Rep. Peter King (R., N.Y.) has never been shy about expressing his loathing for Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas), and he was at it again Tuesday on Morning Joe, saying he hated Cruz and would take cyanide if he become the Republican nominee.
Co-host Willie Geist read out a quote from King in which he said any New Yorkers who thought of voting for Cruz in Tuesday’s primary should “have their head examined.”
“What happens tonight on the Republican side? How big does Donald Trump win?” Geist asked.
“First of all, in case anybody is confused, I am not endorsing Ted Cruz,” King said. “I hate Ted Cruz, and I think I’ll take cyanide if he ever got the nomination.”
The Morning Joe panel roared with laughter.
King added he thought the polls would bear out and Trump would win handily in New York, although he added he voted for Ohio Gov. John Kasich.

Go ahead, punk. Make my day.
Sometimes, freshmen who come in all highfalutin with their voter’s issues in mind can really piss off the staunch aristocrats.
Would almost make it worth nominating him.
Pete you’re just saying that to make us feel better...
Promise?
Sorry, Mr King, but the only candidates I would consider taking cyanide before I vote for them are Clinton and Sanders. The concept of lesser of the evils applies when considering Republican candidates. Suicide only applies when only choice is a Democrat.
Even more reason to vote for Cruz!
One good reason to vote for Cruz
promises, promises. like all them lefties who promised to leave the country if GWB got elected?
LOL! If King is supporting Trump by logic on this forum that means Trump is the GOPe insider.
King starts every day by licking his index finger, and holding it high in the air.
King is the d-bag of all d-bags, a RAT-RINO Uniparty loser who is doing his masters’ bidding. Cruz or Trump are far preferable to anything else the Uniparty is offering, including “Hothead John” Kasich, who likely is King’s wet dream.
I don’t think the Peter King (although bad) cancels out Romney and Graham. Although it is pretty close.
NYC values, whattaya expect?

I think it amazing that so many folks truly believe Trump is the “outsider” candidate. He’z been playing politics, slinging $$$ around to buy influence for decades.
Even Harry Reid indicated it wouldn't hurt his feelings to see Trump president. That ought to tell ya something.
Reid, Nevada, Vegas, developers, organized crime. All peas in a pod.
Never liked King, but I also don’t like anyone to say such things. That’s just crazy talk and uncalled for.
Well, bless your little heart.
Isn’t King pretty thickly entwined with that Silver crook rep?
Yes, King is just teasing us.
