There used to be no love lost between President Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).

In the past, Trump has bestowed on Cruz the insulting “Lyin’ Ted” nickname, denigrated Cruz’s wife and insinuated his father helped to assassinate former President John F. Kennedy. In return, Cruz described Trump as “a sniveling coward, “a bully” and “a pathological liar.”

But it appears all may be forgiven between the duo ― if a profile published on Thursday for Time’s list of the 100 most influential people is anything to go by. Cruz penned the glowing tribute to Trump, praising him for “doing what he was elected to do: disrupt the status quo.”

The hypocrisy did not go unnoticed:

Is there anything more Cruzian than Ted Cruz slavishly writing the Trump entry for Time’s 100 influential people issue while this remains in Trump’s twitter feed? https://t.co/1y9K9QzliJ — Helen Kennedy (@HelenKennedy) April 19, 2018

wait ted cruz had to write about trump for time magazines 100 did he lose a bet 😹😹😹😹 — darth™ (@darth) April 19, 2018

As you read Sen. Cruz’s heroic praise of POTUS for Time’s "100 Most Influential,” it's worth remembering this tweet making fun of Cruz’s wife is still live. Trump has never apologized for this and similar attacks on Cruz’s family. pic.twitter.com/RaCqfXhWgB — T. Becket Adams (@BecketAdams) April 19, 2018

If you were afraid to ask somebody for a favor, just remember: @tedcruz just penned a glowing tribute in @TIME to the man who accused his dad of assasination and called his wife ugly. So just go for it! — Pat Cunnane (@PatCunnane) April 19, 2018

I just remembered that the “beans” Trump ended up personally spilling on Cruz’s wife was that he thought she was ugly — Asawin Suebsaeng (@swin24) April 19, 2018

Ted Cruz writing the article on Donald Trump for Time's 100 is just so weak. Good god man have some respect for yourself.https://t.co/kC6EJyZ32i — Jack Miller (@politicalmiller) April 19, 2018

Donald Trump very publicly called Ted Cruz’s wife ugly and crazy. He suggested multiple times that Ted Cruz’s father helped kill JFK.



Now Cruz writes the TIME100 piece praising Trump.



This is so utterly pathetic. https://t.co/ctVFnbj3Gu — bsteels (@bsteels) April 19, 2018

Ted Cruz, who ended his campaign calling Donald Trump an "utterly amoral" "pathological liar" "narcissist at a level I don't think this country has ever seen," writes an ode to Trump's elites-triggering for this year's Time most influential list: https://t.co/rIOec1PP7f — Daniel Dale (@ddale8) April 19, 2018

Call me old fashioned, but if I were Ted Cruz and Donald Trump had personally branded me as a liar, suggested he had dirt on my wife, spread rumors that my father assasinated JFK, and was, you know, Donald Trump, I’d probably pass on writing his effusive TIME magazine blurb. — Matt Fuller (@MEPFuller) April 19, 2018

At some point within the last month Ted Cruz woke up, looked himself in the mirror, and said "Time to write nice things about the guy who said my dad killed a former President" — Juggalocialism (@UweBollocks) April 19, 2018
