“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," former House Speaker John Boehner said of GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz. | AP Photo
When it
comes to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, even a few months’ time out of Congress has done
little to lessen former Speaker John Boehner’s contempt for his former Capitol
Hill colleague.
“Lucifer
in the flesh,” Boehner told an audience at Stanford on Wednesday night,
according to the Stanford Daily. “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.”

In fact,
Wednesday night was not the first occasion that Boehner has compared Cruz to
“Lucifer,” using the epithet last month during a question-and-answer session with
reporters at the Futures Industry Association conference in Boca Raton,
Florida.
As far as
Donald Trump goes, Boehner remarked that he had golfed with Trump for years and
that the two are “texting buddies.”
On fellow
Ohioan John Kasich, Boehner was magnanimous.
The
governor “requires more effort on my behalf than all my other friends … but
he’s still my friend, and I love him,” Boehner said, according to the report. Rest of the Story
