Donald Trump spoke this morning less than 12 hours after accepting the GOP nomination, and he spent a good deal of time addressing the Ted Cruz controversy and riffing about the Texas senator’s convention speech and much more:
Trump now railing on Cruz; "Somebody got booed outside of the place by thousands and thousands of people"

Trump on Cruz: "Maybe I’ll set up a super PAC if he decides to run. Are you allowed to set up a super PAC Mike as president?"
— Zeke Miller (@ZekeJMiller) July 22, 2016
Trump: “I think Heidi Cruz is a great person. I think it’s the best thing he’s got going with his kids”
— Zeke Miller (@ZekeJMiller) July 22, 2016

"Honestly, he (Cruz) may have ruined his political career. I feel so bad for him." — Trump
Methinks he's not over it.

Trump also revisited the issue of linking of Ted Cruz’s father to Lee Harvey Oswald:
Trump: I know nothing abt his father I know nothing abt Lee Harvey Oswald, but there was a picture on the frontpage of the National Enquirer

Trump right now is going back to Cruz's father and Lee Harvey Oswald. "Has anybody ever denied that was his father" with Oswald?
