Ted Cruz had some choice words for the media during Wednesday’s GOP debate in Boulder, Colorado.

The Texas Senator went off on debate host CNBC for being part of a left-leaning media establishment that’s out to target Republicans — and for asking softball questions of candidates that lack substance.

“The questions asked in this debate illustrate why the American people don’t trust the media,” Cruz said. “This is not a cage match. Donald Trump, are you a comic book villain? Marco Rubio, why don’t you resign? Jeb Bush, why have your numbers fallen? How about talking about the substantive issues?” Cruz pleaded to a loud applause from the crowd.
