PolitiFact: Donald Trump
If the numbers for Cruz are proof that Cruz is a liar, then the numbers for Trump are proof that Trump is the King of Liars.
Keep in mind there is a difference, too, between a lie and a misstatement because one was not well informed or current on an issue. Cruz is a bold-faced liar like Hillary and Trump has made some misstatements while getting familiar with the issues. Cruz has lied to promote himself and his sick agenda, a totally different and dangerous situation.

Keep in mind again that Ted Cruz set his bar at "Christian" values of which "deceit" is not one.

The worst kinds of people are those that claim they are more moral than you and that makes them better.

Ted is one of those people.

Yes, I do keep that in mind, a misstatement would be either a Mostly True or Half True statement. I'm even willing to consider a Mostly False, but not False or Pants on Fire. I'm sorry, saying a presidential candidate is not familar or current on an issue, especially at this point in the campaign, is like saying they are too dumb to learn. I am just in the education field, allegedly the profession of all the dummies, I should not know more about the issues than someone who wants to be president of our country, especially after he has been running for the job for over 9 months. So which is Trump, the biggest liar running or just stupid? It's one or the other.

Getting up to speed. If you are going to give a correct response, there is more work to it than just reading the media online.

He is obviously not stupid, which I am guessing you already know. Succeeding in business and negotiations, one cannot be stupid.

I think you went to school about the same time I did, so I am sure you had American government. The POTUS has a huge amount of resources when it comes to making decisions. There is no way that Trump would have those resources available at this time. I know with the military, he has said that he would consult the Generals and that alone says a lot to me, since my older son is a career officer and the person that becomes Commander In Chief makes a HUGE difference to me. Trump will call in the people he needs to make the best decisions and Lyin' Ted will base his decisions on the Old Testament.

So, no, it is not one or the other. Trump has been hammered with every possible question and expected for a quick response. They did the same thing to Carson, you remember him, the true Christian in the race - I got the bumper sticker!

Ted Cruz is evil to the core. He lies to promote himself. He has been separated from God by his habitual lying and is very dangerous. And, people thought Obama was the anti-Christ!

Whenever Cruz gets caught in a lie, all he has to do is clarify to his minions, "I didn't say what I said I said" ... all is ok then.

Cruz lies whenever he opens his mouth. I find it quite disturbing when I know what the truth is and Cruz says what he says. Cruz even bragged about winning Iowa when he stole Ben Carson's votes in Iowa. Cruz is a low life.

Yeah, right. Why didn't you say that in the first place. He voted for the gang of 8 hoping the House would vote it down then has some convoluted explanation that he was really against it.
Cruz was for giving green cards to all illegals and make them legal.

News headline politicians lie..
Ted is no different.

So is trump, Hillary and Bernie

Trump needs to get off this subject and act presidential if he wants to win. Calling someone a name is so middle school.

They all name call - it's politics and it's OK when it's your candidate doing the calling.

The media does not focus on the attack to Trump, they only focus on Trump when he attacks the attacker. Trump's wife was attacked first. McCain attacked Trump and his supporters.
