Ted Cruz admitted he hits defenseless children?

ottnott · January 9, 2016, 4:44pm

Creep.

home_invader · January 9, 2016, 4:47pm

he’s a top, harvard educated lawyer and he can’t figure out how to manipulate a 5 year old without violence?

sysprog · January 9, 2016, 4:50pm

Ah yes…no sexism HERE…

mantan · January 9, 2016, 4:50pm

When she turns 6 he should start carpet bombing…

jcblues · January 9, 2016, 4:52pm

probably not the only thing he spanks…

mattinpa · January 9, 2016, 4:52pm

If people in the Cruz household got spanked for lying, Ted would have been spanked all the damn way in half long ago.

The Truth About Lying

Helping your child develop morality and responsibility for his actions over the long haul is the goal. While lying is a normal aspect of growing up, that does not mean it should be dismissed. Here are some strategies that you can use to help your child develop a better understanding of truthfulness:

• Model the behavior you expect to see in your child.
This sounds obvious, but it involves monitoring when and how you lie — not an easy task. If we want to foster a trusting, self-regulating child
who cares about his own welfare and that of others, we have to do it
the hard way: by being trusting, self-regulating, and respectful adults.

There are 5 bullet points, but Cruz is in trouble right out of the gate.

You are one creepy, dog-whistling, half-cunning asshole, Cruz

antisachetdethe · January 9, 2016, 4:56pm

Probably faps afterwards.

The very FIRST thing I thought of, “Would he say that to a male candidate?” Of course, he’d say yes. I cannot, in any situation, see him saying that to a another guy. It not only brings up the idea of domination but also turning the other candidate into a child like figure.

Let’s publicly humiliate my 5-year old who I’m sure will grow up to be aghast at this. As if having grown up in the Cruz family with crazy dad and even battier granddad wasn’t enough of a scar.

Ted Cruz certainly makes a habit of exploiting his children for the sake of boosting his campaign. Now, we have an admission of corporal punishment. Cruz is a creep.

sherlock1 · January 9, 2016, 5:06pm

Cubanadiamurrikan’ Cruz is a child abuser at home! Not surprised.

"If either of you two little creeps mess this up for Daddy, it’s back in the dark ‘God’s dark redemption closet’ for a 3-hour prayer session asking for forgiveness …before your holy whipping. You will learn obedience, submissiveness and how to act on command."

jcblues · January 9, 2016, 5:07pm

he was incensed when the NYT showed his daughters as monkeys on leashes yet he puts one of them out as his spank monkey…

a shallow and deeply twisted mind

dwolf · January 9, 2016, 5:08pm

But would he spank Trump’s daughter? Does Trump spank his daughter? Will this become an issue?

538liberal · January 9, 2016, 5:13pm

Trump would love to spank his daughter.

antisachetdethe · January 9, 2016, 5:14pm

Drumpf probably fanaticizes about Ivanka spanking him.

538liberal · January 9, 2016, 5:15pm

He has some good people to do that. Good people.
