Ted Cruz's campaign produced and released this attack ad overnight, after Donald Trump came out in favor of allowing transgender people to use the bathroom of their choice, rather than the bathroom corresponding to their birth. The Cruz campaign has seized on this issue as a clear indicator that Donald Trump is "not a conservative."
"Leave it the way it is," Trump said. "There have been very few problems."
"Should a grown man pretending to be a woman be allowed to use the women's restroom?" asks the Cruz campaign, calling the bathroom issue "PC Nonsense that is destroying America."
"North Carolina, what they're going through with all the business that's leaving, all of the strife -- and this is on both sides. Leave it the way it is," Trump said at a town hall on NBC's 'Today Show' Thursday. "People go, they use the bathroom that they feel is appropriate."
Cruz has launched an extended media attack campaign against Trump on this issue, doing interviews with his two biggest media backers -- Glenn Beck and Mark Levin -- about the transgender issue Thursday.

I will gladly vote for Trump or any other person who is running against the hildbeast!
“Men and women express their sexual attraction differently. A man claiming to be a woman who is attracted to women is not a lesbian with male parts. Wide stances, glory holes and predation dont happen in womens bathrooms from lesbians.”
I don’t know very much about that. I do know I’ve never seen anyone dressed as a woman sitting in a urinal.
You will vote for Trump but many Cruz supporters here say they won’t. And they do hate Trump.
“Should a grown man pretending to be a woman be allowed to use the women’s restroom?” asks the Cruz
Lyin’ Ted must have just put the Bible down when he said that. Trump specified transgenders, not men pretending to be women. Transgenders are of both sexes.
So fallacious personal ad hominem attacks are fair? Have I done that to you?? No I haven’t.
Call 911.
I’m not sure anymore. That Jenner dude has never had any kind of surgery at all as far as I know and he is the poster thing for “transgender” and he’s just a dude in drag.
It’s impossible to keep up with this nonsense.
...sounding like a full-blown Libtart!
How about answering the questions??
What about little girls in the bathroom with a butch lez??
If a transgender man dressed as a woman used a womans bathroom who would know? He have to pee in the sink!
If a transgender woman dressed as a man used a mens bathroom who would know? They couldnt use the urinal.
So how would they be identified?
Now Levin is teaming up with a bloke like Beck?
GB is a class-A nutjob.
What’s next Mark - a week of fasting with Glenn?
Well you are right they would not be identified. If a guy is dressed like a woman with makeup and hairdo and goes in the stall and closes the door nobody is going to know anything. This stuff has been around for 40 years that I know of and it has not caused a huge problem that needs a bunch of laws passed. That is all Trump is saying and I agree. I can’t remember the last time I saw anybody in a ladies room that didn’t look like they belonged there.
If the Cruz campaign runs this ad in any state remaining on the menu, except maybe IN, he'll suffer greatly for it.
I don't even think it will play well in MT, much less in CA, OR, WA or any of the remaining eastern states.
I assume females who claim to be males go in a stall when they use the men’s room?
In any case men and women ARE NOT THE SAME. And yes, you are completely correct about the men who claim to be women who look like the pics you have been posting (the last ones never show up for me.) They come and go, with no one the wiser.
What about the ones that look like Bruce Jenner, who still digs chicks, or worse? Why should the women who are uncomfortable with men who claim to be women have to put up with it? Why should there be laws stopping business from making a business decision to make their women customers feel more comfortable? Hey if Trump wants to let Jenner use any bathroom he wants in his building, fine. The girls that care can go somewhere else.

You are twisting yourself in knots personally attacking me instead of answering simple questions! LOL!
Why do FR Cruzers come onto Free Republic, and why do they advocate for the end of sovereignty for the USA? Why do they support crippling and destroying U.S. exports, while sending hundreds of billions of dollars a year to China and Mexico et al, not to mention jobs by the hundreds of thousands?
Why do they want total amnesty, why do they wish to resettle muslims by the hundreds of thousands into the US heartland? Why would the wish to DISSOLVE U.S. borders? Why would they support the North American Union, TPP and TPA? Why would they support a wide open border on our southern flank?
Why would they line up with the GLOBALISTS and the elite and the Washington Oligarchy? Why would the support millions more immigrants taking our jobs, while the remainder of jobs are being offshored?
And why would they DO that on FREE REPUBLIC? It's scary. They are co-opting Free Republic in their effort to dismantle the USA as we know it and make it a third world country. Jim Robinson, a very good hearted man, something I know from personal experience and from reading his words here for 18 years, is being targeted by Globalists and Elites, using their useful idiots, and in a cause that has been defeated (Cruzism) and in a decisive and humiliating fashion.
Are they planning to TAKE OVER FR permanently and make it a GLOBALIST blog? JR may need to seriously consider purging these vermin, because I believe, now that Cruz has been soundly beaten like the Canadian dog he is, they plan on STAYING and making FR a GLOBALIST MOUTHPIECE.
I look at it like this.
If trump wants to let Bruce Gender use whichever bathroom he prefers in Trump Towers, fine. But in truth it’s the women in that bathroom that will have the final say on it. They will either let him in or run him out.
If North Carolina wants to pass a law restricting their bathrooms to born gender, fine, it is their state, their law makers are elected, they can run things how they see fit.
If another state wants to open up bathrooms to identified gender, fine, same deal, elected law makers can run things how they see fit.
But again, it’s the people in the bathrooms that are going to have the final say.
If someone walks in and starts creeping people out, then they are going to have to deal with that response right then.
Laws aren’t going to change the way people behave naturally one way or the other.
Some people in one restroom might be fine with person A coming in, some people in another restroom may well object to person B coming in.
And I don’t see that changing.
This group will have the nickname: Ted's BROWN Shirts.
“What about the ones that look like Bruce Jenner, who still digs chicks, or worse? “
I’ve already asked; what about real women who have “man hands” and look like Jenner - are other women supposed to call 911 whenever they see a woman like that in a woman’s bathroom??
And I can see that if this woman walks into the men’s room with the intent of using it, I am going to have to let her, otherwise I’m probably going to get hurt real bad :O
