Ted Cruz eats his own booger on live TV

[Joe the Revelator]

[doc03]

1. I bet Trump says something about that n /t

[imanamerican63]

2. This will be played over, and over, and over, and over.........

[tblue37]

35. It's his "Dean scream" moment. But it wasn't like that. It was something from his mouth. nt

[scscholar]

81. That is what he wants!

He is so desperate for publicity that he'll resort to anything.

[TeeYiYi]

3. Omg...

...roflmfao

Well, that story isn't going away any time soon. lol

TYY

[Joe the Revelator]

4. I find it really hard to watch. nt

[demwing]

66. And yet...

Can't.stop.watching...

[flamingdem]

5. REC!

[AnnetteJacobs]

6. Oh, there just HAD to be a video?

[EL34x4]

7. OH MY GOOD LORD!!!! GOOD JESUS!!!!!

I'm fucking dying here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IS this real?!?!?!?!?!

[Joe the Revelator]

13. Completely real. Uttery real

[tblue37]

36. Not quite. I was grossed out seeing it during the debate, but it came from his mouth,

not his nose.

[magical thyme]

67. agreed. I just studied (yup, lol) the fox video. it comes from his mouth at 2-3 seconds

link for the nuts who want to confirm

[Joe the Revelator]

70. I'm still going with booger, because frankly, Cruz deserves to be known as....

....a booger muncher.

[SDJay]

8. Seems Appropriate

[nc4bo]

9. Naw...no way this really happened. nt

[herding cats]

15. It actually might have.

My hubby was trying to get me to look and see what was hanging out of Cruz's nose. I refused because I just didn't want to know (ick!) and was busy here on DU at the time.

So, it could possibly be true.

[nc4bo]

20. Oh Claude Hammercy!!!!!!!!!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

10. Guess I didn't miss anything

Watched college basketball instead, Cal vs Arizona. Did they really get in an argument over dick size?

[Joe the Revelator]

14. Dicks and boogers. It was 'awesome'

[liberalhistorian]

38. "Dicks and Boogers".

That should be the tagline for all of the republican debates. Matter of fact, it should be the tagline for all republicans. Pretty much says it all, doesn't it?

[herding cats]

23. I wasn't going to watch it either at first.

Then the Trump rebuttal to Rubio's alluding to him have a small penis was being talked about, next thing you know I was all in.

It was actually an amazing event to witness. It was part MMA, part WWE and part slap-stick bugger eating, dick measuring. It has all the earmarks of a hit reality TV show.

FOX should have made it PPV for $49.99. They'd be rolling in the dough right now!

[herding cats]

11. Dude get a freakin' tissue!

That is the nastiest thing I've ever seen in presidential debate. My Hubby said something was dangling out of his nose, but I chose not to look because..ick! I didn't know he'd eaten it, though.

Eww, just eww!

[morningfog]

12. I couldn't take my eyes off it and then he gobbled it up.

[Joe the Revelator]

16. *poof*

[SammyWinstonJack]

58. Ugh.

[PufPuf23]

17. I am going to resist and not watch this clip.

I find the idea is so very disgusting.

There is something extremely repulsive to me about Cruz.

[herding cats]

18. Don't.

I almost puked. It shows what you'd expect, and I think is all too real.

[mercuryblues]

65. am so glad

I am not the only one. My reaction surprised me. I have kids, worked in a TBI unit and open heart post-op for many years at a hospital. I have seen and cleaned it all. But this, this is what I gagged over. LOL

[Joe the Revelator]

19. I agree! Its not just ANY booger, its a Ted Cruz booger

Super slimey.

[nruthie]

21. I wondered at the time what that thing was hanging there.

Thanks for pointing it out.

[2naSalit]

22. Oh man!

That ranks right up there with the legend of Murray;s Fart! He may never live this down... how appropriate.

[L. Coyote]

24. Let's see Donnie Drumpf out do that!

[mountain grammy]

25. Thanks, I need that..

[Blaukraut]

26. oh for crying out loud. I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone

This election season is unlike anything we've seen in the past. We've finally resorted to boogers and dicks. Where's my wine bottle?

[CoffeeCat]

28. Wine bottle?

Only wine?

I watched their debate tonight and I just might have to start smoking crack.

[MissB]

29. .

[Blaukraut]

30. Ha!

[KentuckyWoman]

63. LOL

[CoffeeCat]

27. The booger that ended a campaign

Seriously. Ted is out now.

Imagine that. You spend your life in politics, rising to the top. You finally run for president, spend millions on your campaign--only to end it all by eating your own booger during a presidential debate.

[AgerolanAmerican]

33. I'm dying here

I came by to see if anybody saw that and lo and behold I was not the only one

the GOP field is such an incredible joke it's hard to watch

[flamingdem]

31. 19 RECS for the booger post! nt

[Cali_Democrat]

32. LOL!

[CoffeeCat]

34. Fantastic news for Ted Cruz!

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/eating-boogers-may-boost-immunity-scientist-suspects/

[Barack_America]

37. So THAT'S how he tolerates himself!

He's immunizing himself against...himself with every booger.

