I mean I guess I can see how people like Cruz would see it as a cautionary tale about what happens when you stick it in crazy.

"Felon" is an insult rather than a term with a very specific meaning. [The More You Know star]

I renounce leftism because of what a sick burn this is.

Yeah he doesn't get enough credit for being every bit as craven in his pandering as Trump, likely because he sounds so rehearsed that it's easy to take it at face value. His nadir for me is still him talking about how he started listening exclusively to country music after 9/11.

"I specifically said no geeks."
"B-but my dad says I'm anointed like the Hebrew kings of old!"
"Next!"

Still less creepy than Mike Huckabee saying he wishes he could have pretended to be trans in high school to mess around in the girls' locker room.

ROBOT CAUCUS!!!!!!

I'm weirded out by the notion of Ted Cruz participating in an anti-McCarthyism parable, but also weirded out by the notion of him endorsing anything that's literally anti-witch trial.

It must be nice to have the result of people being intimidated by your intelligence be "they don't like you" rather than "you're under arrest because your clock is probably a bomb."

Also he's too gross to even endear himself to similarly gross people, like Trump has mastered. Even his speech patterns are irritating and condescending, like he thinks everyone he's talking to has brain damage.

LMAO look at this idiot below you's comment history.

Hi, Milo.

"Looking for Father's Day gifts? No, of course not, that would require knowing your father."

Tay ended up mercilessly dunking on repulsive Breitbart wingnut-welfare baby Milo Yiannopoulos so I am forced to concede she's a force for good.

You really owned the alternate-timeline AV Club for their hypocrisy.

Of course the Full Trojan is even cheaper.
