Honestly, this is just bad leadership. Cruz has no scruples about attacking people or being dishonest, but he won't take the fall for it.

The euphemia principle of leadership is: Any time you want to know why an organization is the way it is, go straight to the top. If the person at the top has integrity, so will his organization. If the person at the top does not have integrity, the organization won't either.

Does any of this compare with how unscrupulous Trump's entire campaign has been?

Would you like to give some examples? That might be good for a new thread.

A few paragraphs from the first link:

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz said Monday he’s fired campaign communications director Rick Tyler, after his top spokesman promoted a video that wrongly depicted Florida Sen. Marco Rubio as trash-talking the Bible.

The Texas senator announced that he's asked for the resignation at a press conference Monday afternoon.

“We are not a campaign that is going to question the faith of another candidate. Even if it was true, our campaign should not have sent it. That’s why I’ve asked for Rick Tyler’s resignation,” Cruz said. “The standards of conduct in this campaign have been made absolutely clear.”

Tyler originally had linked to a story showing a video of Rubio walking by a Cruz staffer and Cruz’s father Rafael, who were reading the Bible in a hotel lobby. The original subtitles on the video showed Rubio saying to the staffer, “Got a good book there, not many answers in it.”

My opinion: Trump's campaign is not so much unscrupulous (or maybe Trump is just living up to the expectations I had of him, having witnessed his behavior for over 30 years) but his policies are horrible.
