David Brooks: Cruz Looks a Little Like Joe McCarthy

‘I think he’s made a lot of enemies — It doesn’t help that he has a face that looks a little like Joe McCarthy, actually’

BROOKS: "So Ted Cruz is, just violates my sense. And I think if you mention the name Ted Cruz to other Senators, you just get titanic oceans of eye-rolling, because you’re a freshman, you don’t go in and take over hearings. Like hang around and learn how it’s done. And it’s like the most un-conservative act to come in two weeks into the job and decide the Senate exists for you to take it over. And so I think he’s made a lot of enemies. It doesn’t help that he has a face that looks a little like Joe McCarthy, actually.”
