Yesterday CNN reporter Manu Raju ran to Twitter to complain that Ted Cruz wouldn’t answer his question:
Tried to ask Ted Cruz if he defends Trump conduct on Ukraine, and if Trump call with Zelensky was “perfect.” He said: “You asked a question last night let me let someone else ask a question.” Then @npfandos asked the same question, he ignored it. He took one other q, then split

Ted Cruz responded to Raju last night, explaining why he wouldn’t answer Raju’s question:
Manu, in your pissing fight w/ @MarthaMcSally EVERY GOP Senator agreed you were the MOST partisan/unfair Cap Hill reporter. Rather than address problem, CNN top brass “released the hounds” on McSally. Your Qs aren’t hard, but when you’re obnoxious, we answer other reporters’ Qs. https://t.co/5v6ID0NRJh

Boom. This is what Raju gets for being a whiny partisan hack for a reporter.
Cruz was on fire last night. He also mocked an MSNBC contributor in a separate exchange, who protested Cruz’s humor about the redundant impeachment arguments of House Democrats:
Hour 23 of redundant impeachment arguments. For those following at home: Drinking game—every time House Dems say “drug deal” or “get over it”…drink a shot of milk!

Impeachment is not a game. National security is not a game. Presidential solicitation of foreign interference to facilitate cheating in an election is not a game. https://t.co/O0L68xn87U
