Trump-Cruz 2016? Forget about it.
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!

In fact the picture in question was not used by the Cruz campaign but by a PAC supporting him.
Then Trump tweeted this:
"@Don_Vito_08: "A picture is worth a thousand words" @realDonaldTrump #LyingTed #NeverCruz @MELANIATRUMP pic.twitter.com/5bvVEwMVF8"

I can imagine at least at some women (not all of them raging liberals or feminists) taking offense at this.
And now this. No more Mr. Nice Guy:
But Cruz didn’t back down from his pledge to support Trump if he’s the Republican nominee.
By comparison, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are a love match.
Stay tuned. It only promises to get weirder.
Update: A plaintive plea from Trump supporter(!) Dr. Ben Carson:
It's important that we have civility during times of disagreement.
