Describes his battles with venereal disease as his own personal Vietnam. That’s a quote, by the way, on the Howard Stern show. Do you want to spend the next five years with your kids, bragging about infidelity? Now what does he do? He does the same projection, just like a pathological liar. He accuses everyone of lying."

> Earlier in the day, Trump said Cruz's father, Rafael Cruz, was spotted with Lee Harvey Oswald around the time of the murder of President John F. Kennedy. He appeared to be referencing a photo published last month by the National Enquirer that shows Oswald and another man distributing pro-Castro leaflets in New Orleans in 1963.
