Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., said he has dedicated an entire chapter of his new book to Ted Cruz because he “hate” him.

“You have to understand that I like Ted Cruz probably more than my colleagues like Ted Cruz, and I hate Ted Cruz,” Franken told USA Today’s Susan Page while promoting his new book “Al Franken: Giant of the Senate.”

He is “just a special guy,” Franken added, suggesting there may be an account of private conversations he had with Cruz that could make the Texan look bad. He said that he doesn’t feel guilty about breaking protocol on publicly revealing information from these discussions because Cruz broke that protocol with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell back in 2015.

Cruz, a Republican senator from Texas, gets his own chapter in Franken’s new book, titled “Sophistry,” where he is described as “singularly dishonest” and “smarmy,” according to USA Today report.
