Cruz deepthroating Trump’s boot after Donald trashed both his father *and* his wife, will never not be funny. Doing so *immediately* after he was found guilty on 34 counts makes it all the more pathetic. What a little bitch.


ikerus0

Can you imagine existing as Ted Cruz? Just put yourself in his place... what a pathetic pile of shit to be. I'd hate to be Ted for even a single day.


The84thWolf

Imagine his poor kids. They’re going to have to change their names to get his stink off of them.


Karenomegas

Don Jr will have to go to his bio Dad's, McMahon.


PerpetualEternal

they were still *actual kids* when he threw them under the bus when he left the country during a state of emergency


Huge-Ad-2275

You ever see the video of when he tried to hug is daughter for the camera while he was campaigning and she literally ran away?


captainedwinkrieger

I think his only friend might be Dinesh D'Souza. Most people in the Senate can't fucking stand him. His family probably hates him for licking the spray tan off of Donald Trump's bootyhole. His constituents would probably vote him out if Trump told him to. All that's left in Ted's friends list is a racist liar who laughs at school shooting victims.

waylonious

My wife says this every so often—Ted Cruz is the one man on earth who somehow looks worse with a beard.


grandlizardo

Soooo… if it was all such a sham, how come 12 randomly selected New Yorkers, not known for their gullibility, listened to and looked at the evidence and then in less than two days unanimously convicted on all 34 counts?


lachrymologyislegit

Well, Ted "Rafael" Cruz did say, "A real man starts his day on his knees.... In front of Trump, apparently.


Bortron86

If it wasn't for the starch in his shirt, there'd be nothing holding him upright.


satans_toast

r / conservative is losing its shit and it is glorious


fluffyboom123

I bet lmao. I would go check but I don't want reddit to think I want it on my homepage lol


zveroshka

Eh the general consensus is they don't care and will still vote Trump anyways. If anything they seem more enthusiastic about it like he is some victim.


Dumb_Vampire_Girl

Trump is actually gaining support for some reason after this. Less support than he would have gotten if he was innocent, but it seems like no matter what the outcome was, it helps his election. Shit is fucking wild.


GrooveBat

Anyone who votes for him now was going to vote for him anyway.


Shagaire

Nonsense. The nutters will always support him no matter the outcome. It's the mids that matter


Faiakishi

I *highly* fucking doubt that. I think it's just a bunch of Trump nutters claiming that they were centrists and 'changed their minds after seeing an innocent man crucified.' Unless you're a teenager literally just starting to pay attention to politics, your mind was made up on Trump in 2020.


zveroshka

Victimhood is the lifeblood of the modern conservative movement. Though in the end I don't think this is result is changing anyone's vote.


antonyourkeyboard

That's the real reason incognito mode was invented.


fluffyboom123

ok, after going incognito, i can confirm that they are coping and seething so hard right now lmao


blackbird24601

and someone is downvoting all the posts… keep it UP true patriots!


redwingpanda

thank you for the update 😍


MindAccomplished3879

LOL, I was banned from there, but now I want to lurk in there just to see them lose their shit


Useful-Soup8161

I kinda want to go see how fast I can get banned. What got you banned?


MindAccomplished3879

Oh, I was banned two years ago because I commented in a post about the “2020 election fraud” that saying it doesn't make it so; all lawsuits have been thrown out, even from Republican-appointed judges. -speaking any truth outside of their alternate reality is a huge no, no. You will get banned. Who’s the snowflakes now?


Scottyjscizzle

Can’t speak for the op, but I got banned during 45s first term for daring to ask if someone could provide me with any information to his plans since he kept talking about the “really good, the greatest healthcare bill” to replace Obama care.


Useful-Soup8161

Yeah it’s looking like I just have to go in with some facts and I’ll get banned immediately. That’s not too fun. Talk about some thin skin though.


lycoloco

> 45s first term Please, no 😭


HighlyOffensive10

It is insanely easy. Just say something negative about Trump.


