It was a poison pill. Don’t believe me? Ask Sessions, Lee, or Schumer. Chuck Schumer, the bill’s chief sponsor, said that it would have passed had it not been for Ted Cruz.

Ted handled that perfectly fine.

Yes, it WAS nice of Megyn to "apologize" for kneecapping Teddie on live TeeVee.

The next day, when it doesn't count... LOL! :)

So hope that people understand Senate inside baseball?

Yeah, that’s not something I’ll hang hope onto.

Why can’t I ask Ted Cruz and get a straight answer from him?

I’m supposed to ask other politicians for a straight answer? Something seems wrong with that.

Furthermore, Sessions, Lee or Schumer aren’t running for president.

Ted Cruz is, and if Ted Cruz can’t properly explain himself on the most important issue of the election, guess who isn’t going to be elected president...

He could have done better.

BTW, the amendment was rejected, and the bill passed the Senate. S.744 - All congressional actions

Poison pill.
That is how I took it when it happened. It seemed pretty overtly so. I still think it.
