Yeah tucker was firing REAL bullets and Cruz was doing a tap dance.
I’m a ted cruz fan but he really bit off his tongue this time.
Sloppy language indeed!
I saw the interview quite differently from what you described. Cruz right away acknowledged that he made a mistake in what he said and, explained why he said it. It was Carlson who ‘panicked’ and simply kept repeating himself at least three more times. This seemed, to me, to be quite unnecessary.
Short of groveling, what more should Cruz have done?
