“I mean, look, Ted is a liar. This is why nobody likes him,” Trump concluded.

Just a few frames of video could turn this into an actual thing.

You’ve got a 60% disapproval rating, Donnie

Coming off his debate performance where his shifting positions on immigration became an issue along with the recent questions regarding his Christian faith, this “liar” meme could take off.

Trump couldn´t wait to see Cruz again, but he didn´t want to him to see his psoriasis.

If Trump wins the GOP nomination, he just gave democrats a really big win. He says he isn’t for universal healthcare. No GOP nominee will win on that slogan.

I wish he’d said “pants on fire,” too.

Trump has been for universal healthcare forever. He is against Obamacare because it’s not actually universal healthcare - and shouldn’t be called such because it leaves so many out. Trump was always opposed because it cements private companies running government healthcare.

You know, like most liberals.

Frustrating that it would not appear to suggest to our journalists to engage the question raised – I frankly don’t care what Donald said about Ted and vice versa, but would be interested in whether what Ted said about Donald has basis – that is, one of these guys is wrong (lying, perhaps, but certainly willfully incorrect). Okay, journos, do a little actual reporting: which one is it? And please don’t do that by googling some ‘fact checking’ site, only. More reporting, less transcribing, okay?

I know it’s bad, but seeing the front-running GOP candidate claim this openly in print about the boob in second place just gives me a warm, happy feeling!

Sez the Chump with 60% unfavorables.
Not a sliver of light seen between the levels of likability of these two grifters.
And just a pinpoint visible at the top-- from the bottom of the hole in which they reside.

The question I keep asking myself is what do you do if you are a Ted Cruz supporter and Trump wins the nomination? I know what I would do.

This is like the post-modern, post-fact epistomically closed deconstructionist version of Epimenides paradox. (“All cretins are liars” would be the easy shorthand, but I don’t want to politicize it.)

That seems disturbingly low to me.

…
A so-called politician calls another politician a liar.
Oh the HUMANITY!!

OK Donnie…you say you would end the ACA and replace it. But with what? Vouchers? Nothing? What exactly?

Ummmm, except that in this video you are saying you support universal health care.

In July he said replace it with “something terrific.” In late September it was more specific: he’d “make a deal with existing hospitals” to take care of everyone. And everyone could mostly have private plans and their own doctors and everything they want yay! And it won’t cost anything because “we’re gonna save so much money on the other side.” I think that’s where we are now. Clear enough? He’ll just, you know, fix it.

“Look, Ted Cruz is a total liar,”

Period. End of sentence.
