GOP rep. spills the beans about Ted Cruz: 'I don't know if Cruz has any friends'
Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) suggested that, behind the scenes, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) did not have any true friends in Washington, D.C.
During an interview this week on the Sources Say podcast, host Juliegrace Brufke asked Crenshaw about his recent loss in the Texas primary.
"I guess I'm taking it well," the bitter lawmaker insisted, "but it's never how you want to go out. You don't want to go out on these people's terms. And who are these people? I mean, the online ankle biters that have been trying to take me down for years, and they don't even know why."
"So this, this election was a, was like a real insight into, you know, like smear campaigns have always been part of politics, but smear campaigns in the digital era. [They] are pretty different. And they're especially different for somebody who has high name ID like I do. And so high name ID, Saturday Night Live, and all that," he continued. "And, it's like, let's go RINO hunting. You know, the Democrats don't have a term like that, but the Republicans do. That's been going on for years and years and years."
Crenshaw pointed to Cruz as the "source" of his problem.
"I think the source of a lot of it is Senator Cruz," he revealed. "I mean, that's been obvious to me for years. Years and years and years, that's been obvious to me. He just finally pulled his mask off. Maybe he'll look better now."
Brufke chuckled at the joke.
"Why did you laugh?" Crenshaw asked. "That was so mean. Are you saying he doesn't — anyway. You laughed. I didn't laugh. You laughed."
"He's just, I don't know if Cruz has any friends," he added. "You know, I mean, like, the only, the only obvious reasoning is like, you know, he always viewed me as a threat, like a primary threat at some point."
