Peggy Noonan and Ted Cruz

Did they go to the same locution class?

Both speak every word they say as if they were delivering a speech that was the singularly most soaring rhetoric in history. As if every word they utter is the most important since the words of Confucius. As if everyone present should swoon at the sound of their voices and lay prostrate in the face of their intellect.

Oy fucking vey.





context: Cuz on Morning Joe.

She’s like a central casting caricature of a self-important elitist snob. Cruz is just totally creepy.
