Yeah. Ted seems to have the personality of a dry brillo pad.
The exchange was very awkward, and I don’t get Cruz’s point. Was he trying to say that maybe Trump was right to skip the debate? He sincerely complained about them asking too many questions that led to unkind responses about him from the others.... then joked (I guess?) about leaving. Not sure I understand what he was trying to get at.
As much as I dislike Rubio, he played off of that exchange masterfully.
He was mocking Trump for not showing up. Pretty obvious.
