Ted Cruz urged to apologize for attacks against Mitch McConnell (by John Cornyn)

Texans need to clean out the Cornyn rubbish.

Indeed. But Cornyn is very adept at the Hatch Gambit, wherein the alleged conservative returns home to campaign full of righteous pieties about Constitution and Country and then, after securing yet another term from the gulled voters, returns to the salons of DC to be swaddled again in the warm embrace of their fellow uniParty members.

Do you mean this Ted Cruz?

[Political Junkie Too]

Calling out McConnell is what defined Cruz. Apologize, and he loses what made him.

How about this for a Cruz apology; “I am very sorry that you are lickspittles to the RINO Senator McConnell!’?

[Arthur McGowan]

Cruz should apologize! The support of the establishmend will be the Kiss of Death.

[showme_the_Glory]

Cornyn POS. STFU.

[detective]

“Senior Senate Republicans are calling on Sen. Ted Cruz to rebuild his strained relationships with his colleagues and apologize to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell before the party establishment considers consolidating behind his presidential bid.”

This is the first step to humiliate Senator Cruz and make him subservient to the establishment. Cruz will need to promise to obey the GOPe and abandon the American people.

Don't do it. Sit there with the gavel as president pro-temp of the Senate as V.P. and smile during the swearing in ceremonies you will preside over.

Trump/Cruz...scorched earth...leave no establishment links to the party alive.

Cornyn is one of the biggest jerks in Congress! I hope Cruz doesn’t bow to the pressure. I always saw Cruz as a bigger man than Cornyn.

[austinaero]

It would be completely different if the establishment via Cornyn was saying “Ted, apologize or we will back your campaign!” Then an apology might be worth considering just to keep those schmucks away!

[kidd]

Ted Cruz: “I’m sorry that Mitch McConnell is largely responsible for making a reality TV star into the leading candidate for president”

[SecondAmendment]

Looks like I will be shopping for a new senator when Cornyn is up for re-election ...

[Jane Long]

Head fake favor by Cornball Cornyn. Similar to the W Bush “I don’t like Cruz” comment.

No sale.

[unlearner]

Cruz: “I am sorry for breaking decorum on the senate floor. McConnell should be praised for resisting pressure from Obama to appoint a liberal Supreme Court justice to replace Scalia.”

Saves face. Fair. Accurate.

[Thorliveshere]

He’s better off without their support.

[WyCoKsRepublican]

Cruz owes Turtle-Face absolutely nuttin’

[ManHunter]

Why, because McConnell is so friggin’ popular with rank-and-file Republicans? I can hear it now: “I was lying, Senator McConnell’s not a liar.”

[ModelBreaker]

Washington D.C. Where you MUST apologize for telling the truth.

[i_robot73]

Up the ante: I’m truly sorry Senator McConnell, like our esteemed colleagues, from across the aisle, Senator Reid and Pelosi, is a liar.

[SharpRightTurn]

Hey, Cornball—here’s a better idea: tell McConnell to apologize for lying to Cruz.
