Sick and tired of the tirade of personal criticism of candidates and their families to each other. I am embarassed how petty and juvenile the candidates sound.

You'll get no argument from me on that.

But one or both of them needs to stop acting like an asshat and start acting like a presidential candidate.

Actually, I don't care what they do to each other because I don't support either one of them. I'm enjoying watching them tear each other down, but I feel for Heidi Cruz.

Agree. The First Lady has to be a strong woman, a stand alone woman since the POTUS has a lot on his plate and doesn't have time to "nurse" a wife who may fall apart when it gets tough.

By the police report, there was no vehicle, just her sitting there, face in hands and possible danger to herself. I suspect she was going to walk into traffic or she with riding with someone that put her out of the car. Neither of those is good. A POTUS would not have time to deal with her special needs.

And, no, we have not all been there. My life hasn't been anything close to easy and I know people who have much harder lives than a wealthy wife of a US Senator and, on top of that, someone whose faith is supposed to anchor them.............

Trump didn't bring out the report. You figure, someone that was close to the family and knew about this went after them with this. Hey, maybe one of Cruz's mistresses was trying to get Heidi out of the way. There are a lot of women out there that would even "do" Ted Cruz to get money and power.

How long ago was the Melania picture.... posted by Cruz supporting pac! On top of that Cruz never said that he was appalled by his supporting pac posting the Melania picture

For a Presidential candidate it seems time is not of the essence.

A person would be deemed unstable sitting in the middle of a busy intersection).

It Does Not Show > Committing Suicide < on the police report because words have been Blacked Out.

Talking about depression and being remorseful is one thing, but having record of a suicidal actions. Why wouldn't it be important to know that in a background for a woman, especially that might be our first lady?
I agree it probably did say the officer was concerned she was suicidal. How would her being suicidal once upon a time be of pressing concern in a First Lady? Homicidal I can see, but suicidal is not presenting a danger to others. Please help me out here, what do you mean about being remorseful? What do you think she has to be remorseful about? That she was depressed or having a mental breakdown? On top of which, it was 11 years ago, plus she didn't take suicidal actions, she was not standing in the middle of the road daring cars to hit her.

Its a sad day when I have to defend Cruz....

Trump needs to stop! The PAC that put out the picture of Melania wasnt pro Cruz, they are ANTI-TRUMP! There are a number of reasons to berate Cruz, but going after his wife is the lowest.

Why does he have to say he's appalled by it? It was a published picture, widely available on the Internet. All it said was "Meet your new First Lady, Melania Trump." It's not like it said "Do you want this **** for First Lady." Nothing negative whatsoever was said about her. The picture is what it is and I don't believe Ted Cruz had anything to do with the taking of that picture.

Wow. I am truly speechless.

It was a picture taken with Melania's permission, done with the specific intent that it was to be published. I doubt Mrs. Cruz intended for anyone to see that report.
