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 he’s telling, in that minute he believes it, Cruz added. "But the man is utterly amoral. Morality does not exist for him.”
-SNIP-
“It’s why he went after Heidi directly, attacked her and smeared her," Cruz said. "Heidi isn’t pretty enough for him. ... Donald is a bully. ... Bullies don’t come from strength, they come from weakness. ... There’s 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.

That’s why the Carly match-up so soon? To show how wonderful with ladies he is?
You should know Lyin’ Ted.
This would be a whole lot easier to take seriously from a guy who didn’t actually believe he was Moses. ;)
Trump lives rent free in Cruz’s head 24/7.
Here’s another reason to dislike Cruz: His quips and attempted jokes are LAME. He’s unlikable and unfunny.
Trump lives rent free in Cruz’s head 24/7.
Yep, and vise versa.

And Brain. Dead. Stupid.
I have three Twitter followers that live in Indiana. All three voted today. All three said the same thing to me.
“I just voted, and now I feel like I need a shower”
We are so royally screwed.
In a couple months, Trump reduced Cruz to this. Imagine what he'll do to the Hilldawg being in her head 24/7 for the next 6.
Projecting?
Looks like Ted is really burning his bridges here.
So, it’s come down to this.....................................B^(
Looks like Trump’s comments about Cruz Sr. had the desired effect.
Man, that is batshit crazy stuff.
Ted is a master of the lie of omission.
Like someone said on another thread, this is Ted projecting again.
“Cruz: Trump is an ‘utterly amoral’ bully, narcissist, pathological liar”
Ted, in the world of psychology this kind of behavior is known as “projection”.
I think Cruz’s campaign is kaput, which makes it even weirder that Trump would promote this nonsense connecting Cruz Sr. to the Kennedy assassination.
Wow. Ted has gone full Beck.
