offers to wrestle Perlman. Oh wait. That's wrong. Ted offers for Gym Jordan to wrestle Perlman.

"Let's you and him fight." Do I have that right?

The whole thing is hilarious! Gaetz and Cruz think they are so clever. Perlman just toys with them. Like a cat with a lizard.

indeed

The people coming after him for not defending his wife and father as much as he did Gaetz has been FABULOUS.

Quote from Al Franken's book.

He really is a smarmy, entitled little jerk. Man, but I wish Beto had beaten him. He still has another 4 years in the Senate.

(and I'm paraphrasing here). Ted Cruz has the most punchable face in the world. When I read that I snorted my beverage and damn near ruined a laptop.

Giant tag team event! Mayor Pete teams up with Ron Perlman in a classic "speed & power" tag team, with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as coach and manager. The ass whipping unleashed on Gym (socks) Jordan, on behalf of every kid Gym ever ever bullied, will have blood all over the ring before the first pinfall!
When. Big Ron tags in, he will suplex Ted Cruz into the turnbuckle where Gym is cowering! Epic! Special guest referee Blind Mike Tyson will have to stop the match!

the side affect of this spat is people are also tweeting lots of things referring to gym jordans past of turning a blind eye to sexual abuse.

I’m so glad @tedcruz reminded us of @Jim_Jordan’s wrestling days...did Jim ever get investigated for aiding and abetting in the molestation of the wrestlers who were under his watch and came to him for help, whom he ignored? How can this guy serve in Congress???
