'I'm not confident which pedal I'd push': Ted Cruz jokes with Jimmy Kimmel about RUNNING OVER Trump, admit his childhood acting dreams and clashes with host about patrols Muslim neighborhoods

Texas Senator made the joke after an April Fools' Day prank idea was aired He also discussed Obamacare on Jimmy Kimmel Live, calling it a 'disaster' Cruz spoke about Muslim patrols as a way to protect US from radicalization Kimmel agreed to disagree with Republican presidential candidate's views The idea for the prank was to stick pictures of the GOP hopeful to the reverse cameras of cars so people would think they are about to back into him.

Discussing the trick, Cruz joked: 'If I were in my car getting ready to reverse and saw Donald in the back-up camera, I'm not confident which pedal I'd push.'

Cruz brought up the prank after being asked by Kimmel who he liked the least: Trump or President Obama.

'Look, I dislike Obama's policies more, but Donald is a unique individual,' said Cruz to the ABC host. Ted Cruz agreed to disagree with Jimmy Kimmel on opinions regarding Obamacare and Muslim patrols during an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live +5

Kimmel then joked about the public perception of Cruz as an unpopular man amongst his colleagues.

He said that perversely, his strategy in this race seemed to be hanging around until voters and his political peers realized they hated all the other candidates more than him.

Kimmel said that this has already happened with Senator Lindsey Graham, who has reluctantly endorsed Cruz because he can't bear to support Trump.

Clearly, no one has schooled Teddy-boy on the first rule of holes.

That is pretty close to the edge of a comment that would get you an official visit from Secret Service.
Cruz is spending way too much time with Beck.

I’m a Trumper, but his is clearly a joke. Fine, no problem . . . EXCEPT . . .

on Twitter the GOPe/NRO blogger morons went nuts when Trump said he could “shoot someone on 5th avenue” and his supporters wouldn’t leave him. That was a joke. But the morons went absolutely crazy, and talked about the “culture of violence” with Trump.

Sauce for the goose . . . .

What has happened to Cruz? Is this a hatred for Trump or is Cruz trying to sabotage his own campaign. Something is strange.

“Ted yuks it up, trying to deflect from the mistress bomb.”

Is that all you guys are clinging to? There isn’t any mistress bomb! I know all you Trump guys have been praying for one, one that would show that Cruz is just as trashy as your guy, but you can keep on waiting!

Cruz encourages those who get violent against Trump supporters by justifying their cause. Now he encourages violence against Trump by saying this hateful thing...but, somehow Trump is the one who incites violence? Insanity rules...literally.

Not funny in the least. He also blamed Trump in a FoxNews Sunday show for white racist robo-calls. This was just before all the anti-Trump disruptors came out. He is trying to stir up the crazies to hurt Trump.
