George Clooney: Sen. Ted Cruz Makes Me 'Panic'

Actor George Clooney said that he panics when he sees conservatives like Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) speaking in Congress. 

Clooney referenced Cruz’s 21-hour quasi-filibuster on the Senate floor, which was in support of defunding Obamacare, in comments to New York Magazine 

“I always panic when people like Ted Cruz take the floor and read Green Eggs and Ham,” he said. “You know? Like somehow they’re Jimmy Stewart.”