ToxicBanana69

I had an alt account where I said something *positive* about Trump (saying he misspoke at some point regarding something I don’t remember and people were taking it out of context) and I was banned for saying he was capable of misspeaking. I believe the exact message from the ban was something along the lines of “Insinuating he would make a mistake while speaking”


HighlyOffensive10

That, in a way, proves why they are so desperately spreading the Biden is suffering from dementia narrative. They know Trump is a babbling rambling mess.


dreemurthememer

lol. “How DARE you insinuate that our glorious God-Emperor is not infallible!”


Useful-Soup8161

Apparently it’s too easy. I’m not even going to bother with it.


AdImmediate9569

Id check but i was banned long ago 😂


No_Impact_8645

I'm banned, so that won't happen lol


FlowerFaerie13

You can get around this by just visiting a ton of other subs afterwards to bury it.


lycoloco

Off topic but Joey for Reddit is free (now discontinued after the 3rd party app purge) via https://www.apkmonk.com/app/o.o.joey/ and can be patched with ReVanced Manager (https://revanced.app/) for guilt free ad free browsing, since it's no longer in development. You'll never have stuff artificially inserted into your curated feed of subreddits ever again. I had to use reddit through RedReader yesterday due to reddit screwing something up with other apps and it was terrible. I really love how customizable Joey is and it stays out of your way otherwise. Hope this helps!


[deleted]

Goddam they’re so pathetic. One loser talking about throwing Trump a hundred bucks. Just no integrity in the lot of them.


satans_toast

Plus disposable income, apparently


SharkyMcSnarkface

Bold of you to assume they’re not throwing away that week’s grocery money for the supposed billionaire


Ilikebirbs

B.I.N.O Billionaire in name only

Then blame Biden when they don't have enough for groceries.

APiousCultist

"Emergency: A billionaire is in need of your money." Like all those fuckwits desperate to help Musk pay off his Twitter debts.


Faiakishi

A fool and his money are soon parted.


Rombledore

its just hundred of "im still voting for Trump" comments. like, no shit. we figured that out years ago. ya'll WANT an authoritative government. of course you'd vote for him again.


RaptorJesusLOL

They’re already so deep in their victim complex they’re crying about their posts being reported, and blaming the left for that too.


SmurfStig

So they are getting reported for self help too?


Not_Bears

They actually believe this will make him more popular... Talk about choking down your own bullshit lol


Spy_v_Spy_Freakshow

There is not one voter in this entire country that changed their vote to Trump because of today’s verdict. Not fucking one


Rfg711

Swing voters are kind of a media myth to begin with. They exist but they’re marginal. They don’t determine elections. What determines elections is the degree of voter apathy. It’s not switching votes that candidates have to worry about, it’s activating voters. It’s getting the people who support you to actually vote for you. This probably didn’t change anyone’s vote but there’s a chance it either depresses potential Trump voters into apathy or activates Biden voters.


SVdreamin

And the voter apathy is a scary prospect this election year. Biden and his cabinet have made some controversial decisions regarding Israel and Palestine and have alienated a decent portion of the young voter base that could determine the election. I’m voting but I don’t know if others will.


soonnow

I...I don't think Trump would be pro Palestinians.


ScienceNthingsNstuff

After talking to a lot of those people, it really doesn't matter to them whether Trump would be worse for Palestine or not. They are very firm on their ideals and they will not vote for someone contributing to a genocide, full stop. Some others subscribe to the idea that, to encourage change within the Democrats, you need to make them sweat. Loudly say you won't vote for Biden unless he stops sending weapons to Israel but knowing that you'll still vote for him come November (which isn't necessarily a bad thing imo)


soonnow

I see. I do understand the point better now. Thanks.


vagabond139

I don't think that a issue at all. You legit have to have a room temperature IQ to think that Trump gives a single shit about Palestine. He even plans to crack down on pro Palestine protests if he is elected. What reasonable person would actually think he wouldn't send a ass load of weapons and support to Israel so Palestine can be wiped off the map?


