A CNN debate between a Donald Trump supporter and former Ted Cruz communications director Amanda Carpenter went off the rails Friday when the Trump supporter suddenly accused Carpenter of having an illicit affair with her former boss.
CNNs Kate Bolduan was hosting a segment on the feud between Trump and Ted Cruz. Are you ready for Trump to move on? she asked Boston Herald columnist Adriana Cohen.
Oh, absolutely I think we should move on, she responded. Where we should move to is The National Enquirer story that has reported that has Ted Cruz has had affairs with five mistresses, including youve been named as well, Amanda.
I dont think thats moving on at all, Adriana, an exasperated Bolduan interrupted.

At some point, just when you think they've hit bottom, someone finds a trap door in the floor and says "hey look - we can go even lower".

Then it was whose wife was more bangable. Lordy, what's next?
Now it's who's banging whom who is not who's wife. Lordy, what's--never mind. I don't want to think about it.

(70,417 posts)Carpenter kept her composure pretty well, considering the circumstances. Whats out there is tabloid trash. If someone wants to comment on it, they can talk to my lawyer, she responded.
Its categorically false, she continued angrily. You should be ashamed for spreading this smut. Donald Trump supporters should be held to account for it.
Im not spreading smut, Cohen responded.
I will not be intimidated, Carpenter shot back. I will continue to make my thoughts known about Donald Trump. Im not backing down.
