 15-second Google search (ted cruz citizenship problem 2013) to get hundreds of results.
In March 2013 it was being discussed seriously by Forbes.
So you’re being dishonest by attributing the issue to Trump.
I never said he was the very first person too mention the issue. But he certainly brought it to the forefront and has been pushing it relentlessly ever since.
This of course after he said it wasn’t an issue. That was before Cruz started gaining on him.
Don’t try to bullsh!t me bro.
The point is not that Cruz’s citizenship has never been brought up, but that Trump is almost certainly raising it to befuddle conservative voters who otherwise would have enthusiastically supported Cruz. And in that respect, I wholeheartedly agree with Trader Rob.
Peace,
