Ted Cruz and the Terrible Loss



When you think of all of the terrible words that have passed between Sen. Cruz and Donald Trump--mostly on Donald Trump's side, it really is quite something that Cruz defends Trump over and over again. And over. And--you get the idea.

Has he defended Trump more than he has his wife, his dad, his dignity, or his faith, all of which Trump has at one time or another attacked? Sure. But maybe it's a form of acting.

You know Cruz was a theater kid once upon a time. Maybe he's decided that discretion is the better part of valor, and also knows from which direction his party's salvation supposedly comes. So he puts on a play, a false face, better than the one he owns.

But what a loss to the theater! He had the range for comedy or tragedy:


But in politics he is farce and tragedy at once. And poorly done, at that.

I want to see its birth certificate. The long form.

Yes, it. It isn't human.

Heh, he doesn't think like regular people, anyway. I left out his weird argument that Trump's SCOTUS pick is good, actually, because we should have 9 justices to rule when Trump inevitable takes the election results to court. Because the people who hate Trump and need convincing definitely want Trump to pick his own referees. Look at the big artificial brain on Ted.
