Tonight's Republican debate opened with Megyn Kelly asking about Donald Trump's absence. After thanking Iowans for their hospitality, Sen. Cruz proceeded to call his competitors "stupid, fat, and ugly." Then, turning to Dr. Carson, Cruz said, "And Ben, you're a terrible surgeon."

I know this is going to be distorted to the extreme, but folks it’s called a JOKE.
Stick to the constitution Ted, your comedy routine is lacking.
That's when all the flys flew out.
Cruz has to put words in other people’s mouths
to fabricate his point
Just as funny as the “shoot someone” joke, and for the same reasons. All good humor is planted with the seed of truth.
I agree with your remark. It was a JOKE, people. This is the trouble with the Dem side: No sense of humor. Let’s not be guilty of that. I read the remark in full context, and it was funny. And I like DT as well. SO. Let’s not distort, shall we?
You really need to get a life, newbie.

Nasty...I thought.
I just finished watching the Trump veterans event - Cruz ought to be ashamed for such a pathetic tasteless statement.
once again Cruz unites the GOP contenders on stage by mocking the Clinton Donor
Ted, What works for Donald doesn't work for you.

It was a very nasty thing for Cruz to say. What a weasel.
He needs to learn how to win friends and influence people.
Cruz is very witty ... best part is , he helped turn Trump into a sympathetic figure ...thanks Ted !
Cruz is tone deaf to humor.
The quote actually started with Cruz saying “I’m a maniac”, which Trump said. I believe Trump also took a shot at Carson and his professional career. The rest of the comments are completely plausible based on Trump’s record of insulting people.
Thanks for the cordial reply. However, it’s starting to look like you’ll be in the minority. The nuts are starting to fall from the tree.
