The verbal scuffle between the two leading Republican presidential candidates over their wives took a turn for the worst on Wednesday, as Ted Cruz unleashed some of his harshest words for Donald Trump yet in the campaign.
This is the second day of the campaign saga involving the candidates’ wives. Previously, Trump had threatened to “spill the beans” on Cruz’s wife, provoking Cruz to call Trump a “coward” in turn.
Lyin‘ Ted Cruz just used a picture of Melania from a G.Q. shoot in his ad. Be careful, Lyin’ Ted, or I will spill the beans on your wife!
