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.

I think he was jangling a few seer-stones in his pockets.
Bwahahaha. Too funny.
I can't imagine that happening.
It's risible.
When combined with the "unlikable smarty pants" meme that Trump has been on over the last couple of weeks it's likely Cruz' permanent caricature in the modern media.
Glen Beck called up the nerd to swear him in as Homecoming King and it was all a cruel ruse.
but remember what that dolt did right after the Palin pick? He was so weird I wouldn’t have been surprised if he’d broke down in tears on camera.
That boy ain’t right.
you can. if you have the energy for it.
Well at least he isn’t standing in front of a “Office of The President-Elect” seal ;’}
WHAT WERE GLENN AND TED THINKING ?
Beck always goes overboard. As i said in another post. I doubt Cruz knew Beck was going to do that.
He should have told Glenn he wouldn’t take that oath until it was real. He could have gotten out of it.
Trump will call out Beck loudly on this one!
"I don't know why Glen Beck referred to Ted Cruz as the first Hispanic President. Everyone know he's a Canadian." LOL
Kisssss of Death!!! Aaaarrrrggghhh!!!
Oh yeh, that was the worst most arrogant image evah!
Sarah Palin's recent endorsement of Donald Trump is probably just as double-edged in the long run, but it sure had better optics.
Mr. niteowl77
And Cruz accepted an endorsement from a nutjob, why?
And Cruz appeared on stage at an event with the nutjob?
Either Cruz is desperate or he’s got pretty lousy judgement.
Where were they? Laughing too hard to type. SNL kit worthy.
Not everything and anything. But this one thing should do fine. Thanks for your concern.
The Duke was a dork, but he is an army veteran.
He and Ted can give each other the secret Harvard Law handshake.

Beck called Cruz into his office? Great optics there. LOL.
Not a good idea to accept Beck’s endorsement.
Or this sort of fruit cake thing happens.
Strange is the only word that comes to mind.
