Ted Cruz Thinks ‘Duck Dynasty’ Star Phil Robertson Would Make a Great UN Ambassador (Video)
Ted Cruz thinks “Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson would make an excellent United Nations ambassador.
“Imagine for a second, Phil Robertson ambassador to the United Nations,” Ted Cruz said Friday morning during a campaign rally in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina where the reality star made an appearance.
“You know what? There is a reason why he terrifies the mainstream media. He says things you’re not supposed to say. He actually remembers who we are as Americans,” Cruz said of Robertson. “He speaks it with a joy. Not with anger, not with hatred — with a joy.”

Twitter reaction on the Cruz/Robertson partnership seems polarized:
When are folks like Phil Robertson and Ted Cruz going to be raptured already? You people keep promising to leave, but never do.

Hilarious that @HillaryClinton has esteemed Morgan Freeman, while @tedcruz is featuring hate-monger Phil Robertson. Hmm, which side to pick?
