CNN host Don Lemon said late Tuesday that while he didn't like the fact that Sen. and his wife were harassed and driven out of a Washington, D.C. restaurant by protesters, it's what Cruz "Signed up for" as a public official.
ADVERTISEMENT. "In a way, I think it goes with the territory. I don't like that they were blocking his wife, but that's what he signed up for. And as a strict constitutionalist, which Ted Cruz is, he knows it is protected under the First Amendment," he continued.
"I don't like it. I don't like it happening to his wife. That's what he signed up for. That's part of the deal," Lemon concluded.
The perspective comes after protesters opposed to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh accosted Cruz and his wife Monday evening, chanting "We believe survivors" while demanding to know why he would vote for Kavanaugh's confirmation.
Cruz has been friends with creep Kavanaugh for 20 years.
Now Cruz is on judiciary committee hearing his testimony.
Cruz and his wife left the restaurant as protesters peppered him with questions regarding Kavanaugh, who has been accused by two women for sexual misconduct at a party in high school and college, respectively, in the 1980s.
