Repeats supporter calling Ted Cruz a "pussy" at Manchester rally

At a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire, on the eve of the primary, Trump jokingly admonished a supporter for shouting a vulgar insult at Ted Cruz before repeating it into the microphone for the entire crowd to hear. "She said he's a pussy," Trump announced to cheers and laughter, feigning disapproval while amplifying the gendered slur. The moment shattered traditional norms of presidential decorum and signaled that vulgarity would be a feature, not a bug, of his campaign style.
