The senator brushed off his previous phrasing as “sloppy” and “frankly dumb.”

"Ted Cruz on Thursday walked back his use of the word “terrorist” when describing the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol during an intense back and forth with Fox News host Tucker Carlson -- Cruz was lambasted during Carlson’s Wednesday night show for describing Jan. 6 as “a violent terrorist attack on the Capitol. Cruz brushed off his previous phrasing as “sloppy” and “frankly dumb.”
But Carlson didn’t accept that answer, arguing that the attack was not terrorism and questioning Cruz's motivations. “You told that lie on purpose, and I’m wondering why you did,” Carlson said. "Tucker, I agree with you. It was a mistake to say that yesterday, and the reason is what you just said, which is we have now had a year of Democrats and the media twisting words and trying to say that all of us are terrorists" Cruz said. The back and forth continued for almost 10 minutes. At one point Carlson was exasperated, cutting Cruz off."
Poor Ted Cruz.....cucked again.....
And in typical Ted Cruz fashion; he desperately grovels at the feet of the people who continuously clowns him -- and yet, Ted keeps begging and begging for their approval....How anybody can look at this coward and take him seriously or see him as some "tough Conservative" is laughable...Even when Teddy tried the tired excuse of claiming "No, I was talking about the Antifa people who where there, they were the terrorists" -- even that didn't fly with Tucker and the gang....
