        Cruz is probably just trying to sound sensible for election season.

          And it's not Senator Ted Cruise's job to flee to Cancún when a snowstorm causes Texans to lose power...

            In all other things, sure. But I won't stick my nose up at an otherwise spineless person growing a small degree of structural fibrous cartilage against the Trump administration.

            After he stonewalls the FCC, then he can go fuck himself for everything else. Unless this amounts to no more than political posturing, in which case he is free to start at his earliest convenience.

                That's not what's happening here, he's not actually doing anything to obstruct any of the administration's plans, he's just a liar saying some shit into a reporter's microphone

                It's worse than useless because it somehow gives people the mistaken impression that Ted Cruz isn't and hasn't always been a giant piece of shit who would say or do anything for more power

                  Ted Cruz is a consummate piece of shit, but this is absolutely a stopped clock moment, because he’s absolutely correct on this one point.

                    Absolutely, but I also know that Trump is the sort of person who takes these offenses personally.

                    I'd never count on Ted Cruz to do the right thing when push comes to shove, but I'm hoping Trump thinks the walls are crumbling around him when even people like Rafael over there don't immediately fall in line behind him.

                    The two have had spats before, and maybe something like this could be Cruz's "Marjorie moment" where he loses the mandate of MAGA and the right fractures just a bit more.

                              Ted is likely positioning himself for another presidential run in 2028. Part of that involves making statements that are broadly popular. "The government shouldn't censor speech" is about the most non-controversial thing he could possibly say.

                                    Look I'm no fan of Ted, I don't like his politics and think he's a shitty human. However, he is a perfect example of a human fish monster.
