“With a Democrat they laugh, talk about fun topics, they have a great time.

“Watch any Republican go on a late-night TV show,” he says. Stephen Colbert gave him a sarcastic pep talk: “There’s no crying in sportsball.”Ĭruz hates the way the late-night TV hosts fawn over liberals and skewer conservative Republicans. Kimmel devoted an entire man-on-the-street segment to ridiculing Cruz. Instead, Cruz did the unthinkable: He called the hoop a basketball ring, something nobody who has ever played basketball, much less seen a basketball hoop, has ever called it. Ten feet, he says to his team, just like in their home gym.Ĭruz had a staffer at the hoop ready with a tape measure to make the same point-the height of the hoops in Indiana and New York City are the same, and their citizens have the same say. They travel to Indianapolis and its massive arena, and he pulls out a tape measure to check the height of the basket. In the movie, Gene Hackman plays the coach of the tiny Hickory High’s basketball team that makes the state finals. He was visiting the famous gym from Hoosiers in Knightstown for a campaign event. It was April, and Cruz had punted on a slew of primaries in the Northeast, betting his flagging presidential hopes on Indiana and its heartland sensibilities. Politico called the buzz around his campaign “Beto-mania.”Ĭruz is still pissed at Jimmy Kimmel for ragging on him so mercilessly after one of the great gaffes of the 2016 election season. He holds running town halls where he jogs three miles and chats with voters.

A flurry of flattering profiles has labeled O’Rourke as charismatic, full of youthful energy-handsome, too. Again.Ĭruz is running this year to hold onto his Senate seat against the three-term congressman from El Paso, Beto O’Rourke. Still, here we are, me and Ted playing two of his staffers to 11, and the senator wants the ball. The guy’s got none of Barack’s moves, or cool, and if he ever gets to be president, the NBA champs probably aren’t coming for the White House visit. It’s all part of an improbable, choreographed charm offensive to humanize the much-maligned junior senator from Texas. We’re playing two-on-two on a secret, members-only court deep inside the Dirksen Senate Office Building. Swishes them all from the top of the key-and with a hand in his face, no less. T ed Cruz drains three 15-foot jumpers in a row.
