Cruz Unloads on Trump over Planned Parenthood, Supreme Court Vacancy

STEPHANOPOULOS: "He says you’re wrong. He says he will and he says your judgment should be questioned because you supported John Roberts."

George, have you ever seen a Republican on a Republican debate stage defending taking federal taxpayer money and giving it to Planned Parenthood? He said he thinks they do terrific things."
STEPHANOPOULOS: "It certainly has--"
