If the National Enquirer had printed the same story about you, would you immediately take to the airwaves and start blaming Trump for it?

Lol! Nope, but Trump hasn't twitter attacked my wife, either, or blamed me for what an independent PAC has done (posting a picture his wife posed for).

A Cruz PAC put out a smear ad showing Melania Trump in a naked pose.

Ted Cruz, upon discovering this, did not immediately condemn the ad. Instead, he chose to merely distance himself from it, saying in effect, “I dindu nuffin.”

Trump rightfully came out with strong criticism of the ad, and of Ted, for failing to call it what it was - pure sleaze politics, which Ted benefited from.

When the National Enquirer then ran the story of Ted’s alleged affairs, the first thing Ted does is kick the cat, i.e., Trump, who had nothing whatsoever to do with the story or it’s publication.

That’s the timeline, and those are the reactions of both candidates to the events.

The point is, Trump did not accuse Ted with the ‘mistresses’ allegations. National Enquirer did. Ted then attacks Donald Trump for what someone else published, which is simply shooting at the wrong target.
