Commentary: John Boehner Caught on Tape Using Extreme Profanity Against Ted Cruz, Report Says

Former House Speaker John Boehner, a Republican from Ohio, reportedly let loose while recording audio snippets for his new memoir and even used one of those soundbites to attack GOP Sen. 👤Ted Cruz of Texas.

Boehner, now 71 and more than five years removed from a House leadership role, has apparently been lying low and writing a tell-all book about his quarter of a century in Washington.

Per a report from Axios, the former representative of Ohio’s Eighth Congressional District went off the script while drinking wine in studio recently and had some harsh words for Cruz.

Axios reported Thursday that while recording audio for his book “On the House: A Washington Memoir,” the former swamp creature attacked his old arch-nemesis in the Senate with a verbal hand grenade.

“Oh, and 👤Ted Cruz, go f— yourself,” Boehner reportedly said while recording the book and sipping a glass of red wine.

“The audio version, which includes a heftier price tag of $39.99, will be sprinkled with Boehner’s unfiltered, baritone, inner monologue,” Axios reported. “Similar to the cover — where he’s pictured in a dark room, drinking red wine with a cigarette burning in an ashtray — Boehner has been taping his audiobook with a glass of wine in hand.”

Axios reminded its readers that Boehner has a love for tanning, alcohol and cigarettes.
