While political observers have been saddened by the boorish, cringe-worthy antics and often dangerous slope of potential social strife which the Trump campaign have injected into mainstream GOP politics, this in no way, shape or form justifies the bottom feeding which Ted Cruz and his accolytes have often practised in 2016.<br />
What exactly is being achieved in the &#8216;Christian atmosphere&#8217; of Utah politics by slut-shaming Melania Trump. How and why does she become collateral damage in attempts to stuff the Trump campaign? Shame on Cruz. Shame on &#8216;elders&#8217; like Mitt Romney and all those who have provided this shadow impetus for &#8216;Make America Awesome&#8217; to create and perpetrate this shameful act. Not against the candidate, but essentially against his spouse and family. Ted Cruze should be called out for his equally lowdown guerrila political tactics. </span></span><br />

Ted Cruze should be called out for his equally low down political guerrila tactics</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size:small;">A conservative super PAC is trying to swing Utah voters against Donald Trump in tonight&#8217;s caucus by slut-shaming his wife Melania Trump.</span></h1>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">The ad, circulated on social media, shows the former model in a nude 2000 GQ photo shoot with the words: &#8216;Meet Melania Trump, your next First Lady. Or you could vote for Ted Cruz on Tuesday.&#8217;</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">Cruz, who has a precarious 50.1per cent polling average, needs to win a majority backing in order to take all 40 of Utah&#8217;s delegates.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">Republican strategist Liz Mair, who founded the super PAC Make America Awesome, told <a class="" href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/mckaycoppins/anti-trump-group-runs-facebook-ads-seeking-to-rally-mormon-v#.pipp92L1W" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Buzzfeed</a> the ads have been targeting Mormons, who have been shown in previous election results to dislike the Donald.</span></div>

<div class="imageCaption"><span style="font-size:small;"><b>Founder of the PAC, Republican Liz Mair, told Buzzfeed is expected to reach 10,000 Mormons a day. The religious group is known to dislike Trump and the PAC is trying to capitalize on Cruz&#8217;s edg</b></span></div>
</div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">While Trump is already expected to lose the Utah caucuses with just 11.9per cent of the vote, the PAC is hoping to tip the majority in favor of Ted Cruz, whose backing is on a knife&#8217;s edge with 50.1per cent polling average.</span></div>

<div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">If he fails to win the majority in Utah, the delegates will be split proportionally among the three candidates, diminishing Cruz&#8217;s chances to top Trump, who is projected to take Arizona.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">The Make America Awesome campaign also includes an ad highlighting Romney, a devout Mormon, and his public condemnation of Trump. </span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">A third ad quotes the Donald on his previous pro-choice stance, although the candidate has now flip-flopped in the abortion debate and declared himself pro-life.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">Mair told <a class="" style="font-weight:bold;" href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/mckaycoppins/anti-trump-group-runs-facebook-ads-seeking-to-rally-mormon-v#.pipp92L1W" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Buzzfeed</a> the online campaign, which is the group&#8217;s first endorsement of a specific candidate, is expected to reach 10,000 Mormons a day.</span></div>

<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">He added: &#8216;Mormons place a high premium on being nice, and Trump is not nice.&#8217; </span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">Make America Awesome is described on its website as &#8216;a SuperPAC dedicated to blocking and reversing Donald Trump’s political ascent. </span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">&#8216;We are an independent group, and are not authorized by any presidential candidate or candidate committee. Our focus is on using unconventional and cost-effective tactics, as opposed to stereotypical high-cost, limited-yield methods with the objective of providing maximum donor value.&#8217;</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">In reference to an anti-Trump ad they ran in January criticizing his business methods, the super PAC tweeted: &#8216;&#8230;If Trump’s opponents are serious about defeating him, they need to start running attacks that work with his voters now&#8230;&#8217;</span></div>

<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">Others defended Melania and pointed out the fact that she is fluent in five languages and studied architecture and design before working as a model and running her own businesses.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">Conservative news websites have also called the ad &#8216;despicable&#8217; while others have pointed out the PAC&#8217;s strategies could very well backfire.</span></div>
<div class="mol-para-with-font"><span style="font-size:small;">Both Democrats and Republicans are voting in the Utah caucus and Arizona primary tonight. The Democrats will be voting in the Idaho caucus.</span></div>
