Iowa – Texas Sen. Ted Cruz says former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lied about what she knew about the Benghazi attack and American voters will deliver a “spanking,” just like he does to his 5-year-old daughter when she lies.

Cruz made the comments Friday in response to a question from an audience member at a campaign stop in Iowa.
Cruz says Clinton knew the 2012 attack in Benghazi that left an American ambassador dead was a terrorist attack, but she said publicly that it wasn’t terrorism.
Cruz says that if his 5-year-old daughter “says something that she knows to be false, she gets a spanking.”
He says that in the case of Clinton, the Democratic presidential front-runner, “the voters have a way of administering a spanking.”
I love Cruz!’ He’s principled genuine and seems to be a good person. Hard to find those qualities amongst politicians. Trump president and Cruz vice is what I’m wishing for.
`So Rafael E. Cruz us now admitting to child abuse?
Politifact found that both Trump and Cruz lie far more than Clinton.
I’d much rather deal with a politician who spins the facts than an acknowledged child abuser.
I’m no Clinton fan, but I’m tempted to vote for her just to administer a spanking to the idiotic GOP who wasted untold millions of OUR DOLLARS on their stupid Bengazi grandstanding (and continue to do the same on their dozens of congressional votes to repeal Obamacare).