Tough way to end your political career, he would have gotten more pleasure out of a good old fashioned sex scandal. Or maybe not, he's a weird dude.

[hollograham]

39. this is so painful to watch

[IsItJustMe]

40. I saw this while watching the debate.

I must be a perfectionist because it was bugging the hell out of me and I thought to myself, "I wish he would wife that shit off his lips, whatever it is".

Now I see a close up, and well, OMG.

[Blue_In_AK]

75. I saw it, too.

How humiliating for him. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

[restorefreedom]

41. i was listening via young turks

they were all freaking out.

ana said "someone needs to tell him there is someing on his lip"

and they all said "he ate it!!!!"


ewwwww" and other assorted expressions of disgust

i was so glad i was not watching it

[Turborama]

42. I'm guessing a lump of coke that fell out of his beak.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

48. No coke - Pepsi!

Cheesebooger, Cheesebooger!

[SammyWinstonJack]

60. ROFL! OMG!

[intrepidity]

43. Ewwwwww... did anyone see it actually come from his nose?

Maybe it was a tonsil stone (tonsilloliths)?

Warning: don't, I repeat, don't do a Google image search for tonsil stone. Just don't.

[mockmonkey]

61. I believe that is what it was. n/t

[OwnedByCats]

73. I think

it was a tonsil stone too. Not that it's any better, tonsil stones might be even more disgusting to munch on lol

[Tripper11]

44. so finally. something of substance from Cruz's mouth!!??!?!

[A HERETIC I AM]

55. The problem is....

It was going IN, not out.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

45. Well, if it's good enough for occupiers of bird sanctuaries ... (nt)

[Tree-Hugger]

46. Why? why? WHHHHHYYYYY?

Why did I click on this? Legit dry-heaving over here.

[Lars39]

47. K & R *Just* for op title...

'cause there ain't no way I'm watching that video.

[malaise]

49. Good effin' grief

[Hortensis]

52. Thought I'd stumbled into a Donald trump forum.

Then I realized this happened at the debate. Is this, then, the kind of stuff that is going to save America?

[UCmeNdc]

50. Truly Disgusting!

UUUUUUggggggggghhhhhhhh!

[boston bean]

51. I was wondering what that was on his lip! I thought it was spittle.... but nope it's worse!

[VOX]

53. Saw it live...while I was eating!

Incredibly disgusting! Natural, but disgusting nonetheless.

[Blus4u]

54. Didn't watch the video, didn't see that portion of the debate...

Just reading the comments here makes me gag.

Peace

[Miles Archer]

56. Cruz / Booger 2016. Clinton? Fuggedaboutit! Sanders? Fuggedaboutit! CRUZ / BOOGER 2016!

At least he found a running mate worthy of his stature.

Ted Cruz, welcome to your own Zapruder film.

[liberal N proud]

57. Protein

[titaniumsalute]

59. It's a new conspiracy...BOOGahzi

[Paladin]

62. YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT! (nt)

[randome]

64. God told him to eat that booger to prove his worthiness.

And then God laughed for more than 20 minutes straight.

[Joe the Revelator]

68. Our god is a cruel god....

[Wednesdays]

69. OMG, how ironic

The entire GOP establishment, including the media and the debate monitors, had their sights set on shooting down Trump since rMoney's Thursday morning ramblings, and THIS happens...finishing Cruz's already dwindling hopes for nomination.

Looks like it's pretty much Trump vs. "Little Marco" from here on. I'll bet Rancid Penis is popping some heavy-duty narcotics today.

[Mendocino]

71. $50 says the Smails kid picks his nose,

....$50 more says he eats it.

[Laxman]

72. Spalding For President.....

you beat me to it!

[JunkYardDogg]

74. It is residue from having his head stuck/shoved up his ass

Sorry folks, you may be wrong 'bout the booger
It might be sumpten even worse
I always knew that this POS was a walking, breathing Haz Mat remediation site

[napkinz]

76. What Snot To Like About Ted Cruz?

[Mudcat]

78. Booger Nights

[Kalidurga]

77. I didn't have to watch the debate to know this was the most intelligent thing done on stage...

during the debate. The rest of them just flung poo at each other, but none of the rest of them had the decency to clean up after themselves.

[Whiskeytide]

79. Google it and listen to it with better audio ...

... I think a portion of the crowd went "ewwwww" when he sucked it in.

[Mike__M]

80. Expect a surge in the polls for Cruz

This was pandering genius; he'll pick up a bunch of Trump supporters.

[napkinz]

82. whom will the party PICK?

[lunatica]

83. Gah!!

I'm sorry I clicked on the link!!!

[Blue Owl]

84. Then huffs his own farts

[robhalf4369]

85. Gross

He seems to enjoy it, too. Ugh.
