An analogy I made today about Senator Ted Cruz, the pied piper and Republicans

Somehow, a significant portion of grassroots Republicans are in love with this guy. It’s like the pied piper just led the Republican party off a cliff and those folks who ended up falling off the cliff at his behest are laying on the ground with a mangled body and twisted limbs and are looking at the pied piper and with their last bit of strength painfully mouth the words “I love you”. It’s a bizarre thing to see people in love with the person who has just destroyed them.
