"Fuck you, Ted"

[gristy]

That's what what he said after Cruz said this:

Mr President, if we get to November of [2026] and people’s 401(k)s are down 30% and prices are up 10–20% at the supermarket, we’re going to go into election day, face a bloodbath,” Cruz said he told the president, according to Axios. “You’re going to lose the House, you’re going to lose the Senate, you’re going to spend the next two years being impeached every single week.”

1. He's wrong

TFG will be impeached immediately and will be removed from office and face criminal charges

Nothing and no one will save him from his prison term

[newdeal2]

9. Which Repub Senators are joining us?

[UpInArms]

10. Dunno for certain

Murkowski for one

[fujiyamasan]

13. You think too highly of republican senators

Don’t delude yourself. It’s not going to happen. The party is the cult of Trump.

[UpInArms]

14. i have very little, if any, regard for the goodness of any republican

but they can see the writing on the wall.

their party will be forever doomed if they do not divest themselves of this plague

[cloudbase]

2. Ted can tell which way the wind is blowing,

especially if that wind is cold.

[gab13by13]

3. That North wind is cold,

no matter which direction it is blowing from.

7. The article dates this conversation in early '25.

So now the question is who wants to revisit this conversation and why.

I would also like to throw my own “Fuck you Ted.” onto the pile before I go though as well.

[gristy]

11. Ah, yes. Sorry, should have read more carefully.

[Maru Kitteh]

15. Meh. Any excuse to say "Fuck You Ted." works for me!

Nothing to be sorry for!

[bronxiteforever]

4. Dies Irae you GOP MFs.Midterm 281 days to go.

[Traildogbob]

5. Specifically

Said “IF we get there”.
Sounds like he was instructing Trump that we should not get there, as is.

[herding cats]

6. He's running for president (again) in '28

He's laying the groundwork to try and claim he wasn't responsible for what took place under Trump/Vance.

This is one of the few things I can agree with Trump on, fuck you, Ted.

[Cirsium]

8. Impeached once

Impeached once, Ted, not "every single week," and convicted.

[Torchlight]

12. Impeached, indicted, acquitted, impeached, unseated, footnote.

Best riff I can do on Henry's wives pnemonic.
