Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz united to attack Donald Trump at the 11th GOP presidential debate in Detroit Thursday night.

According to USA Today, Cruz and Rubio “didn’t attack each other” and instead went anti-Trump.

Trump responded by calling them “little Marco” and “lying Ted.”

Rubio on Trump’s policy: “He doesn’t have answers, and he’s asking you to make him the president of the United States.”

Trump also captured attention Thursday night by saying: “ “Look at those hands. Are they small hands? He referred to my hands — if they’re small, something else must be small,” he said.

“I guarantee you, there’s no problem,” he added.

Ohio Gov. John Kasich said he just wanted to “talk about the issues.”

“I have never tried to go and get into these kind of scrums that we are seeing here on the stage and people say wherever I go, ‘you seem to be the adult on the stage.’”

Ben Carson did not participate in the debate. He is expected to formally withdraw from the race.

At the end of the debate, all of Trump’s rivals conceded they would support him if he wins the nomination.
