Last night Ted Cruz went on CNN Chris Cuomo’s show and mopped the floor Cuomo in a combative interview from beginning to end.
Watch:
This interview is another reminder why most Republicans just don’t go on CNN. Cuomo was a horses ass from the beginning, mocking Cruz for not giving the answer he liked and attacking him over and over.
But Cruz didn’t shy away from Cuomo at all and hit back hard, at one point saying “there was a time when CNN actually cared about being journalistic and talking about facts. Donald Trump broke you guys. Your entire network now is how much you hate Trump.”
Cruz also went after Cuomo for just attacking Republicans states on COVID when his own brother ran a state with the worst death rate of the entire country. In fact Cruz even brought up how his brother’s own Nursing Home policy killed thousands of seniors. Cuomo didn’t like it and protested that Cruz was making it personal. But honestly, that was a bunch of garbage from Cuomo because he had his brother on his show all summer and never held him to account for any of this. Instead he created enormous cotton-swabs to mock his brother for having a big nose.
Indeed, Janice Dean even tweeted Cruz this morning, thanking him for calling out Cuomo, saying “Thank you @tedcruz for literally being the only person that has EVER brought this up to @ChrisCuomo after all the unethical interviews he did with his brother @NYGovCuomo.”
There’s a lot more in the full interview, which you can watch above. I look forward to reading your thoughts on it.
