"Lyin' Ted" may have met his match with CNN's Kaitlan Collins who refused to allow Cruz to play his usual game with the false equivalencies while trying to get a straight answer out of him on whether he'll be willing to accept the results of the 2024 election.
Cruz usually just steamrolls over anyone who isn't some friendly compliant interviewer like he finds on Fox or some of the other right-wing propaganda outlets. Good for Collins for standing her ground with him.
During an interview this Wednesday, Collins asked Cruz “You were the first senator to object to the votes. In 2024 will you certify the election results? Do you plan to object or will you accept the results regardless of who wins the election?”
Cruz shot back “So, Kaitlan, I gotta say, I think that’s actually a ridiculous question.”
After Collins replied that “It’s a yes or no question,” Cruz went on the attack, accusing her of never asking Democrats the same thing, and Collins countered that ridiculousness by rightfully taking apart the false equivalence.
Cruz responded that “We did have a peaceful transfer of power. I was there on January 20. I was there on the swearing-in," to which Collins replied "Barely."
