    Apparently he and his wife have been living in separate houses, so there was some mind of problem there. The ones I feel sorry for are the kids. They look to be mid-to-late teens, so they likely have a poor understanding of exactly what their dad’s company did, and they certainly have no standing to change things - and they’re the perfect age to be spending lots of their time on the internet.

    They wake up one morning and their dad’s been shot and literally the entire internet is celebrating? That’s absolutely brutal.

      Imagine instead if they’re like “nah, yeah, I get it, I get what you mean, he was kind of a dick”

      lol

        Ted Cruz’s kids hate him. There’s some good videos of them doing it at functions in public.

      Yeah, I thought about that after I said it. It would stand to reason if his sociopathy in business also corresponded with some sociopathy in his personal life and people around him had experience with it.
