Have you heard the latest conspiracy? Apparently someone released the following video of Ted Cruz handing someone a few coins and an unknown amount of currency.
Ted Cruz “bribe” of delegate video is actually a staffer |

Once that video went viral, the anti-Cruz people were going nuts, claiming that Ted Cruz was caught paying off a delegate or something. There’s just one big problem with that theory though. The man Cruz handed the money too isn’t a delegate. He is Bruce Redden and a Cruz staffer. The “unknown” amount of money in the video turned out to be a whopping $5, a donation from someone in the crowd.
Trump himself doesn’t deserve any blame in this, as he didn’t start the stupid rumor.
