I’ll never get why Texans vote for him. Besides being literally disgusting, besides an arse-licking coward who tosses his own family members under the bus, besides not having any colleagues who’ll work with him, besides his abandoning his constituents in the middle of a disaster, the slimy slug can’t even clear the minimal GOP bar of “owning the libs”. Every time he tries to emulate Joe McCarthy he falls flat on his smug face.
I get why Gohmert gets votes; other mouth-breathing ignoramuses take hope from his success and identify with him. But who would want to identify with Ted Cruz? I still have no idea what he delivers to those who keep voting for him.
