The real estate mogul and Republican frontrunner revived his favorite nickname for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz at a rally here, repeatedly using it to trash his rival for his alleged close ties to special interests and for his efforts to outmaneuver Trump in the race for delegates to the party convention. “I’m millions of votes ahead of ‘Lyin’ Ted,’” Trump boasted, slamming the Texas senator for trying to exploit a “rigged” and “corrupt” delegate system. Trump’s taunts came just a day after he revealed a new, more restrained side at his New York primary victory event Tuesday night, referring to his rival as “Senator Cruz” and offering a more disciplined message.
