"Cruz went to Princeton, Harvard, and Cancun briefly." Savage.

[nelizk]

He did go to Princeton, and Harvard, and briefly to Cancun .... That's one of the best Brian Williams burns ever!

[Tiago-]

Brian Williams' words are much more blunt than I would have expected and I approve.

[albertdaniel]

Any man that let's another man call his wife a dog and do nothing is the last person I would go into battle with 👣🇺🇸🕶✔

When they show you who they are, believe them. It isn't a complicated thing.

"Remember as you watch this just how much Ted Cruz dreams of being president of a country someday, perhaps not this country... " it's The Shade for me.

This man man has NO SHAME...Its not a lapse in judgment.

"Cruz never served. But he did go to Princeton and Harvard Law School, and briefly to Cancun."

I can’t help but to feel sorry for his family. To have a weasel like him as the head of your household has to be traumatic.

“There are 2 kinds of people in the US Senate. Those who hate Ted Cruz and those who are called Ted Cruz.” Another great Brian Williams quote

Brian Williams’ sarcasm and dry wit is boss. 😂👏

I'm a blond Canadian Airforce girl. Guess what I do for the Airforce? Paperwork. I make sure soldiers get paid properly, get all their allowances, benefits, training bonuses... There is a lot more to the military than muscle.

To think... this man has daughters. I wonder how they would feel knowing he thinks they are anything less than capable.

[GirlCode]

I have run out of disparaging adjectives to describe Ted Cruz.

“Why do people take such an instant dislike to Ted Cruz? It just saves time.”
The New York Times
