Man, this is going to make the inevitable Rubio endorses Cruz photo op next week awkward unless it torpedoes the possibility of an endorsement altogether. Better that it comes out now than after the Cruz/Rubio unity ticket forms, eh?
It may very well be that Trumps allies handed the story off to the Enquirer, say Betsy Woodruff and Asawin Suebsaeng, given Trumps chumminess with CEO David Pecker. But Rubioworld was there first.
For months and months, anti-Cruz operatives have pitched a variety of #CruzSexScandal stories to a host of prominent national publications, according to Republican operatives and media figures. The New York Times, The Washington Post, Bloomberg News, Politico, and ABC Newsreporters at all those outlets heard some version of the Cruz-is-cheating story. None of them decided to run with rumors. Those publications representatives all declined to provide on-the-record comments when The Daily Beast reached out for this article.
Breitbart News, the notoriously Trump-friendly conservative outlet, was also pitched the story of Cruzs extramarital affairs, according to a source close to the publication. That source said an operative allied with Marco Rubiobut not associated with his official campaignshowed the publication a compilation video of Cruz and a woman other than his wife coming out of the Capitol Grille restaurant and a hotel on Tuesdays and Thursdays. But the outlet opted not to report on the video, which demonstrated no direct evidence of an affair.
We got it from a Rubio ally, said the source. It was too thin, so [Breitbarts Washington political editor Matt Boyle] decided not to run it. There was no way to verify the claims.

Like I said it is better for this to come out now. Hillary sure as hell will bring it out.

This fired Washington Times writer told people last month NOT to vote for Cruz in Texas. He said he was a Rubio supporter. Totally biased source!

The Donald made him do it. :-)
Yep...they would have published no matter how thin as soon as Hillary gave the orders. Thank God it's coming out now. Cruz already had no way to win the nomination outright...hopefully this will facilitate his exit from the race.
You can spam every thread in here with that same stuff, and no one reads it any longer because you posted it.
You can’t bail out the sinking ship with a coffee cup, no matter how hard you think you’re trying.
Until Cruz comes out and credibly denies any involvement with these women directly, or files suit against NE, he has no leg to stand on. Trying lamely to blame Trump says nothing about Cruz. Crying wolf has gotten old.
at least a cruz/Rubio ticket could win.
trump loses by 20 to an old socialist.
his put downs of women will crush him.
this is bad.
this story is a spider....... it has legs, at least 8 legs
PING
Rubio will NEVER make that endorsement. He’s still hoping for a Hail Mary catch at a brokered convention
