| | | Here are some EXACT quotes. Does not sound so HORRIBLE to me? I want to hear the audio next, to see if Trump brought this up or the rabid press asked the questions. Do you know which happened?

“I don’t know his father. I met him once. I think he’s a lovely guy,” Trump said the day after accepting the presidential nomination in Cleveland. “All I did is point out the fact that on the cover of the National Enquirer there was a picture of him and crazy Lee Harvey Oswald having breakfast.”
In May, the National Enquirer published a story claiming that Rafael Cruz was pictured with Oswald in 1963. Trump cited the story the day of the Indiana primary, suggesting Cruz’s father was linked to Kennedy’s assassination.
“Did anybody ever deny it was the father?” Trump said Friday. “They’re not saying, ‘Oh, that wasn’t my father.’ That’s a little hard to do. It looks like him.”
Trump went onto defend a tweet that included an unflattering photo of Cruz’s wife, Heidi, saying that Cruz’s team started the feud by running a racy photo of his wife in an ad in Utah.
The ad, which included Melania Trump’s cover in GQ magazine, was published by a PAC unaffiliated with Cruz’s campaign.
“Folks, a lot of us are political people,” Trump said. “We’re not babies. His people are on the PAC.”
