Ok, but why does *that* matter?

Rafael thinks he has a shot at running for president again so he’s trying to seed the idea that he stood up to Trump.

Let’s try that without a “secret recording”. Cruz is a coward.

I truly think they all hate him. They hate Donny, they hate Miller, they hate Bannon, their own base, they hate the podcasters, they hate the MAGA heads and the insane people at these rallys.
But they’re too far gone. They enabled this descent so now they have to keep playing the game. Everything they gave them success disgusts them but they have no choice but to embrace it because they want the power that comes with all this ugliness that badly. And because they don’t want to risk that these morons will try to turn the noose for Mike Pence on them. Trapped in a prison of their own nonsense.
If the results weren’t this horrific I’d almost feel bad for them.

“I’m gonna tell you what I really think of Donald Trump. This man is a pathological liar. He doesn’t know the difference between truth and lies. He lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth. And, in a pattern that I think is straight out of a psychology textbook, his response is to accuse everybody else of lying. He accuses everybody on that debate stage of lying, and it is simply a mindless yell, whatever he does he accuses everyone else of doing. The man cannot tell the truth but he combines it with being a Narcissist. A Narcissist at a level I don’t think this country’s ever seen. Donald Trump is such a Narcissist that Barack Obama looks at him and goes, ‘dude, what’s your problem?’ Everything in Donald’s world is about Donald. And he combines being a pathological liar – and I say pathological because I actually think Donald, if you hooked him up to a lie detector test, he could say one thing in the morning, one thing at noon, and one thing in the evening, all contradictory, and he’d pass the lie detector test each time. Whatever lie he’s telling at the time, he believes it. But the man is utterly amoral. Let me finish this, please. The man is utterly amoral. Morality does not exist for him. It’s why he went after Heidi directly, smeared my wife, attacked her; apparently she’s not pretty enough for Donald Trump. I may be biased, but I think if he’s making that allegation, he’s also legally blind. But, Donald is a bully – you know, we just visited with fifth graders. Every one of us knew bullies in elementary school. Bullies don’t come from strength, bullies come from weakness. Bullies come from a deep yawning cavern of insecurity – there’s a reason Donald builds giant buildings and puts his name on them everywhere he goes. And I will say, there are millions of people in this country who are angry. They’re angry at Washington, they’re angry at politicians that have lied to them. I understand that anger, I share that anger. And Donald is cynically exploiting that anger and he is lying to his supporters.”
-Ted Cruz, May 3, 2016.
He would later go on to be Trump’s biggest bootlicker.

In order to make it up to Trump, Ted is going to have to be 110% subservient. Not his usual 100%.

More of this.
Dems in Congress need to start recording back room conversations with republicans and take the mask off of how unpopular the administration really is.
It’s like the Wizard of Oz.

Fuck Cruz. He is just planning a path away from Trump, so he can have a political future. He needs to never hold office again.

Only on the topic of tariffs, though, right? Not the violent fascism, that’s fine.

Which makes Cruz worse than both of them. He knows they’re awful, but he’s too much of a pussy to do anything about it.

Cruz is such a little bitch. Trump calls his wife ugly on live TV and insults him in the worst ways, and still Cruz can’t help but kiss his ass every day. It’s so pathetic, just like all of MAGA.

I could care less what Cruz thinks or says. He is complicit. He is a coward. He lies through his teeth.

The thing about Republicans and people like JD Vance is, THEY FUCKING KNOW BETTER.
They know that a lot of this is wrong. They know that a lot of this is ***MEGA*** illegal, and they just don’t care.
They made the political calculation that selling their soul is the better route.
And I feel like people who know better and do evil are so so so much worse than people who don’t.

I love that Ted Cruz wakes up and still sees himself as president one day.
Fuck Ted Cruz. He’s been brown-nosing Trump since he got elected Pres. Cruz is a scumbag. Even after the insurrectionists stormed the Capitol on J6, he still voted to not certify the election results. He was still a cuck for Trump. Fled Cruz left Texas, as millions were without power and people were dying in their homes, for sunny Cancun. On the taxpayer’s dime. Then proceeded to blame it on his kids. He’s a weasel. He has no redeeming qualities.
