Ted Cruz Again Displays His 'Audiographic' Memory With a Nearly Perfect Re-enactment of a Scene From 'The Princess Bride'
How good is the “audiographic” memory of Republican presidential candidate Texas Sen. Ted Cruz?
Cruz demonstrated his impressive skills during a meeting with voters for the taping of a segment on WMUR-TV in New Hampshire Thursday, acting out a scene from one of his favorite movies, “The Princess Bride.”
Image source: YouTube
The re-enactment happened as Cruz sat down in WMUR’s “Candidate Cafe.”
Watch Ted Cruz’s performance and note his impressions of Billy Crystal and Carol Kane.

Cruz’s reenactment was close, but not 100 percent perfect in terms of dialogue. However, the overall meaning and tone of the scene was spot on.

Commendable, but not perfect.
The exact quote is, "Except for a nice MLT. Mutton lettuce and tomato sandwich..."
Not, "Except for a nice mutton, lettuce and tomato salad...
Besides...who can't quote a scene from the Princess Bride? It is the most quotable movie ever. But hey, I pick nits.

Too funny.
The Billy Crystal was spot-on.

How many departments was it again? It was 5 departments - as well as 25 other bureaus and agencies. Cruz mistakenly said Commerce twice during the debate, instead of HUD. He had the right number of departments, but you know that, you are just trying to make something out of nothing.
So how many departments has Trump proposed eliminating? Exactly where has Trump suggested cutting the Federal behemoth?

You could have taken 5 seconds to Google your own question, but I'm guessing you just wanted to take an ignorant shot at Trump and hope nobody cared about facts. Look it up - Trump has suggested eliminating the Dept. of Education and the EPA. And don't lazily reply with "source please?" Get your fingers out of your mouth and search it yourself before asking a dumb question that makes you look like a foolish political hack
