Sen. Ted Cruz on Sunday accused front-runner Donald Trump of owing $480 million, noting "it could be billions."
Appearing on "Fox News Sunday" the Texas senator told host Chris Wallace that his own loans to run for senate were disclosed and also accused Trump of owing millions.
"If you look at his financial disclosure, he owes at least $480 million dollars right now, and it could be billions," Cruz told Wallace.
"He knows this loan story is completely nonsense," Cruz said. "It's also the height of hutzpah - for someone who owes hundreds of millions of dollars if not billions of dollars, to attack Heidi and me because we put our life savings into running for senate. And the statement that the loans weren't disclosed, he knows is flat out false. The loans were disclosed."
Wallace then pressed Cruz to explain what Trump owes.
"If you look at his financial disclosure, he owes at least $480 million dollars right now and it could be billions," Cruz told Wallace. "And by the way with loans when Heidi and I take loans, we pay them back."
"Donald's declared bankruptcy four times, and so for him to sit there owing hundreds of millions or billions or who knows, and to criticize Heidi and me for putting our entire net worth into the campaign is astonishing," Cruz said. "It is not honest, especially because the loans were disclosed, they were publicly disclosed at the time."
No, as in the difference between what Trump said and what he didn't.
How about you vet the candidate before you start mainlining the kool-aid?
My gosh, you people are blind.
And many of you Cruz are nasty critters
I bet if I went back and vetted you on Sarah Palin in 2011 id find you acted the same
Bet her endorsement of Trump hurt
It’s the nature of Free Republic for being
Cause it’s the nature of many who live here
Like the knitting ladies in Tale of Two Cities
Hey
Today is good day
Either of my preferred candidates wins
Nasty? Trump is the epitome of nasty.
Vet me all you want on this site. I mostly read it. I very rarely comment.
Palin’s endorsement doesn’t mean squat to me; neither does Beck’s. But you just keep allowing those pundits to choose your candidate.
I’ve said it a million times and I will say it until election day: Me and mine will stay home if Trump is the nominee.
Now go search the web - I am not alone by a long shot.
Fair enough
Stay home
That’ll show em
Trump’s crowds indicate to me your protest won’t mean a whole lot
I like Palin but Beck is a race baiting south hating loon
He did Ted no favors
Btw
I’d be delighted to support Cruz and did first actually
I had my own Cruz bumpersticker made in late 2012
I just like Trump better by a small margin
But for u it’s I guess Cruz or a vote for Hillarnie
You don’t get it, do you?
Voting for Trump is a vote for the Dems.
You’re a chick
I just looked
Too funny
You have something against women?
I was saying when he gave 1 million to the VETS the other day that it was like you or I giving $100 bucks, and the Trumpsters tried to crucify me. I managed to escape.... but are you saying I was likely right?
lol
It depends
I cannot help it if you had a rotten mother, wife or girlfriend. Misogynistic is no way to go through life. Go find another woman to insult. Doesn’t work on me.
Oh yes
Happy girl aren’t you honey?
You’ve been nasty unprovoked from jump street
And you’re posting history is proof enough
But who knows who or what you are
You can have last word
I realize it’s a must
Btw
Conservatives don’t use the liberal talking point word misogyny
