This is like seriously the best House of Cards episode ever.
Why Ted Cruz is the real-life Frank Underwood
http://theweek.com/articles/449585/why-ted-cruz-reallife-frank-underwood
Like the fictional Underwood, Cruz is brilliant, cunning, and audacious. He is usually several steps ahead of his rivals, and indifferent to policy except as a vehicle to fuel his own rise to power. In a town filled with overconfident would-be Masters of the Universe, Cruz stands out as the most shamelessly Machiavellian man in Washington. And that should worry anyone who cares about the future of American politics.
