Ted Cruz laid into Donald Trump with his most personal and toughest criticism since the GOP presidential campaign began, calling him a "pathological liar" on Tuesday who doesn't understand the difference between the truth and lies.
Cruz prefaced his comments by saying that for the first time, he wanted to say exactly what he thought of Trump after the front-runner suggested Cruz's father might have had something to do with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
The Texas senator accused Trump of being both disingenuine and self-aggrandizing, saying Trump was a "narcissist" at a level "I don't think this country has ever seen." "Donald Trump is such a narcissist that Barack Obama looks at him and says, 'Dude, what's your problem?' " Cruz said.
Whatever lie hes telling, in that minute he believes it, Cruz added. "But the man is utterly amoral. Morality does not exist for him.
-SNIP-
Its why he went after Heidi directly, attacked her and smeared her," Cruz said. "Heidi isnt pretty enough for him. ... Donald is a bully. ... Bullies dont come from strength, they come from weakness. ... Theres a reason Donald builds giant buildings and puts his name on them everywhere he goes."
"Donald has a real problem with women," Cruz continued.
He then noted that Trump defended boxer Mike Tyson, who was convicted in Indiana on rape charges, and told Trump's supporters they should not believe their favored candidate.
"Donald is cynically exploiting that anger, and Donald is lying to his supporters," he said. He went on to insist Trump would betray his them by not doing what he promises, including his pledge to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Cruz's all-out assault suggested his campaign might be nearing its breaking point.

You’re right...the notion that Ted Cruz is any kind of threat worth worrying about is laughable.
I won't have to. The Clintons are sitting on all sorts of dirt but they aren't going to use it until they feel it is needed (or did the GWB election eve DWI story or the Marc Foley diddles congressional pages story teach you anything?).
Plus, the Clintons won't be publishing it in the National Enquirer. They'll be publishing it in the New York Times and The Washington Post and Twitterbombing it everywhere.
It won't matter if it is true or not, just like garbage about Cruz didn't matter to Trump whether it was true or not. It will be out there in the "mainstream" media and they will hound Donald with it until November. And if Trump's father is dead and can't refute any of it, so much the better for the Clintons.
YOU need a ZOT
So you’re admitting you can’t refute the truth of what I just said.
And since you can’t refute it, you want to ban the messenger.
Cruz is Canadian. Trumps it all. Give me Jeff Sessions for VP in an ideal world. Unfortunately, it ain’t.
There’s nothing to refute since all you’re doing is posting idle speculation.
Concern trolling some might call it.
