Ironically, the anti-Trump ad in question will boost Trump’s support. It is seen as tasteless and makes Cruz look like a scumbag for running it (even though it was technically a super PAC that produced the ad.) For a chunk of Trump’s base they will rally behind the ad. Trump won’t need to spill the beans on anybody now, either. Everyone has now looked up Cruz’s wife as a result of the kerfuffle.
That seems to be the case with almost anything Trump-related. He’s developed quite the cult of personality, and any perceived attack on him is an attack on anyone who thinks like him, etc.
I remember ( very vaguely) a strong Democrat candidate in the early 1970’s, a senator named Muskie. Nixon people, and a newspaper editor, published some phony story about Muskie’s wife. On tv, Muskie looked to be weeping with anger, and that was the end of his nomination run.
These dirty tricks can work. And no one has to talk about domestic or foreign affairs problems.
But imagine Cruz or Trump having a tweet battle with some other world leader. (The example would unleash our teenagers on the net.)
“They were frightened of Muskey and look who got destroyed. They wanted to run against McGovern. Look who they’re running against.
They bugged, they followed people, false press leaks, fake letters… they canceled Democratic campaign rallies, they investigated Democratic
private lives, they planted spies, stole documents and on and on. Now don’t tell me you think this is all the work of little Don Segretti.”

Ted Cruz is a dirty politician.

Yea, but show me a picture of Cruz’s wife first. Perhaps Trump is making a point about her as compared to Melania!

Ted Cruz is insane. Donald is a buffoon. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/we-met-with-donald-trump-electing-him-is-still-a-radical-risk/2016/03/21/bfbe5498-ef90-11e5-85a6-2132cf446d0a_story.html

Looks like the Cruz ad came from a PAC run by a Liz Mair pr firm in Washington. Money is free speech.
