      Bret Stephens always displays civility & decency. He treats people with respect and engages on substance; he would never resort to ad hominem attack, compare someone to a Nazi, or display “the conviction that an opponent embodies an irredeemable evil.” https://twitter.com/brhodes/status/1167622965413863425 …

      Don’t do sarcasm much? Literally every word in my initial tweet was false. Bret Stephens does none of that. But, given his exalted post on the NYT, he should.

          Dude, there is a /s for this entire moment that is used to disperse the ambiguity. Because your statement there? It did not reek of sarcasm. It seemed like you meant it.

          I have to agree. Since I didn't know anything about Stephens, I wasn't sure whether Cruz was being serious or sarcastic. (Sorry, Ted. We're not all as familiar with niche celebrities as you are.)

          This is just weird, Ted. Obviously you’re not too well-versed in sarcasm either.

          Have you ever mentioned in public that the President of the United States should “always display civility & decency. Treat people with respect and engage on substance” as you say a NYT columnist should? Or after you got slapped around the first time you settled in your place?
