What a piece of shit, the sad part about it is the idiots who fell for it will continue to be bombarded with apocalyptic chain emails about the end of days coming if the GOP doesn't gain control of the government.

They'll probably 2nd mortgage their double wides, and pawn in their Dale Jr memorabilia to help Cruz fight his Holy War against whoever their imaginary enemy happens to be this week.
