because i usually agree with you. okay? every republican, didn't they all run on the idea that they were going to fight. they were going to fight the president on spending and on obamacare and that they were going to stand up and didn't they all agree on that? didn't they all say those thing s when they were running for office, not just ted cruz? >> oh, i think there was very little difference between what ted cruz said and what the others said. the difference is the tactics. you fight some things and don't fight other things. for example, these people who are making all of those remarks about justice thomas or senator scott. i would totally ignore those people. nobody is going to pay attention to them. they're the people who want attention and you're giving them attention. you know, it is like the people who used to run out on the baseball field during the game so they could go out and say they're on television. but the baseball eventually learned you don't put the camera on them and they will stop doing it. >> let me ask you this, though,
