Ted Cruz Criticizes Donald Trump for Attacks on Cruz’s Wife

HeadlineMar 25, 2016

Meanwhile, Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz has warned contender Donald Trump to cease his increasing insults of Cruz’s wife, Heidi. Trump has been threatening to “spill the beans” about Heidi Cruz, an investment manager at Goldman Sachs. In response, Ted Cruz said at a news conference Wednesday that Trump has an “issue with women” and that he should stay away from his wife.

Sen. Ted Cruz: “Donald does seem to have an issue with women. Donald doesn’t like strong women. Strong women scare Donald. … It’s not easy to tick me off. I don’t get angry often. But you mess with my wife, you mess with my kids, that’ll do it every time. Donald, you’re a sniveling coward, and leave Heidi the hell alone.”
