About that crazy Trump attack on Cruz saying his father was linked to Oswald

A smart pundit on MSNBC last night had a plausible explanation for Trumps crazy attack referencing a tabloid journalism conspiracy theory.

It was a way to send out a message that Cruz is of Cuban heritage.

That Trump guy, sort of an evil genius there.

One where Cruz had 5 mistresses.affairs whateverever, some allusion to his wife, and the assassination story . Wonder what magic he will make the public look at for the GE? Because it is obvious from the Cruz trial run that people and media run with Trump's surrogate tabloid attacks so they will be looking and commenting.
That be it Sanders or Clinton
