Our memories are short too.
It hasn't been that long ago that Cruz was calling January 6, 2021 a "violent terrorist attack"
He's still toast, as far as any future non-SCOTUS aspirations..... And this is coming from one of his biggest 2016 supporters (me).
I still remember him piling on my local hero (Roy Moore).... Cruz is not perfect, but we can talk about his faults.
