Donald Trump Says He Wouldn’t Call Ted Cruz a “Pussy” If He Were President Because His Uncle Taught at MIT


Donald Trump says he wouldn’t call Ted Cruz a pussy if he were president because “when it comes to great steaks, I’ve just raised the stakes.”

Just kidding!

He actually told Lester Holt that he wouldn’t call Cruz “a pussy” as president because “I went to one of the best schools. I was a good student. I have an uncle who was one of the top professors at MIT. It’s a good gene pool right there.” So that doesn’t make that much more sense than the steak thing.
