(NBC) - Donald Trump says he regrets retweeting an unflattering photo of the wife of rival Ted Cruz, a rare move for the Republican front-runner more known for his boasts than backtracking.
"Yeah, it was a mistake," Trump told New York Times.
"If I had to do it again, I wouldn't have sent it."
The retweet set off a war of words between the two candidates, and gave fresh fuel to Democratic candidates and other critics who marveled at a Republican presidential race that had descended into a fight over the candidates' wives.
Trump retweeted the photo compilation showing an unflattering picture of Heidi Cruz and his own wife, Melania, after he accused Cruz of being behind or at least knowing about an ad that featured an old picture of Melania Trump posing nude for GQ magazine.
Cruz has denied any involvement in the ad, which was shared online. Cruz scolded Trump after the retweet, admonishing the businessman: "Donald, real men don't attack women."
told Dowd, according to the column. "So what's your next question?"
When it’s time for change, change will happen-—dragging your heels will be of no avail.
#184 You tell us. He claims to read the bible “more than anyone else” and He met the 2 Corinthians on time.....
Yeah that’s it...
He claimed Ted Cruz was behind that picture and his campaign manager at the time said they knew all along he wasn’t. He claims Ted Cruz was personally behind the Carson thing when he knows he wasn’t!!! Trump lied when he said he was against the Irag war from the beginning!!!
List for me the statements that are not facts. It will be painful but you can do it because there are none.
Post #224!!
Just like he supports the 2 amendment!!!
#207 Trump/David Pecker/N.E. smear piece
Carson says Trump is a liar too.
Same level of proof.
#218 his number 2 Supporter Ben Carson says after Talking to him that Donnie Doesn’t believe what he says campaigning.
Knowingly telling a falsehood to get something is not only a lie it’s deception and Fraud if done in business.
Hnmmmmmm where have we heard that charge against Trump Before? Oh yeah those three class action Lawsuits alleging Fraud in two States.
MAybe Donnie can call Ben Carson as a character witness in the lawsuits.. Bwahahaha
But Carson is a lying Cruz supporter...Oh Wait!!!
You do realize that independents are a big factor in northeast Wisconsin, and periodically voters in the state as a whole, swing vote in a chaotic manner. A single poll taken based on a republican enclave of 3 counties does not represent the whole state accurately????
Trump steps back ONCE and you act like it’s his natural state.
He’s seen some polling that says he needs to step this back. That’s all.
That's BS. Post Carpenter's FULL response!!!
blamed cruz, well that is a first seeing all we have heard for weeks is blaming Trump. Infact it was getting worse than blaming Bush
So you believe a single poll of independents is the true harbinger of the election results....when virtually every other poll shows Cruz with a ten point lead!!
no he is not know,.
At least he can admit it being wrong.
Why should his voters say sorry, when infact his voters are the ones fighting the establishment and the cruz supporters are helping the establishment,
shame on them.
E
dass a vowel
Trump says he will heal all wounds when he gets the nomination....does that include the “establishment”????
No you seem to have jumped to conclusion.
He said sorry and it is refreshing that someone running can do that.
It really is that plain and simple.
