Manchester, New Hampshire (CNN)Donald


Trump on Monday night repeated the offensive term a
woman attending his rally shouted in reference to
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.

The term was flung into the political orbit just a


day before the New Hampshire primary

After first calling on a woman close to the stage to


"shout it out" again, Trump repeated the woman's oneword insult aimed at Cruz: "She said he's a pussy."

The term was flung into the political orbit just a day
before the New Hampshire primary as Trump was discussing Cruz's apparent hesitation during the last GOP
debate on whether he would support waterboarding.
Suddenly, Trump stopped mid-sentence, pointing to a woman near him in the crowd: "She just said a
terrible thing."
"You know what she said? Shout it out because I don't want to say," Trump continued as the woman
appeared to loudly shout the vulgar word again.
But realizing most of the crowd could not hear the woman, Trump decided to take matters into his own
hands.
"OK you're not allowed to say and I never expect to hear that from you again. She said -- I never expect to
hear that from you again -- she said he's a pussy," Trump said as the crowd erupted into a roaring
cacophony of laughter and applause.
"What kind of people do I have here?" Trump joked after the crowd's reaction.
Cruz during the last debate backed the practice of waterboarding, which is considered torture by
international law, but said that he would not "bring it back in any sort of widespread use."
Rick Tyler, Cruz's communications director, called the incident just the "latest episode in the reality show
that Donald has made the 2016 campaign."
"Let's not forget who whipped who in Iowa," he said.
While Cruz contended that waterboarding was not torture, Trump was more direct in his defense of the

"I'd bring back waterboarding," Trump said during the debate. "And I'd bring back a hell of a lot worse than

"So I just want to tell you right now, ma'am, you're reprimanded," Trump said as his crowd laughed.
The woman who yelled the vulgarity that Trump repeated is a 52-year-old Salem, New Hampshire, resident
named Caroline, who declined to give her last name.
She told CNN that she went to the rally hoping to ask Trump a question about how he would crack down on
tax fraud committed by undocumented immigrants.
"He truly cares about the American people," she said.
She said she did not plan to yell out a vulgarity, but when Trump mentioned Cruz, she said she couldn't help
herself.
"It just came out of my mouth," she said. "It wasn't like I thought about it."
Afterwards, she said,"Everybody behind me was just patting me on the back."
She said she knew that Trump was kidding when he reprimanded her.
CNN's Tom Lake contributed to this report.
