She’s a confident young woman.

Yet another reminder that, no matter how much he wants it, or how hard he tries, Ted Cruz will remain a pale imitation of his idol.

That’s what misogynists and morons call women who assert their rights or are in an occupation or activity that they feel should be male-only.

Watched a documentary awhile back about ancient Rome’s Colosseum. Seating was made up in several tiers, with the best seats being closest to the arena. Social status determined where one was allowed to sit. The second worst seats (high up in the stadium) were for slaves. Worst seats (even higher) were for women. As far as attitudes, things haven’t improved much, I think.

What kind of elected official delights in name calling, and what kind of reporter thinks it’s newsworthy?

Right? “And now, getting back to the possibility of world war…”

Cruz is such a miserable troll; he lives for negative reaction. That is why Jen’s short and positive response was so spot on.

Peppermint Patty? Resourceful. Empathic. A leader. You’re a-okay with me, sir.

Since he regularly invokes Hitler and Stalin, Peppermint Patty does almost seem like a compliment.
Perhaps Cruz is secretly in love with Jen?

Not sure about his diet, but see below…

That’s an exercise in futility. Gotta look outside the Peanuts gallery.

I nominate ManPig by Jim Woodring:


He has the ethos of one who does horrible things off-screen…

Cruz does kind of have that “wah-wah-wah” sound when he talks, tho. :man_shrugging:

(like the adults in the TV specials)

I know he ate the booger. It’s something you can’t unsee.

I just don’t know about the sweat & grease content of the thing.
Cancun Cruz is the definition of smarmy.

I’ve seen it when he tries to channel Joe McCarthy. All that soup straight out of the can can’t help either.

ted Cruz when I think about it is synonymous with peanuts… the previously eaten variety.
