Cruz really said that? What was the exact statement and context? I’m so sick of political half-truths I’m seriously considering not voting ever again.

Cruz was being asked about all the crazy tweets coming out of Trump today

When asked if he thought Trump was being "funny" Cruz claimed, "I think they're very funny. I think Donald, I wake up every day and laugh at the latest thing Donald has Tweeted because he's losing it. Look, we need a commander in chief, not a Twitterer in chief."

"We need someone with judgment and the temperament to keep this country safe. I don't know anyone who would be comfortable with someone who behaves this way having his finger on the button," Cruz claimed. "I mean, we're liable to wake up one morning and Donald, if he were president would have nuked Denmark. That's not the temperament of a leader to keep this country safe."

BTW, I agree with Cruz. The Trump the night of the Iowa caucus had my attention again because it looked like he was going to settle down and be serious.......then off he goes again on ridiculous rants.

I heard the comment. Cruz used that intentionally exaggerated example to accentuate the point that Trump should not be allowed near the nuke codes.

It was a joke. He was making fun of The Crybaby's latest tweets. He referred to them at Trumpertantrums and said his little girls are more mature. He was mocking the buffoonery that is Trump.

All I can say if the Cruz crowd thinks this helps Cruz’s saintly Christian image, they are mistaken.
