26. I don't often get into pissing contests

But Cruz often uses some notion of hyper-inflated masculinity that he supposedly has as a plus over whatever opponent he's dealing with, but like many have pointed out, cuddling up to Trump after he insulted your wife and never getting an apology is no way to be, "a man."

And at the risk of speaking ill about the dead, the only thing I actively disliked about McCain (other than his inflicting Sarah Palin on us) was his cuddling up with W. after W's campaign went dirty on him, claiming that one of his adopted daughters of Bangladesh origins, was the result of - of course - his having an affair with a Black woman. That picture of him giving W. a hug should have instead been a remake of that famous picture of Ali standing over Sonny Liston.