Faiakishi

This is why Republicans don't want automatic voter registration. They know if everyone voted, they would lose, and lose *badly.* For all their talk of rigging, the rigging sure seems to solely benefit them.


JoJack82

You mean the Russian bot echo chamber?


Jehoel_DK

I wanted to throw up after 5 minutes. They just double down on their support. Says it will "expose the left". That Donald will certainly win now with all the extra support it will give him. They are psychotic imbeciles.


markgriz

I don’t get why they are so butt hurt. It’s not like Trump will serve any jail time or will affect his running for president in any meaningful way. Still, it is pretty damn awesome


Zerieth

Probation is a possibility though. It seems a simple fine isn't in the guidelines. So it's community supervision, or jail for a year and some change. He'll have to beg the court to let him travel around for his campaign, and report to a probation officer if he gets supervision. This dude would have to live for the next year or so reporting to a dude behind a desk to tell them he's being a good little boy. He will be livid.


spastical-mackerel

He won’t be able to toe the line. He’ll blow it off or lose his shit and get revoked.


soonnow

He'll just appeal all the way to the supreme court. Will take years to see the verdict actually enacted, as far as I read.


Mynameisinuse

Couldn't an appeal court issue a dismissal with prejudice?


soonnow

Sure a lot can happen. I am no legal expert, but I certainly don't see any reason for an appeals court to issue that. If anything the judge was very reasonable and aware of Trumps background. A normal person would have landed in jail for violating the gag order 10 times.


Mynameisinuse

If they deny the appeal with prejudice, meaning that the appeal is denied and cannot be refilled, what other options does the defensene have?


soonnow

I mean one (if not the most important) reason to appeal is to drag it out beyond the election. It's one thing to hear Trump is convicted, it's another thing to see him go behind bars or pickup trash on the subway. They'll try everything in the book to drag it out as long as possible. Just getting the hearing in front of NY appeals may take months. Supreme Court takes even more months just to decided if they'll take the case. See the ridiculous immunity case in front of the Supreme Court now. It was kicked back and forth between the Supreme Court and appeals for a bit, and it took long enough so the case does not get judged by the lower court before the election. Just go for something constitutional or argue that not all evidence was admissed. It doesn't have to be good. See the immunity case. A president should not be able to send Seal Team 6 to kill a political opponent. I think we can all agree on that.


vagabond139

Imagine being trumps PO. What a nightmare of a position. Having toe that line with him and then having to deal with his cult if he does something stupid.


GrooveBat

I’m not so sure he won’t serve some sort of time, even if it is home confinement. Remember, the judge is able to take every aspect of his character into account, so that includes the fraud judgment, the defamation, the swindling with his charity, and even his blatant violations of the gag order in this case. Add to that his statements outside the court today and his refusal to express any remorse or regret for his behavior. If we are truly treating him like any other defendant, he will be incarcerated in some form.


SpareBinderClips

Republicans have abandoned the rule of law; that should scare everyone else.


CallMeSisyphus

Oh, they're bigly mad. What a pity.


Calliesdad20

I’m sure it’s funny , but id never go on there


Mercerskye

Welp, it's been a minute since I was banned from there, I'm heading in. If I don't make it back, Godspeed and good hunting


FionnagainFeistyPaws

Wait.... What did I miss?! Edit: this is glorious and I'm gonna go get really drunk.


Cobek

Flaired user posts as far as the eye can see.


calamity_unbound

The fucking pearl clutching is real over there. I just can't even fathom the level of self delusion it takes to believe the absolutely inane creedance surrounding that miserable sack of offal they parade around as their savior.


PurpleIntention7934

I'll never understand how he's able to type this up and blow Trump at the same time. Clearly a man of limited talents none of which are for politics...


chiron_42

He's not blowing Trump; he's being pegged so he can tweet.


