Ted Cruz: a world-class dick [View all]

There's a reason that Cruz is the most hated man in the U.S. Senate. His personality is unbearable to virtually every other human being he has ever come in contact with.

Those who knew him at college, (including his room mate), couldn't stand to be anywhere near him. He served in the G. W. Bush administration and no one else in that administration has anything good to say about him. And the other 99 Senators with whom he currently serves, loathe him.

How in the world does anyone come to be universally despised? (And how the hell did he ever get elected to the senate?)

Personality aside, Cruz's positions on virtually every issue are inhumane which belies his claim to being a "Christian." His "Christianity" doesn't allow for any opinion other than his own views. Added to this is his obnoxious way of forcing his personal opinions on everyone with whom he comes in contact.

There are no links here. Google "Ted Cruz hated" and spend a few moments reading about what others think of him. The bottom line is that, as unbearable as Trump is, Cruz is the more dangerous of the two. He believes his own propaganda.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but if someone held a gun to my head and forced me to choose between Trump and Cruz, I'd have to say Trump. Politics doesn't get any more ugly or horrible than this GOP primary.
