I dont’ think Trump had anything to do with this...the story as reported by many media people originated with the Rubio campaign. The timing was appropriate, as Cruz has been running as the God candidate.
Just because Trump tweeted about spilling the beans.. so? Heidi has that weird police report sitting out there... so spilling the beans probably had something to do with that.
I just haven’t quite figured out why Cruz campaign keeps mentioning Trump, as they know it will keep the story going. My skeptical side thinks, they’re using this to have reporters follow him around to get more press. He will then either come out with a firm statement of denial, or a mea culpa.
I think it works against Cruz because lately every sentence he utters begins with the word “Donald”. I honestly haven’t heard him talk about anything except “Donald” in the past 2 weeks (maybe more). He is making the same mistake Rubio and Bush made....probably with the same results.
