Let’s put it this way: Ted Cruz is the one politician in Congress who’s so slimy and two-faced that even his own party can’t stand him. He’ll do whatever gets him what he wants in the moment, even if it’s the exact opposite of what he promised others not ten minutes before. He’s openly hated by nearly every single congressperson who’s ever been asked about him, on both sides of the aisle.
“I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.” - Al Franken
Honestly, it’s genuinely impressive that someone with such little charisma has seen so much success as a career politician. He’s like a caricature of the spineless weasel politician you usually see in bad movies.
