Ted Cruz hasnt made a lot of friends in the Republican Party, and that was even before he decided to run for president. Its no secret that he has clashed with other members of the GOP, and has no problem doing things that hurt the party like helping to orchestrate the government shutdown back in 2013.
This move was potentially disastrous for Republicans, and it made Ted Cruz a lot of enemies within the Republican Party, especially in Congress. It is no surprise then that U.S. Sen. Richard Burr from North Carolina is reported to have told some supporters at a private event that he would vote for Bernie Sanders instead of Ted Cruz, a comment his campaign now vehemently denies.
The story said, Cruz has become such a pariah that one of his colleagues, Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina, told supporters at a campaign fundraiser
that he would vote for liberal Sen. Bernie Sanders for president before Cruz, according to one person who attended the event.
Burr did not appear to be joking, said the person, who demanded anonymity to discuss the private gathering, the article stated.
