Ted Cruz says his Texas Senate race is competitive because "the far left has lost their minds"

“We’ve got a race on our hands,” Cruz said. “If you’re a wealthy liberal sitting in New York City or Massachusetts or San Francisco right now and you could defeat one Republican in the country, it’d be me, that’s why the money is flowing in here.”…

“With the election of Donald Trump, the far left has lost their minds,” Cruz said. “The extreme left, they are energized, they’re angry and they have a lot of hatred for President Trump.”…

“I do think it’s funny that apparently Colbert is mad that anyone buys ads on this show,” Cruz said. “The advertisers ought to follow his advice and not buy ads on his show because it makes him unhappy.”
