Stone, a former adviser to Trump, has been labeled by some in the media as a “ratfucker” due to using dirty political tricks when he worked in the Nixon administration.

“It’s not surprising that Donald Trump’s tweet occurs the day before the attack comes out,” Cruz said. (RELATED: Trump Retweets Photo Mocking Ted Cruz’s Wife’s Looks)

“And I would note, that Mr. Stone is a man who has 50 years of dirty tricks behind him. He’s a man for whom a term was coined for copulating with a rodent. Well, let me be clear. Donald Trump may be a rat but I have no desire to copulate with him,” Cruz insisted. (RELATED: Trump Surrogate Confronts Cruz Supporter With Shocking Affair Allegations [VIDEO])
