While it's likely I don't agree with his policy stance (I am not really familiar with how he campaigned since I didn't follow all of the Texas e******ns) I can unequivocally say I respect him and what he said here. A good example for many politicians to follow, I think.

Just showed he has more class than SNL. the apology given was done because of public pressure.

That may be, as is usually the case in apologies around things political,

But it seems to me what Dan Crenshaw was saying is that we need to let go of all that superficial stuff and focus on the real issues that we all have in common.

You, my fellow OPP-er, appear to be unable to "get it" yourself.
It is responses like yours that are part of the problem that Dan Crenshaw points out as unproductive.

That was a very classy response. And America let SNL know that their level of bad taste had crossed a line. The guy doing it should have said no way, it was over the line. The black guy did express an initial reaction that indicated he thought it was too much.

Democrats got it too, they did.
