Ew, Dad! That’s gross!

With his two young daughters just feet away from him, Republican presidential contender Ted Cruz told the bizarre story of how he watched porn with Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor.

The Texas senator, his wife Heidi and their daughters — 8-year-old Caroline and 5-year-old Catherine — all took the stage at a CNN town hall Wednesday night, which also featured a strange story about Cruz's love of canned soup.

Before discussing his relationship with his wife and Caroline’s upcoming birthday party, Cruz discussed how he once had to watch porn as part of his duties as a law clerk for the Supreme Court, a strange tale he first recounted in his 2015 memoir.

Trump trying to hide his past weirdness.

Your Buzzfeed link is a different Stern appearance.

The one they have taken down had Trump asked about who the most beautiful women are now. Trump mentioned his daughter (we won’t even get in to the weird stuff he has said there) and he said Paris Hilton (his friend’s daughter) . Trump talked about the first time he saw her when she was 12 and how beatiful she was. Stern, that paragon of virtue asked Trump if he wanted to “do her”. Trump said, no, she was 12 so he he wasn’t interested. Stern asked if he saw her sex tape (they dint use the word porn). Trump said yes he watched it. When asked how he got it (this was early 2000’s), he answered Melania brought it home and they watched it together.

I am not surprised they finally took it down.

There’s more on it that is not good.

Sirius owns the content.

Trump can ask them to take it down. Or they may have in their own.

Perhaps they will use the equal time excuse?

and he begins too many sentences with the word ... "So .... "

Professional profilers see that as total arrogance and condescending, where most who use that, are all but ignoring what anyone else is saying.

Has he no shame?

How embarrassing and inappropriate to the legacy of Hon. O’Connor.

He’s relaying a story of something that happened while he was clerking for Justice Reinquist.

Exactly, they make it sound like he and O’Connor were alone sitting in a dark room with beer and popcorn. He wrote about it in his book, "A Time for Truth."

“Cruz served as a law clerk to then Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist. One day, he was standing behind Rehnquist and Justice Sandra Day O'Connor.

"We were in front of a large computer screen gazing at explicit, hard-core pornography," Cruz wrote.”

“The reason? The court was considering a case challenging a law that regulated online porn. The clerks were older and not well-versed in the Internet, so court librarians set up a tutorial for the justices and their clerks on how easy it was to find porn online. Cruz watched as the librarian typed in the word "cantaloupe," though it was misspelled.”

"A slew of hard-core, explicit images showed up onscreen," he wrote. "As we watched these graphic pictures fill our screens, wide-eyed, no one said a word. Except for Justice O'Connor, who lowered her head, squinted slightly, and muttered, 'Oh, my.'"

Like his daughters even know what pornography is. It’s not like he described what they were watching in any details, whatosever. For all they know, he was watching shoes being made.

Big nothing burger except for people with dirty minds and hatred.

Here is an article about his appearances on Stern.

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/08/02/donald-trump-s-douchebaggiest-interview-ever-any-girl-you-have-i-can-take-from-you.html

You’ll notice it’s from August and that the YouTube videos are both no longer active.

They were when this was published.

The 2001 got scrubbed first, months ago. The 2003 one got scrubbed recently.

Here’s the link. I’ll agree, kind of creepy of Trump. It’s hard to imagine being in his position.

I still support him because crass is what is needed now.

My father wasn’t much better (and he didn’t have billions). I still respect my father though.

...it puts O'Conner in an awkward position

This whole story is either a complete fabrication by Cruz or it's disturbing on so many levels. For starters, Cruz has no business speaking for Sandra Day O'Conner about her reaction to porn. If this actually happened, should it even have been shared outside court chambers? I find it hard to grasp that the judges watched this with each other, and with aides present, in a male/female environment.

FWIW, the only time I'd watch porn with a guy is in a committed relationship, keeping it personal. NO WAY would a guy, even in that kind of relationship, be allowed to speak for me as to reaction.

This story actually increases the "yuck" factor about Cruz. And I didn't think that was possible.

Keep throwing shite against the wall. Something might stick.

The best thing about Trumpsters is that they are so immature and obvious.

Have you read all of the comments? A lot of us aren’t commenting on his daughters being present. It’s yucky on other levels.

The YouTube was only taken down recently.

I listened. I should have transcribed the things he said. But a Trump supporters don’t care.

I brought certain things up here about what he said, with active link at the time.

Trump supporters don’t care.

The Daily Beast left out the part where he talked about Marla Maples getting pregnant (in the midst of a discussion Stern brought up about using condoms) and Trump asking what they were “going to do about it”? The Beast wouldn’t care that he was saying his initial response was to have an abortion. That would be a point in his favor to them.

Your comment is fair enough and sane.

But the crazy responses I got turned me off.

We can support whom we want and differ in opinion but to my mind discussion should be rational and honest and based in reality.

Hardly. He has shown his true colors. He is a dirty trickster and he is NO different than any other politician.

Yes, while Ted was watching porn with Sandra Day O’Connor as part of their Supreme Court duties, what was Mr Trump doing?

I’m sorry, I asked that wrong question incorrectly ... WHO was Trump doing at the time?

I know, I know, he won’t name names because they were really important married people.

It’s funny that when Trump’s philandering is mentioned, we hear only that we’re electing a president, not the pope, but those same folks feign getting the vapors over Cruz doing his job at the Supreme Court.

Faux outrage is easily detectable.
