TEXAS senator Ted Cruz is embroiled in a sex scandal befitting the bizarre nature of the current the Republican race for the presidential nomination.
An angry Cruz has accused Donald Trump and his henchmen of feeding the National Enquirer a salacious story claiming the conservative Christian politician has had extramarital affairs with five different women.
This National Enquirer story is garbage. It is complete and utter lies, Cruz snapped after a campaign stop in Oshkosh, Wisconsin on Friday.
It is a tabloid smear, and it is a smear that has come from Donald Trump and his henchmen.
The supermarket tabloid did not identify them by name, but published pixelated headshots of the women with black bars across their eyes.
The women were described as a hooker, a teacher, and co-workers.
Cruz also took to Facebook this morning to slam the allegations.
These smears are completely false, theyre offensive to Heidi and me, theyre offensive to our daughters, and theyre offensive to everyone Donald continues to personally attack, he posted.
Donald Trumps consistently disgraceful behaviour is beneath the office we are seeking and we are not going to follow.
Despite his efforts the squash the story, the hashtag #CruzSexScandal has been the top trending hashtag on Twitter this morning, adding to the candidates woes.

I can’t believe there are people on here who are accusing Ted Cruz of cheating with 5 women, based on a stupid “Enquirer” article! I get that they don’t like T. Cruz, but basing a sex scandal article on an “Enquirer” article, and expecting people to believe it really out of line, to me! Good heavens!
I can.
But I'd have a hard time voting for one who publicly lied about it after being publicly caught.
Let's see the story play out. It may or may not be something.
Then stop !!! We should be uniting we are NOT the freakin enemy the beast is ...how many times do we need to be clear about that. Seems nobody’s listening because we’re too busy slitting each others throats. I’ll continue to raise my voice until people come to their senses!! We are not the enemy and we do Jim a disservice by making FR an “establishment” battle field!
That's Where magazine, for the unnecessarily dirty-minded...
Two despicable hypocrites.
Good grief. You’re embarassing yourself.
feckoff
Cruz and his BFF Romney already tried the tax thing on Trump.
Sad
Jesus wept
“Its got legs!”
Like a millipede!
John Edwards certainly agrees with you.
You know what I’m not going to fall into your freaking trap!! I’m just going to contact Jim!! This us getting outta hand!!
Don’t sell yourselves short, there are more than two Trump fans around here.
You do know that Trump was not behind this story, right?
Quit blaming him for what Cruz and others have done.
If all that's true I'd agree Cruz is not out of line by accusing Trump.
BUT...do you have sources/links for those assertions?
I just got home and I a DEFINITELY not up to speed on all the dynamics.
As a top lawyer, Cruz surely realizes that NE wouldn’t stick their neck out like they have unless they have provable evidence against him. Another libel suit against Gawker? recently cost them $100 Million. NE is surely aware of their liability if this article is false.
And in light of that reality, the best Cruz can come up with is to blame Trump for a dirty trick? Say it ain’t so! The debate king can merely mumble an accusation against someone else?
This doesn’t look good.
I would expect a world class debater, smartest attorney to ever come out of Harvard, to rear up, become righteously indignant, and promise to sue NE out of existence. And certainly not just give a wimpy pass-the-buck criticism of a political opponent. Trump didn’t publish the article. NE did! Where’s the lawsuit?!
Is adultry a big issue for you?
Cant vote for an adulterer?
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Not when you combine it with wrapping yourself in the Bible.
On top of earning over $5 million dollars and neither Ted or Heidi gave a penny to their church.
And then you have this from this complete fraud. What kind of man could actually be part of this charade????