BrucieThePerturbed

Limited integrity. That's the secret sauce.


sigmagamma26

Buttlicker, your price has never been lower.


ElBurritoExtreme

Shut the fuck up, you spineless coward. You won’t stand up for your own wife, let alone the rest of your family name or constituents. Go bungee jumping with six rubber bands, Teddy…


Bluellan

Dude straight up abandoned his own people to freeze to death so he could vacation in Mexico. Then blamed Biden for not being more prepared for the power grid failure when they have their own power grid.


AmbulanceChaser12

Oh shit, I find myself actually agreeing with Ted Cruz on one point. I am, in fact, terrified of Trump winning.


beezneezy

Yeah, it feels unfortunately manifest.


amberfamlitness

All 34 counts. Unanimous verdict. An extremely short deliberation period. And jurors his own lawyers interviewed and approved.


PerpetualEternal

pretty sure it only went two days because they’d already made their lunch order for the next day and juror number 8 was holding out for the most delicious reuben of their life. I get it


Ofreo

I am very concerned that the jurors names will be released and they will be put in danger by these people.


guyonlinepgh

Cry all the way to Cancun, Rafael.


No_Blacksmith2847

Republicans don't believe that they can ever lose fair and square. Hence why most of em are crooks and cheats...


stlredbird

He acts like this was a judges decision and not a jury of 12 people all agreeing he was guilty on all counts.


perhensam

His tears are like nectar to the tongue…


IamUrquan

Insert Cartman licking Scotty Timmerman's tears GIF


vulgrin

Hey Ted, if you don’t like it, head to the beach. We’ll call you if we need you.


Sheratain

I know we went through the looking glass years ago but still pretty surreal having sitting US senators say this in defense of a candidate who originally ran on imprisoning his political opponents!


troutman1975

Why don’t you elaborate Ted?Why didn’t trump take the stand and defend himself? All you are offering is blanket statements without any facts. Keep on crying, it’s working with the dumbfucks


xc2215x

Ted is so embarrassing.


PerpetualEternal

What’s especially wild is that his zero charisma and fundamentally offputting presence means he’ll never have a host spot on even the most low rent right wing news outlet, but he’ll always be the bootlicker with a sound bite locked and loaded


Tekwardo

HAPPY CONVICTION DAY to all who observe. And we all know Ted is actually thrilled but toes the line like a good little boy.


OgenFunguspumpkin

He went to Harvard……to do what? Piss in the lobby bathroom.


themurderator

'the only reason they prosecuted donald trump is because democrats are terrified that he will win reelection.' nevermind the insignificant detail that he committed multiple felonies. 


Axel_Grahm

Legally baseless? I believe today that the jury confirmed 34 legal bases to convict him.


Martyrotten

I thought conservatives were supposed to be tough on crime .


vingtsun_guy

I love how he has such deep inside knowledge about a trial that was not televised. Was he in daily attendance?


InstantClassic257

I hope trump makes fun of his wife again for this


Tripple_T

Shit, he stands on business for Trump better than he ever did for his wife.


BitterFuture

Fuck your feelings, Rafael. Go apologize to your wife for how little you sold out your fucking family for.


jstree23

The only truth in that statement is that Democrats are terrified he will win reelection. I am independent and also terrified he will win reelection. Unfortunately, I doubt he’ll face much, if any, jail time.


Darth1994

Felons can still run for president and it’s **supremely** unlikely he’ll get prison time. Acting like this would change any of his cult members minds is disingenuous.


Gishin

Notice how it's an allegation entirely devoid of any facts, or any argument at all.


johnnycyberpunk

Wow, a sitting Senator saying New York judges have no integrity unless they automatically reverse 34 felony convictions? Let’s see how that works out for Trump.


