Oh for gosh sakes. The ‘mother’ thing was Ted’s little joke to show how far Donald is reaching on the birther issue.
He wasn’t serious and he had a Reagan moment when he promised not to go after Trump’s mother.
I’ve noticed Trump supporters never seem to get Ted’s humor.
No, Ted was playing good politics by trying to deflect the matter away from himself and onto Trump. Well, after 8 yrs of Obama, America is waking up and Cruz knows it and he let it get to him. It wasn’t just Ted’s words, it was hid demeanor and body language that gave him away.
