But, one thing he has remained consistent about is defense of free speech. This is giving him too much credit considering he voted for Carr to lead the FCC in the first place. The one thing Cruz has remained consistent on is knowing how to improve his own reputation by saying something reasonable sounding every so often, but in terms of his actions he’s a party apparatchik and total piece of shit.

Behold, Schrödinger’s shit sandwich. Now, a shit sandwich is when you take something shitty, and bracket it with two nice things. If you’ve heard of this before, you’ve probably talked to management, or more clearly, heard someone vent about talking to management. If you haven’t, well, good on you for avoiding the notice of management. Now, what could a Schrödinger’s shit sandwich be? Well, it would have to be something that somehow both follows and rebels against that definition above. So let’s take the quote. Ted Cruz is a piece of shit. Ted Cruz defends free speech from government overreach. Ted Cruz is a piece of shit. So this could be represented as: We’re making fun of Ted Cruz. We’re agreeing with Ted Cruz! We’re making fun of Ted Cruz some more. Yep, that looks like a classic shit sandwich, alright. But! Could it not also be: You’re thinking of Ted Cruz. Someone is defending free speech from government overreach. Ugh! And now there’s more Ted Cruz. Well, fuck me if that isn’t a reverse shit sandwich! So which is it. A shit sandwich? A reverse shit sandwich? Both at the same time‽ Schrödinger’s Shit Sandwich! But you can only be sure which one it is by taking that bite.

Ted cruz is a rare politician who is in politics because he fights for his convictions and wants to advocate for them Now his convictions are dogshit, and he does nothing but harm, but it does mean he’s a breath of fresh air compared to his compatriots
