“Lyin’ Ted Cruz just used a picture of Melania from a G.Q. shoot in his ad. Be careful, Lyin’ Ted, or I will spill the beans on your wife!”.

Heidi Cruz is a senior executive for Goldman Sachs, and took a leave from work in order to help her husband’s campaign.
“We’re going to continue to focus on our positive, optimistic message” coming off an “incredible win in Utah”, she said. “You can act like a hillbilly all you want, you’re one of them”.
