Trump dismisses Cruz explanation in fight over wife's photo
The Washington Examiner ^ | 3/23/2016 | Gabby Morrongiello

Posted on 03/23/2016 8:11:34 AM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Donald Trump on Wednesday kept up his attack against Ted Cruz by claiming the Texas senator is behind a recent ad showing Trump's wife Melania in the nude.

Trump first accused Cruz on Tuesday of circulating a provocative image of Melania from a January 2000 photoshoot with GQ Magazine. In the accusation posted to Trump's Twitter account, the brash businessman also said he would "spill the beans" on Cruz's wife, Heidi.

But the Texas senator said he had "nothing to do" with the ad after the anti-Trump Make America Awesome PAC took credit for it.

On Wednesday, Trump slammed "Lyin' Ted Cruz" over his repeated assurance that he took no part in the development or circulation of the ad.

Cruz hit back at Trump Wednesday morning – hours before the billionaire's latest tweet – during an interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo.

"It reveals a lot about class, that Donald's instinct is to try to attack my wife and sully her," he said.

What smear? Unless Trump or you are ashamed of the pics?

The point is that it's Trumps wife, not Trump. How would you feel if Trump made an ad that portrayed Heidi Cruz as bat* crazy based on a public police report?

Oh damn, that won’t work, she’s not a natural born citizen...

Melania is more likely to have citizenship papers than Ted the Canuck. Have we ever seen his naturalization papers.

Do I spill the dirt I have on Obama and his birth certificate or the dirt I have on Heidi Cruz?....

The dirt on Heidi Cruz is easily available. It just needs to be highlighted in a creative way.

Exactly. I thought it was funny watching Heidi Cruz trend to #1 on Twitter last night. The attack on Melania backfired big time. Everyone already knew Melania was a model and had probably seen the pics.

Twitter world went wild exposing Heidi Cruz and her past actions and associations. I'm sure many people learned a lot they didn't know about Heidi. Heh heh.

Adding to the fun was watching Amanda Carpenter, Dana Loesch and Liz Mair acting like teenagers on Twitter and slamming Trump and Melania. DC media meltdown continues.

Since that ad would only harm Trump, I'd feel great about it.

“There’s irony in the fact that Trump threatened to ‘expose’ Heidi Cruz simply because his wife decided to literally expose herself.” — John Miceli (@JohnMiceli15)

“Of course he dismissed it. Trump and his dishonest supporters can’t use it as a club in their ongoing character assassination if they simply acknowledge the truth and dismiss it. ‘
___________________________________________________________

Of course Cruz didn’t dismiss the ad. Cruz and his dishonest supporters make excuses for the ad. His supporters will continue a back door, on going character assassination of Trump and his wife. Cruz supporters simply won’t acknowledge the truth that Cruz is a liar and fraud.

Fixed it.

Not true. Cruz is using his PACs to get into the White House and worse unison Trump's wife.

Trump knows exactly how PACs work and the damage they can do. That is why he has shut down PACs that support him.

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/11/05/donald-trump-forgoing-scam-super-pacs-raised-500-million/

Name a Trump PAC?

This Cruz Pac debacle tells me that Cruz has been swallowed up by The Establishment and the Bush Machine. If Cruz can't handle PACs, how will Cruz with stand The Establishment, his donors (the Donor Class/K Street) and MSM Establishment?

An anti-Trump PAC does not answer to Ted Cruz not would an anti-Cruz PAC answer to Trump.

Which possibly explains why Trump removed the tweet

It’s interesting that Trump thinks he can suppress PAC’s that don’t belong to him.

Very scary.

You know full well that Cruz didn’t put out that ad. Why do you promote the lie that he was in any way connected to the superPAC that put out that ad?

Promote truth, sister in Christ. Not lies. For God’s sake. If you reject truth, you reject the Author of Truth. I appeal to you to speak truth, even if it hurts your political cause.

"The dirt on Heidi Cruz is easily available. It just needs to be highlighted in a creative way."

Yeah, but Trump won't say it because he is all bluster.

What he just did with his "threat" was he sent out marching orders to his goons, lapdogs and foaming-at-the-mouth supporters and have them do the dirty work so he can sit back and say, "Who? ME?, why I didn't say anything about Ted's wife. Other people are saying things. That's just what I heard..."

He's a coward.
