The “Late Show” host mocks the Texas senator after marathon budget vote.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) isn’t giving up his title as a favorite target of late-night comedy anytime soon.
“Senators even had extra padding on their chairs to make the ordeal more comfortable,” Colbert said. “The chairs were padded with only the softest material: cotton, goose down, Ted Cruz’s spine.”
The crack was undoubtedly a reference to Cruz’s history of kowtowing to Donald Trump despite the former president attacking him, his wife and his father.
