Ted Cruz Talks About Spanking His Daughters After a Kid Yells, "You Suck!"
While speaking at a rally yesterday in La Porte, IN, Ted Cruz let the audience in on a little secret: he spanks his two daughters. The senator was campaigning in Indiana ahead of Tueday's primary in the state.
After a young boy heckled Cruz, he said, "Apparently there's a young man who's having some problems." The boy then yelled, "You suck!"
Cruz responded:
"You know, one of the things that hopefully someone has told you is that children should actually speak with respect. Imagine what a different world it would be if someone had told Donald Trump that years ago.
You know, in my household, when a child behaves that way, they get a spanking."
The crowd roared at his comment.
In January, Cruz said Hillary Clinton should get a spanking for her role in the Benghazi attack in 2012. He must not have read about the new study that says spanking is tied to aggressive behavior and mental health problems.
