He knocked Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas., for “refusing” to answer his question as he walked away from the pool of reporters.

Shortly after, he was able to ask another group of lawmakers, including Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., a similar line of questioning: “What do you say to the critics who say that the Republicans have abandoned any pretense of being independent jurists and are merely really shilling for the president?'”
