What a spectacular lack of empathy. Cruz is the embodiment of callous Republican policies and attitudes, and the resulting image is an absolute slime of a man. His million dollar family vacation is surely not paid out of his senator's salary -- officially only $174,000 a year. But, of course, if a senator avoids such petty qualms as morals and insider trading regulations, they stand to make far, far more than six digits. It's obvious that Cruz takes some kind of honor in being a part of this corrupt class. Perhaps he's trying out the Trump tactic of wearing his crimes on his sleeves in the hope that his shamelessness will inspire others to ignore his misdeeds. If so, Ted Cruz, you're out of luck, because everyone is keeping score. |
