Chris Cuomo Slams Senator Ted Cruz For Not Calling Out Donald Trump: He Called Your Wife Ugly! [WATCH]

Things got ugly between Chris Cuomo and Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas during Chris Cuomo’s CNN show Wednesday night (Sept. 30th).

Chris Cuomo challenged Ted Cruz over President Donald Trump’s controversial comments about the white supremacist group Proud Boys. 

Chris Cuomo told him:

“It all troubles me Ted. And to watch guys like you stroke your beard like a wise man instead of telling the president to get on it, when you have power…”

Ted Cruz responded by calling out Chris Cuomo’s brother, Andrew Cuomo, who’s the governor of New York.

“How about telling your brother to get on it?”

Chris Cuomo replied:

“My brother will stand by his own record. Why don’t you talk to the president the way you talk to my brother, Ted? You afraid of him? You think he’ll smack you down at home?”

Ted Cruz sarcastically responded:

“I’m terrified of the Cuomos, you guys are real tough.”

Chris Cuomo added:

“Not the Cuomos. I’m talking about the president. My brother’s not the president. I’m talking about the president, who called you a liar, who said your wife was ugly. That guy… who you won’t say anything about.”
