Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said that his fellow GOP senators lambasted him for threatening to filibuster gun control reform, Politico reports.
Said Cruz: “They said, ‘Listen, before you did this the politics of this were great — the Dems were the bad guys, the Republicans were the good guys. Now we all look like a bunch of squishes.’ Well, there is an alternative — you could just not be a bunch of squishes.”
As David Drucker notes, the bigger story is that Cruz revealed private conversations which is a huge breach of Senate etiquette.
