Responding to a National Enquirer story alleging he had multiple extramarital affairs, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz on Friday blamed the report on Donald Trump and "his henchmen."
Cruz said the report was untrue.
He called Trump "a rat" and said there is no level to which he won't stoop.
"The question that people are asking is how low will Donald go," Cruz said.
Cruz accused Trump of being a coward who has problems with "strong women."
Cruz was in Oshkosh Friday morning at Lakeside Plastics for a campaign stop.
Later speaking to reporters, he went on the attack against Trump and his shoot-from-the-hip style.
"It will not be sufficient for a president. He will send tweets at Putin," Cruz said.

Yup.
Cruz has given it legitimacy by attention.
I said eailer, he loses either way.
He decided to lose via the slow method.
This is yet more proof that for the smartest guy in the room, Ted Cruz sure is capable of being the biggest idiot in the race.
By accusing Trump, he has now given Trump carte blanche to talk about this in the media, so the major networks MUST report on it. He can even do it on the Sunday shows now!!
Ted, you’ve botched yet another one and this one will be your last.
Now trumpfolx/henchmen will have to spend their Easter cooking up other ways to hang Cruz. Funny, because they personally don’t belive Ted would have 5 affairs during the campaign but are infuriated FR wouldn’t go out on a limb and propagate the Enquirer’s/Trump’s hitjob. Kudos, FR mods!
Sounds like a non-denial, denial to me.
Wait - what did Cruz do?
Gloria Allred to the rescue...
If the lawyer for Scott Peterson’s mistress turns up then something is real...
Katrina Pierson was not named by the NE story - people think it is her based on a blanked out picture. So all she is saying is that she was not one of the Mistresses.
I would like someone to quote his exact words denying the story. Was it a flat out denial, or was it phrased in a way to subject it to Clintonian parsing?
Assuming it was a flat out denial, and the identified women are denying the truth of the story as well, it is now incumbent on those propagating the story to put up more direct evidence of the truth of the claims.
Sen. Goldman Cruz should KNOW that this began
with him, and his attacks through his PAC,
and that Cruz alone is responsible for where
he lies.
Cruz didn’t. It was a Super PAC.
“The NE doesn’t spill all their beans at once. They wait for denials then release the rest of the story.”
I hope the FBI is being just as clever with the leaks of its investigation of Hillary’s emails.
Nonsense, Trump says I had nothing to do with your personal issues or with the reputable reporting of this National Enquirer story.
Trump is very tight with the owner. I’m not surprised that the Clintons are friends as well. They all hang in the same circles. http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2015/10/trumps-alliance-with-the-national-enquirer.html
Wining a law suit isn’t as important as wining the election.
:The Enquirer has been openly supporting Donald Trump. So I take this with a tablespoon of salt grains.’”
Insanity. That a publication as big as N.E. with as much to lose as N.E. would open themselves up to such a huge liability suit but several people just because their CEO has some history with Trump? You really believe some CEO is going to be stupid enough to outright try to sell a lie involving MULTIPLE people just to ‘help’ Trump? TRUMP has been the butt of many N.E. articles and not complimentary ones.
Your premise makes no sense.
UK SUN reported on it today...if you go to Drudge and go down to UK and click on UK SUN, it will come up there...
Cruz should never allowed his campaign to run the picture of Melania.
“Gloria Allred to the rescue...
If the lawyer for Scott Peterson’s mistress turns up then something is real...”
Or if someone drags a $1,000 bill through a TV studio! Just a higher level of trailer trash here.
