Speaking with host Chris Hayes on the Monday edition of MSNBC’s All In, Democratic Congressman and 2016 Senate candidate Alan Grayson (Fl.) made a crude joke in comparing Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz to Miley Cyrus as he’s “twerking every right-winger in sight.”
After Grayson invoked Cruz in context of the 2013 government shutdown, Hayes observed that he found it intriguing that Cruz “did not boast about the shutdown” and argued it’s the lone thing he’s done since being elected the year before.
