Ted Cruz is a putz

Yeah, I know, old news.

Here's the latest thing. On several occasions, Cruz has referred to the insurrection as a "violent terrorist attack." When he repeated this fact the other day, Tucker Carlson-- an even bigger putz-- had the gall to call him out saying "it's a lie."

Then Ted showed the world that he's really made of Jello. A meme I saw nailed it saying that jellyfish were laughing at Cruz's lack of a spine.

On Carloson's shit show, and after first trying to wiggle out of the corner, he begged Carlson for forgiveness for violating the standard GOP talking points about 1/6/21.

Imagine that Cruz were to fulfill his ambition and become president. He's facing down the Chinese (or anyone) in a lose-lose military confrontation. Would Cruz beg his adversary for peace? Some leader! If he can't stand up to a nothing like Tucker Carlson, he certainly can't stand up to other world leaders. Sounds like Trump, doesn't it?

Cruz needs to be kicked out of politics. He's really bad but worse, he's a putz.

He actually said, “It was a violet tourist attic.” A place where visitors wearing pink, purple, mauve, and lilac can go and get Knick knacks.