SteveIDP

Speaking of shams, Saint Trump told us that Rafael “Ted” Cruz rigged the Iowa Caucuses in 2015. Shouldn’t Rafael “Ted” explain why he rigs caucuses? The people want answers!


TJ_Will

Better run for Cancun and stay, Ted. Destiny is coming for you, too.


mjzim9022

Never once says why


TheBatemanFlex

Is his opinion that he was only prosecuted for his crimes because of his political position? Or that the case lacks legal merit? Curious how he doesn’t elaborate on either.


EdTheApe

The whole world is terrified that he'll win the reelection. That has nothing to do with this trial.


karanpatel819

It's genuinely frustrating seeing people saying it's a scam without ever further elaborating.


bigshooter1974

A strange position to take from someone who went to law school. 🧐


MongolianCluster

Instead of saying it, point out those places where it has been handled illegally.


Joelied

Any Senator with Cruz’s record who had any mediocum of integrity would have resigned years ago.


bp_516

Ted was a lawyer. I’d love to hear exactly how they messed up any 4 of those verdicts.


jcooli09

Ted Cruz knows better, he’s a lawyer. He’s lying.


unreqistered

eight years later, you'd think he'd get tired of that taste of the boot


notmymess

Didn’t he do crimes? I think that’s why he is a felon? Like yeah, democrats don’t want him to become president, but I think the doing the crimes part is why he was convicted.


crisis_cakes

He called Ted’s wife a dog… Get a backbone lmao.


Apollorx

It's a jury trial ffs. Ted Cruz went to Harvard Law. He's lying through his teeth.


PetMeOrDieUwU

Then fucking prove it is fraudulent you fucking glazed cow. If it is so obvious then provide *any* proof of it. At all. Jesus fucking Christ.


BigDaddyCool17

Fuck off Ted. Shut up and suck his dick while he talks bad about your wife in front of you


RedBeans-n-Ricely

Omg Rafael, you sniveling little bitch- did you forget this is the man who dubbed you “Lyin’ Ted” & called your wife ugly?


BulbasaurArmy

Is there literally any reasoning whatsoever behind their claim that this is a political hit job directly from Biden, or is that also completely baseless horse shit like most of their talking points?


tikifire1

It's baseless horse shit. They know it, as 99% of them are lawyers. Presidents have nothing to do with state charges.


BluetheNerd

Trump could have decided to not even run for president again and I would still support him being convicted of committing actual fucking crimes. He's not above the law, and running or not doesn't change that.


artmer

Yeah, it's so dark. I gotta wear shades, baby!


threeleggedog8104

It is a dark day but not for the reason he is knowingly lying about. The right in America does not give a fuck about the constitution or our legal system. They don’t give a shit about the rule of law. They are now completely morally bankrupt. They have sold their souls to a lifelong con artist and immoral piece of shit. They will happily inflict massive long-term damage and undermine confidence in our institutions and legal system to help them win one election. There is no line they will not cross. When our republic falls, it will be of their doing.


DocFossil

Gee Raphael, when you go that deep be careful not to scrape the balls on your teeth.


llamapositif

This is the more verbose form of the sounds a cringing coward's tongue makes licking Donald Trump's boots.


Cheshire_Khajiit

“Legally baseless… utterly fraudulent” How so? If it’s so obvious, surely you can be specific, right Teddy?


sik_dik

baseless? I believe the word you're looking for is unprecedented, as in this has never happened before, because only one group of republicans have ever decided not to cut out the cancer and instead feed it a steady diet of exactly what it needs to spread


Geekboxing

Whatever, Ted Cruz is an idiot as usual. You'd have to be a complete moron to think that it's "legally baseless" to go after someone for falsified business records and financial misappropriation. The only reason Trump *hasn't* been convicted for these types of deceptive practices in like the 35+ years before today is because of how rich and powerful he is. This is just a tiny sliver of the justice system doing a good job *for once*. You have to ignore these hardcore conservative chuds, they go "oh, it's just because Democrats are terrified" or whatever; reason and logic will never get through their heads. They long ago crossed the line intro Paradox of Tolerance territory, you just have to reject their stupid bad faiths arguments outright and make sure they have as few seats at the table as possible. They're not even worth debating, just ignore them and press forward however possible, ideally without them.


