Someone was huffing something strong to come up with that.

Cruz is the most objectionable candidate on the GOP side - none of his colleagues can stand him. He rubs everyone the wrong way. At least Paul and Santorum knew how to work the system.

But both those nuts were incapable of being extreme enough for the 2016 GOP. That’s the real problem. Their extremist positions just weren’t extreme enough and they couldn’t go far enough in the GOP where people like Trump and Cruz have staked out positions.

Cruz does have some Congresspeople backing him. Granted it’s assholes from the hilariously named Freedom Caucus but he does have some Congressional backing.
