Donald Trump says as a “world-class businessman” he knows a thing or two about building relationships but that Ted Cruz (R-TX) has failed at making friends.

“I got along with everybody. You get along with nobody,” Trump said during Thursday’s GOP debate Houston.

Cruz fired back pointing out that Trump actually donated “hundreds of thousands of dollars to Democrats,” which is why, Cruz said, that Trump has sold out on issues like immigration.

“Anyone who really cared about illegal immigration wouldn’t be hiring illegal immigrants. Anyone who really cared about illegal immigration wouldn’t be funding harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, wouldn’t be funding the gang of eight,” Cruz said. “And, you know, he is right. When you stand up to Washington, when you honor the promise you made to the men and women who elected you and say, enough with the corruption, enough with the cronyism, let’s actually stand for the working men and women of this country, Washington doesn’t like it, and Donald, if you want to be liked in Washington, that’s not a good attribute for a president.”
