"Ted Cruz is a totally unstable individual. He is the single biggest liar I’ve ever come across, in politics or otherwise," Trump said, days ahead of South Carolina’s pivotal Republican primary.
In a statement, Trump (69) threatened to take legal action against Cruz for him being born in Canada and not in the US. "If Ted is going to continue to lie with such desperation, I have no choice but to fight back," he said adding that one of the ways he can fight back is to bring a lawsuit against him relative to the fact that he was born in Canada and therefore cannot be President.
Cruz, 45, fired back, claiming that he is simply pointing out Trump’s actual positions.
