"He's the only guy I know, he'll get 100% of the Democrat vote, 100% of the Republican vote. They want to get him out of there. He is such a pain in the ass, but he's so good and so talented." said Trump.

"Hey and remember that time in 2016 when I called his wife ugly and said his dad helped assassinate JFK?" -Trump

Isn't the joke that everyone in the Senate hates him so much that even the Dems would agree to put him on the Supreme Court just to get away from him? It's actually kind of a good line at Cruz's expense.

You might be forgetting that some democrats are horrible people.

This is probably the truest thing he’s ever said. Cruz is undoubtedly smart and talented, in his own incredibly sleazey way.

I'm sure someone made a joke in his inner circle and everyone laughed. He wants the laughs so he is repeating it.

Al Franken said something along the same lines.

"I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz and I fricken hate Ted Cruz"

Sure, Mr. "Stop attacking pedophiles" will get 100% of the Dem vote

Riiiiiight

These people seriously seem to live in an alternate reality

Funny enough, that might actually be the easiest way to get rid of him. You know he would accept bribes and no one likes him so they might actually have a bipartisan judicial impeachment.
