Still, he was upset at people crediting him with elevating the Texas Republican’s status.
‘The only thing I don’t like is people are, like, “It’s your fault that guy won”,’ he complained. ‘…That’s not true. I think like most of the votes were in and that guy is a Republican with an eye patch in Texas. So it was a lock before it even started.’
‘The only thing I did do, which I am guilty of and I apologized for, is I did make that guy famous, and a household name for no reason,’ he went on, before quipping ‘I did what Ariana Grande did for me.’
