Cruz: 'Tom Brady was framed' by Hillary

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) poked fun at Hillary Clinton's use of private email by suggesting she was responsible for the New England Patriots' under-inflated footballs.

"Let me start by saying — Tom Brady was framed," the presidential candidate said during a weekend stop in Massachusetts. "Now I'm not willing to pander on much, but on that ... Tom Brady was framed."

"And I will say this: I have it on good authority that Hillary Clinton did it. Why do you think she deleted her emails?" Cruz joked.

has lamer or more dated jokes that Ted Cruz.

One way you can tell that you'll never hear a decent joke from someone is that after he fires one off he either laughs at it himself or pauses and looks around waiting for a reaction that never comes. This moron does both of those at the same time everytime, and yet he's too damned stupid to figure it out for himself. Sadly nobody around him has the stones to tell him that he's an idiot.

Many Sanders supporters say that Bernie is attracting Republican voters.

Sure he is. They are just hoping he gets the nomination so they can destroy him in the GE

and MA would still hate him. With good reason, because he's a smarmy, childish anarchist who's never been told "no" in his life.

MA people are smart and liberal and can see through bullshit quite well. (Except maybe some of their sports team fans but hey most sports team fans are like that.)
