During Wednesday night’s live broadcast of the Cruz family Town Hall on CNN, one of the daughters of Texas Senator Ted Cruz seems to have let it slip that there is video of her father in a bizarre wardrobe choice that his PR team is almost certainly tracking down as we speak.
The Republican candidate for President and his wife Heidi were joined by their two daughters on stage with Anderson Cooper during a late portion of the broadcast. In keeping with the Town Halls this week, which were often focused on more personal elements of the candidates and their families, Cruz discussed a recent Daddy-Daughter picnic at school. To demonstrate some of the everyday goofiness in his role as Father in Chief, Cruz relayed a harmless story of fatherly dress-up.
“She got to dress up Daddy in a pink boa and these like, big goofy-looking underwear…” explained the Texas Senator.

Well... if Rubio joins Cruz on a ticket...
maybe they could campaign in drag.
Well, that ought to win him the Minnesota crowd. They elected someone as governor for that very reason.
I’m having visions of new Tweets emanating from Manhattan & Mar-a-Lago!
The girls are adorable. But kids gonna be kids.
As a Trump supporter, I’ve got to say this is a proverbial ‘nothing sandwich’. BFD.
Kids say the darnedest things...
Will the Cruz Crusade suddenly realize that cross dressing is not so bad after all?
Oh good grief, it was a school event where the kid got to dress up the dad in a silly outfit.
Donald Trump with his orange spray tan face, raccoon eyes and ridiculous hair looks like a clown every single day, but I don’t see that many people making an issue of it.
Cool. Another anti-Cruz circle jerk!
I am old. My father would have never even considered this, nor would I have thought he would. A man of few words and dry wit. An independent thinker, too.
I played “Pretty, Pretty Princess” with my daughter probably 100 times, because she loved it. This actually humanizes the guy a bit.
Really.....And people wonder why many Trumpophiles are considered certifiable.
Not surprised by the comments by Trump supporters. The context is that this was at a father-daughter school picnic. Good grief.
I agree. There’s much more to ask about him than this. As a grandfather, I’ve accommodated some requests from my grand daughters. Nothing like this but I won’t fault him if this was for his daughters.
I’d much rather he give an explanation as to why it was necessary to have iCarly give an answer for him up on stage when the reporter asked him to answer whether he’d ever cheated on his wife.
Bingo.

Having girls I can understand the dress up but the underwear is concerning. I would hope he doesn’t walk around in underwear in front of the girls. Couldn’t he use shorts?
Exactly right.
What Cruz needs to do is to pull his head out of default ‘lawyer-speak’ and understand that when he dodges questions about his fidelity to his wife, and then allows someone like iSnarly to step in front of him to intercept such a question, that it only creates *more* questions. Why would he need to hide behind someone else on such a simple matter?
Like Nixon learned too late, it wasn’t the offense, it was the resulting cover up.
A non-story with a desperate headine.
My friend who is a 5th degree black belt and in great shape came in to the dojo one day with his toe nails painted. When asked about it ... he said my 5 year old daughter and I were playing. Anyone have a problem with that ? No one said a word ... and so should be the same with this nothing burger from the hate Cruz crowd
