Just as the liberal media gleefully did with Marco Rubio, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow and Nicolle Wallace blasted Republican Senator Ted Cruz (Tex.) early Tuesday night for simply standing up to Donald Trump and denouncing his promotion of an unsubstantiated National Enquirer story alleging Cruz’s father Rafael may have been a part of the plot to kill then-President John F. Kennedy in 1963.

In yet another showcase of how bizarre the election season has been, Cruz supporters found themselves siding with Hardball host Chris Matthews as he called out Trump and ruled that his allegations illustrated “an irreverence that cuts to the bone of his claim to be a legitimate candidate for head of state of this country.”
