Sen. Ted Cruz told Bloomberg that Sen. John McCain’s questioning his eligibility for the presidency is his way of secretly trying to boost Marco Rubio’s chances at the Republican nomination.
Said Cruz: “I think it is no surprise to anybody that John McCain is going to be supporting Marco Rubio in this election. It’s no surprise at all that he’s trying to do what he can to help the candidate that he’s favoring who he thinks shares policy positions with him.”
