As news spread of Donald Trump's intention to boycott the Republican debate this Thursday, Ted Cruz's national press secretary tweeted out that the Texas senator wished to challenge the GOP frontrunner to a "mano a mano."

Cruz made the remarks to Mark Levin on his radio show Tuesday night. "If Donald is afraid of Megyn Kelly," Cruz said, "I would like to invite him... to participate in a one-on-one debate, between me and Donald, mano a mano."

Cruz floated Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh as possible moderators -- but he also said he'd be willing to take him on with no moderator at all, should Trump prove to be afraid of all those people too.

I wish physical appearances and family members were off limits. I didn't like it when Rand Paul called Trump an orange-faced windbag either.

Rand Paul will never be President, so it's immaterial what he says.

I think it’s safe to say that Trump is not going to select Cruz for his VP....... or for any other job for that matter.

Doesn’t Cruz know that “mano a mano” means “hand to hand”?

Trump may be an amoral adulterer; but hey, he’s YOUR amoral adulterer. Good for you!

You all are so worried and scared, you’re grasping at anything.

Answer one simple question. Is Trump or is Trump not an adulterer?
