You can threatened to spill the beans about my wife all day long, and I won’t care, and my wife won’t care. Or maybe there are actually some beans to spill?

Even if the accusation was slanderous, you'd be foolish not to take the threat seriously. Those who have been slandered know how difficult it can be to refute the charges even if totally groundless. As the old saying goes: "A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to put its shoes on."

Maybe. But how is it an ‘insult’? An ‘insult’ enough that Cruz said today that that was why he didn’t endorse Trump.
