Republican compares Ted Cruz to Lucifer; Satanists object.

On Wednesday former US House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner describes his party's presidential candidate Ted Cruz as "Lucifer in the flesh", saying;

Quote:

I have Democrat friends and Republican friends. I get along with almost everyone, but I have never worked with a more miserable son of a bitch in my life.

However the Satanic Temple objects to the comparison, a spokesperson said:

Quote:

Cruz’s failures of reason, compassion, decency, and humanity are products of his Christian pandering, if not an actual Christian faith. It grows tedious when pedophile priests and loathsome politicians are conveniently dismissed as Satanic, even as they spew biblical verse and prostrate themselves before the cross, recruiting the Christian faithful. Satanists will have nothing to do with any of them.

Some Republicans agreed, Cruz is notoriously unpopular among his fellow party members. Peter King [Republcan, NY, HoR] said: "Maybe he gives Lucifer a bad name by comparing him to Ted Cruz".
