For me as well. Cruz should never, ever have fallen for that Democrat propaganda setup, and my thought was, if he fell for that, what else will he fall for? He's smarter than that. Pressures of the campaign, I suppose.
Cruz didn’t fall for the Democrat propaganda, he tried to use it to undermine Trump.
This paled in comparison to when Cruz blamed Trump for leftist thugs brutalizing Trump supporters in that canceled rally in Chicago.
