Media personality Glenn Beck administered a mock presidential "oath of office" to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) as he endorsed him on stage—and Cruz got the oath wrong when he took it.

"What is the oath of office that you have to take?" Beck asked Cruz after the Texas Senator joined him on stage after Beck's more-than-half-hour-long speech endorsing Cruz.

"What-what?" Cruz replied.

"Dear God, if you don't know this, everything else-" Beck joked. "When you raise your right hand, what are you going to say?"

"I pledge to honor and defend the Constitution of the United States of America," Cruz replied.

Technically speaking, that's not the oath of office for the president of the United States.

Oh Gawd, Now Beck says Ted Cruz, the first hispanic President of the United States.

Beck had to add that. LOL

[PJBankard]

That’s hilarious.

[Karl Spooner]

Sad to see Cruz being led around like this.

Much bigger cheer for Vets than the Trump insults. I think these folks are already working on Plan B.

ey yi yi....

I stopped paying attention to Beck years ago...the guy is unstable.

[Husker24]

Well gee, I guess it’s settled then. No need for an election now.

[The Iceman Cometh]

Ted Cruz can get the oath of office wrong and people will still vote for him. ;-)

Bkmk

In Beck’s case the Book of Moron is more likely. What the hell was that Ted?

[Las Vegas Ron]

I get it, both men are trying to win, it is what it is.

I'm not going to be so petty as to nit pic it.

If either one of them can destroy DC, I'm all behind it, the petty crap here is getting to be too much...there is no rational thinking around here this season.

Oh boy.

[bimboeruption]

Beck made Cruz hold a compass which is used as a symbol in mormonism.

Beck claimed it belonged to George Washington.

[Pox]

As fond of Mr. Cruz that I am, this is beyond embarrassing.

He should never have joined up with Glenn Beck. I cannot see any way this will help his campaign, and I can see it being used against him from multiple angles.

If Mr. Cruz would disassociate himself from Glenn Beck, it would be a very intelligent move, IMO.

[nopardons]

Beck is a raving lunatic who is doing Cruz NO good at all.
And this stunt is beyond stupid.

[frankenMonkey]

I think you've got it right.

When we look back on this election, this is the moment that it turned.

[MamaTexan]

That seems a tad...presumptuous.

[dforest]

Yeah, I know, I think this is more about Beck than Cruz here. Cruz probably didn’t know Beck was going to do that.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Still say Beck looks like Jeb in that pic....

[donna]

I can’t watch.

Beck is sadistic.

[dforest]

Beck did that on stage?
