SORRY, BUT YOU AND SOME OTHER TRUMP SUPPORTERS HERE ARE VERY WRONG. Sen. Cruz also has an argument with Trump on the sexual rumors attacks.

The Associated Press has to be in Hillary Clinton’s camp, yet here is a paragraph from the AP’s Saturday story in my Northern California newspaper:

“The Cruz story published this week in the tabloid described what it called rumors, PROVIDING NO EVIDENCE that Cruz had engaged in an extramarital affair. THE ONLY SOURCE quoted by name was a former Trump campaign adviser, Roger Stone, who said such “stories have been swirling around Cruz for some time” without offering any evidence they are true.”

SO LET’S RECAP: Trump has lived a rather immoral, sleazy life, dumping two wives for mistresses and then being a serial adulterer (by his own accounts in two books). So now Trump’s pal at the National Enquirer (the publisher) runs a sleazeball story attacking Cruz as having affairs and the only source quoted is Trump’s advocate, Roger Stone. WHO IN THE SANDHILL IS CIRCULATING THE RUMORS — none other than Roger Stone. The source of the attacks on Cruz keeps coming back to Trump — what a doubly sleazy guy.

“stories have been swirling around Cruz for some time”

There’s nothing to take issue with here: this is a true statement. Then then story goes on to cover the very stories in question, which have been discussed by Rubio people and other GOP operatives and the press under the hashtag #TheThing on twitter publicly, and who else even knows privately, for months now.

So, you can get all high and mighty about it if you want to, but all evidence suggests this had nothing to with Trump, the Melania ad, or anything else. It’s all Cruz and nothing but the Cruz, and his denial of the allegations was weaksauce and his profession of innocence/fidelity was non-existent.

The source of the allegations is pretty well established by now. You simply don't want to concede that it is the Rubio camp, not Trump.

As for your reference to Trump as sleazy, I say that he appears to be the only moral candidate left in the race.

Roger Stone's principal contribution is an "on the record" source that the rumors have been swirling for a while. Heck, I could have told you that. They've been swirling here on FR. Numerous media sources have already confirmed that they knew about the story.

In any event, Senator Cruz's problems are his, and his alone.

You might ponder the following:

Cruz: "I don't support people who attack my family"

To: Cincinatus' Wife

"What a scummy jerk. Cruz can go copulate himself."

And then there is this:

"Don’t look now, but Trump is the only anti-establishment candidate left running. The GOPe is now backing Cruz to the hilt and he’s doing their bidding. Fiorino has come out for the GOPe big time, and is throwing all her schoolmarm charm Cruz’s way. Rubio’s a fricking amnesty traitor and Kasich is all in big government GOPe.

Thankfully, Carson has seen the light and so has Sessions and they’re backing Trump.

Cruz has let his ambition get the better of him and has lost it. He’s been thoroughly indoctrinated, corrupted and absorbed by those we’re fighting against. He’s now fighting with the GOP and the establishment political class against We The People.

And unfortunately, some of our very own have been unwittingly sucked into the GOPe vortex."

We've already seen some of the most egregious Trump-hating trolls ride the lightning over the past few days, as any Constitutional expert lawyer might say:

"Govern Yourself Accordingly"
