I've never trusted Cruz and remember him being a piece of shit during the 2016 RNC. He redeemed himself immensely in my eyes the last 3 years and the fact he actually objected yesterday made me feel as you did. I am not surprised he is saying this, he wants to save his own future now.
I really don't mind him disagreeing with things the president has said in the past but him claiming that Trump "crossed a line" yesterday bugs me. He could grow a thicker spine, you don't have to agree with everything Trump has ever said but don't start joining in on the lynch mob that is forming to blame the capitol event on Trump and impeach him. We will not forget that.
100% agree pede. Hell, I didn't always agree with everything Trump said or did. I did not agree on his rhetoric on bump stocks, I did not agree with his pump and dump of cash into the system, I thought that he was not hard enough on China and should have pushed to prove we were in a state of cyberwarfare with them, but in the end I was 100% behind him as our leader.
I have my doubts any of these assholes have even watched Trumps speech yesterday, they are simply relying on what they have read in the press. They were all in chambers while the speech happened.
Either way, at this point any politician trying to save a career rather then the nation is dead to me.
He did not withdraw an objection, his objection was to Arizona which lead to the 2 hour debate. The objection had to come from a house member and a senator, he signed on to object to Arizona and maintained it, he also objected to Pennsylvania with someone else. The objections were never going to overturn the certification and were largely symbolic but he did not withdraw his objection.

Cruz objected but then essentially withdrew it.
He is Lyin' Ted.

Guess I misremembered, but he still called our people terrorists.
