Cruz Calls Trump 'Serial Philanderer' and 'Pathological Liar' in Blistering Attack
Source: NBC News
Ted Cruz went on a blistering ramble against Donald Trump on Tuesday, delivering a list of stinging personal attacks that included calling the GOP frontrunner a "serial philanderer," "pathological liar" and a "narcissist."
The attacks came on the day of the Indiana primary and hours after Trump repeated a tabloid report tying Cruz's father, Rafael Cruz, to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
"This man is a pathological liar. He doesn't know the difference between truth and lies. He lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth," Cruz told reporters in Evansville, Indiana.

(12,882 posts)A tactic used to take down an opponent's surveillance plane was to fly above it and try to hook it with a chain that the aggressor had thrown over the side of his cockpit. In one incident - where the attacker managed to hook up, both aircraft crashed as a result of being chained together. That SO reminds me of these two buffoons grappling with one another! Let's hope their wreckage is also their funeral pyre!

Maybe Cruz should offer to spanky-spank Trump. They both might get something out of that.

(101,424 posts)Of course, in the movie, Biff uses the profits from his 27-story casino (the Trump Plaza Hotel, completed in 1984, is 37 floors, by the way) to help shake up the Republican Party, before eventually assuming political power himself, helping transform Hill Valley, California, into a lawless, dystopian wasteland, where hooliganism reigns, dissent is quashed, and wherein Biff encourages every citizen to call him Americas greatest living folk hero.
Yeah, says Gale. Thats what we were thinking about.
Of course, in Back to the Future Part II, Marty McFly and Doc Brown fix it all just in the nick of time. They save themselves and America from Donald Tr Biff Tannen.

(10,857 posts)In a 1997 interview with radio host Howard Stern that came to light in a Buzzfeed report NSFW content), the Republican presidential frontrunner compared being with several women in his younger years to war, a war in which he avoided service. Ive been so lucky in terms of that whole world. It is a dangerous world out there its scary, like Vietnam. Sort of like the Vietnam era. It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave solider, Trump said. The interview was on YouTube, but it has since been "removed by the user" according to the YouTube link.

I turned on the tv and Cruz was raving like a madman. Couldn't even figure out what he was talking about. Your link helped shed some light on it all. Cruz sounds desperate and crazy as a loon.
They just now flashed a message that he was attacking Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdock. Cruz honestly sounds like he going off the deep end.
Of course, he is right about Trump etc, but to rave on about it now at this late date is odd and unsettling.
Me thinks he is not a graceful looser!

(27,467 posts)Nobody seems to give a shit. Maybe if Cruz weren't such a douchebag it might matter. I'm convinced there is a chunk of support for Trump that is just anti Cruz.
Cruz was the first candidate to declare for President. He's had more time than anyone to get people to warm up to him. He failed.
These last minute hail Mary's aren't going to do it.

And also because he's a nut.
