Ted Cruz says he's dropped 'Lyin Ted' nickname and ended feud with Trump

Andrew O'Reilly By Andrew O'Reilly | Fox News


Sen. Ted Cruz says his feud with President Trump is long gone.

He says he's Lyin’ Ted no more.

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, declared on Saturday night that the ignominious nickname bestowed on him by President Trump during the 2016 campaign season has been relegated to the annals of history -- as has the feud between Cruz and Trump.

"This was also a breakthrough year in which my presidential sobriquet went from 'Lyin’ Ted' to 'Beautiful Ted,'" Cruz joked during a speech at the Gridiron Club. Cruz was joking, in the spirit of the roast.

He also quipped: “I gotta say, that new pet name felt like it really hit the mark. Why else do you think I’m growing a beard?"

Lyin' Ted to 'Beautiful'??  How about 'Great' Ted ... somehow 'beautiful' sounds girly.  'Wonderful Ted' works as well.

Anyways, Ted has stood in support of him long ago.  Glad Trump has finally seen the light!
