Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz on Wednesday joked that he would consider backing over rival Donald Trump with his car if chance arose.
Appearing on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Cruz was asked by Kimmel whom he disliked more: President Obama or Trump.
"I dislike Obama's policies more. Donald is a unique individual," he said, trailing off to laughter.
"If I were in my car and getting ready to reverse and saw Donald in the backup camera, I'm not confident which pedal I'd push."
Trump last week launched an attack on Cruz's wife, Heidi, after an anti-Trump super-PAC used a picture of Trump's wife, Melania, posing nude in an ad.
Cruz has said multiple times he was not involved in the ad and has slammed Trump for bringing his wife into the race.
He also criticized Trump on Wednesday for his comments about abortion, saying the businessman "hasn't seriously thought through the issues, and he'll say anything to get attention."
Trump drew controversy Wednesday for saying women should be punished for getting illegal abortions. He later sought to clarify his position, saying he would not punish women but instead the abortion providers.
Cruz (and Kimmel) is about as funny as a kid on crutches!
Cruz employs Chad Sweet as his Campaign Chair who is married to Julie Sweet the CEO of Accenture who holds the Obamacare contracts. Not only will he not get rid of Obamacare Cruz would be the largest Abortion provider in the World.
I'd like to cordially thank this year's crop of candidates for dragging the Republican party, of which I at one time counted myself a member, for dragging the party through an endless river of filth.
