Perpetual former candidate for president and (occasionally) vice president Bob Dole has a few opinions about what will soon be the latest crop of former candidates for president. Namely, that he thinks they’re all real swell guys. Well—except for one.

Speaking to ABC News about the country’s prospects, Dole announces jovially, “There are a lot of good candidates. I like [extended pause] nearly all of them.”

Suddenly—his brow furrows. He turns to the women at his right. “Except...” he whispers. “Except for Cruz.”

Then, the 92-year-old man begins to giggle. Over his deep sense of loathing for Ted Cruz, Bob Dole giggles.