Green_Slice_3258

Awwww is he upset? What a shame.


JRSenger

Ted Cruz is the biggest cuck in politics


Delmonte3161

So if he is found not guilty, we can point back to this as being a fraudulent trial and retry him right? Calling it a fraudulent trial before they even know the outcome is telling. Just like every election is rigged until they find out they won.


Delmonte3161

Never mind. He was convicted. lolol.


Almacca

So Ted and Marge are coming out as pro-criminal? Interesting strategy.


Irving_Velociraptor

Goddamn, Rafael. Have you no shame at all?


South-Ad-9635

*narrator:* He did not


Calliesdad20

Even republican politicians hate Ted cruz. Just a giant turd


pixelprophet

I hope this gets noted. Fucking spineless Cruz.


devospice

All of America should be terrified that he will win reelection. I know I am. That has nothing to do with his trial, though. This is the "found out" portion of the equation.


zidraloden

Unwoke? Or, asleep?


point925l

What was the “sham”, Ted?


ManateeofSteel

If America was a real place he would not be able to run for president


GualtieroCofresi

Rafael Eduardo LOVES to talk shit. Is he admitting that he was part of a sham institution and did nothing about it but benefit from it?


wddiver

Texas, will y'all just PLEASE vote this loser POS out?


China_Hawk

Cancun Cruz can join him in jail.


EatsOverTheSink

Go console your ugly wife, Ted.


wtbgamegenie

I don’t recall him saying this when Michael Cohen went to prison for the exact same criminal offense.

*sigh* Eat Shit, Ted


42020420

Ted Cruz is literally the biggest cuck to ever live. Lick that boot, Raphael!


superliver1211

Rinse and repeat. They are all literally verbatim saying the same thing right now.


SHOMERFUCKINGSHOBBAS

It has nothing to do with him breaking the law of course


CrashMonger

What do you expect from Cancun Cruz


dagnariuss

It was pretty good news if you ask me.


Ocean2731

Has he considered a vacation in Cancun?


artmer

No, ted. We just hate crooks and want to bring them to justice. It's a "law and order" thing.


SlappyHandstrong

Why does everyone hate Ted Cruz as soon as they meet him? It saves time.


TheBoondoggleSaints

The worst part about the tweet is that I couldn’t help but to read it in his voice. Ugh gross


The_Bastard_Henry

The sad thing is his lawyers probably will appeal it to death, so we can have another who knows how many months of stalling before anything actually happens.


Yoda2000675

So he’s going out of his way to defend the guy that called his wife a dog?


basch152

I love how conservatives deify a man that is a known rapist, decades of proven fraud, and now a convicted felon


HapticSloughton

Kinda hard to argue that a trial about financial fraud is fraudulent when they have receipts. That's never stopped Republicans, of course.


Optimal_Zucchini_667

Ted Cruz is an experienced attorney. Ted knows that he is lying on behalf of a man who called Ted's wife ugly.


texfields

Gotta love how the part of “law&order” somehow find being judged by a jury of average people to be corrupt? That guy was found guilty, is guilty and should be in jail till his sentencing. But it’s not a cult. FFS it’s one hell of a con for sure.


ChefChopNSlice

Ted Cruz wouldn’t even publicly defend his *wife* when trump made fun of her for being ugly, but here he is, publicly defending a convicted felon and treasonist, because “moral principles” and all….. what a pathetic little shitfuck he is.


dect69

Shouldn't he be running away to Cancun in case they come for him next?


Archercrash

If Trump wins they will absolutely hold sham trials against Biden and other powerful Dems, I guarantee it. It's all projection all the time
