To recap, Cruz (R-Tex.) set off a bit of a MAGA backlash on Wednesday by calling the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capital a “violent terrorist attack.” Among those criticizing Cruz was Carlson, who laid into the senator on Wednesday night.
So Cruz appeared on Carlson’s show Thursday night to back down, take his medicine and hopefully move on.
It did not go quite so well. But it did at least provide an extremely apt picture of the current state of the post-Jan. 6 GOP — on the evening of the anniversary of Jan. 6, no less.
