I didn’t see it, but I don’t see how he can come back from making that statement.
Either he is an idiot and not future president material or he is just another swamp creature and not presidential material for me.
Hell no. He acted like a fast talking cuck. He lived up to the Lyin’ Ted image.
I heard a rumor on a Houston syndicated radio station that Mssr. Cruz might be running for President. So, of course, he would wish to distance himself from ‘the deplorables’.
He just screwed himself in that gyration.
Did Cancun Cruz apologize for using those words?
If not, why not?
Pooch screwing through and through.
Ted tried to weasel out of it and Tucker would not let him.
Best TV this year so far.
He’s a weasel and he knows he stepped in it.
His ambition knows no bounds.
Including the Constitution.
Vindication?
Watch this behind the scenes with the Cruz family...They should charge admission for this stuff. It will leave you spellbound.☺

Cruz knew he was gonna take a beating. He took the beating. He came as close as a politician ever will to saying “yeah, I effed up.”
But Tucker called him out. Would not let him slip off the hook.
I’ll probably see if I can find a clip of this on YouTube in the morning, I’m still doing something of a media blackout today. Stressed enough already from other things.
With Ted Cruz’s comments and future aspiration to higher office, like with Mike Pence, let the chips fall where they may.

Ted Cruz explains his “terrorist attack” comment.

“Citing his intelligence and carefulness with words, Tucker pushed back against the Senator’s explanations.”
Absolutely. Smart of Tucker to bring that into the argument. Cruz is a clever wordsmith, and he knew EXACTLY what he was saying. Another pol might get away with an, “Aw, shucks. I mis-spoke”, but not Cruz.
They’re both miserable ***** who flop in whatever direction they think gets them more ‘likes’.
Two face freakin ass!! He just blew his chances to get re-elected next time around! Effin DC is poison! SNAKE!! We need someone to replace this treasonous backstabbing POS! Cruz and Crenshaw NEED TO GO!!
Cruz is a weasel.
L
He was spinning for all he was worth.
Fail. In every way imaginable.
He’s done.
Tucker held his feet to the fire......and Ted squirmed!
I’ve been around a while so this sort of thing really shouldn’t affect me. But Ted Cruz words felt like the worst betrayal, a hideous lie to aid the worst people.
I find it really hard to forgive. Absolutely sickened and disgusted. I’m glad Tucker gave him such a hard time.
It seems like a ridiculous political suicide and betrayal. For what? Was he blackmailed?
Ted Cruz also talked about impeaching Biden. Before he did so, I told myself that anyone who pushes hard on that is a fraud, because it just results in president Kamala. The only people who should be pushing this would be Soros orgs to waste the limited time and energy of conservatives.
Just posted this thought on another piece....
Later on the show when Jason Whitlock was on, he agreed with Jason that Cruz needed to be given credit for having the guts to come on the show. It’s a rare occasion to disagree with Tucker but this is one such time. This has very little to do with guts and it’s actually quite simple... It was pure hubris that convinced Cruz to make the ‘terrorism’ speech that he did and as part of that hubris, he was already looking down the road with lofty plans and thinking that this was part of ticket. The firestorm backlash that was stuffed down his throat made it clear what he had to do... J6 one year later only comes around once and if he didn’t take that gambit of going on Tucker’s show, he was done. It was a gamble and his hand was forced to take it. It had zero to do with guts.
As for whether that gamble paid off... I don’t think for one second the jury is out on that one. It didn’t.... he is well and truly done.
He’s finished. Get him a room with Marco Rubio.
