Hollywood screenwriter Craig Mazin lived with Sen. [crscore]Ted Cruz[/crscore] during their freshman year at Princeton University, and he spent most of Tuesday — and much of Wednesday — calling the Republican presidential candidate an “asshole” on Twitter.
I have 30k followers now, and all I had to do was be stuck in a room with Ted Cruz for a year. I'm sure you're all nice, but SO NOT WORTH IT

I'm not a journalist. I'm just a guy who experienced 1000 times the safe level of Cruz exposure. #permanentlywarped https://t.co/PHVxwHrwBz

Ms. Farrow portrayed the unwilling mother of the Antichrist, so she has a decent point of reference. https://t.co/Zyw97fdRFa

Here's someone who knew Ted in 1988 as well. And lo and behold, she agrees… he hasn't changed. At all. https://t.co/mHjeniGxPj

Dear sir: Bill Clinton could be a serial eater of planets. Ted Cruz would still be an asshole. https://t.co/GEDpdQw1rB

Ted says any GOPer that doesn't like him isn't real GOPer. So… soon the only real GOPer left will be him, I guess? https://t.co/DL9SayVC5S

When I met Ted in 1988, I had no word to describe him, but only because I didn't speak German. Thank you, Germans, for "Backpfeifengesicht."

This is important. I know it seems like I'm stretching the truth a little for comic effect. I'm not. At all. AT ALL. https://t.co/HM29f7Rdey

That's never happened, because Ted's favorite ice cream flavor is "death penalty." https://t.co/ckwR0Nibg1

This isn’t the first time Mazin has criticized his former bunkmate. During Cruz’s 2012 senatorial campaign, Mazin was quick to voice voice his opinion of Cruz, namely that he’s a “huge asshole.”
