Ted CruzRafael (Ted) Edward Cruz Trump Speaks At CPAC In First Public Appearance Since Leaving White House Could Ted Cruz Overcome The Avalanche Of Criticism?

Andrew Cuomo Governors in Hot Water Over Their Coronavirus Response Media’s Flushing Promotion of Gov. Cuomo Looks Pretty Bad Now that Cancun Cruz Deserves to Be Dragged, But Selective Outrage from Media Is Painfully Clear (D), who has admitted a “mistake” in withholding data on coronavirus-related deaths from his state’s nursing homes.
“And now I’m in a little bit of hot water,” says Aidy Bryant’s Cruz. “What I’ve been told is something that no one in Texas has.”
Bryan’s Cruz then said that he “deeply regrets” his trip to Mexico, “especially flying with United.”
The legislator then apologizes, saying, “I’m pretty bad at human things.”
“Would a coward have it [guts] to blame his actions on his young daughters? ‘he asks.
Comedian Pete Davidson then joins the sketch showing Cuomo.
“Some people who died in nursing homes were not counted as deaths in nursing homes,” admits Davidson’s Cuomo. ‘It’s like what happens at Disney World. People die and they move bodies. They say ‘oh I think Brenda died in the parking lot and not in the teacups. ‘
Bryant’s Cruz then leans forward to pity and says that they are both “strong, misunderstood men.”
“Don’t associate yourself with me,” Cuomo tells Cruz.
“We’re not the same. I’m a man, you’re a clown. And if you mess with me, I’ll send you to a clown hospital. And if you die, I won’t count your body,” he added.
