But why is Cruz a know-nothing, disrespectful little punk, but more importantly, who has decided this?
I'm not saying that Feinstein's views are wrong or that her tenure isn't justified. It just seems to me as if the behavior of going to a media outlet, one that grants her the attention of millions, after she had already put Cruz in his place, shows a defense of her personal image. Note that Cruz's points were not brought up when she went to CNN, only his image, which was shown as a know-nothing etc etc. It looks to me as if the media is reinforcing tribal politics at the most superficial level.
Though, that's just my take on it.
