Ted Cruz is NOT A VICTIM. Let’s not encourage him to act like one by getting offended. His response was classy and very, very clever.
Cruz is real. He won’t be changing. What a magnificent confidence and sense of self.
His response left burn marks. Calmly stating, as a matter of fact, that a "serious journalist" asked some "silly questions" is a fire-and-brimstone condemnation. It attacks the root of Halperin's pretension of being anything other than a gossip columnist, and does so without anger, meanness, or hysteria.
