While I find Sen Ted Cruz to be a brilliant constitutionalist, I also find him to be lacking a set to back that brilliance up. Cruz is the perfect picture of Republican party weakness and also is the caution light for anyone who wants to win on a national level NOT to follow.
Cruz acts like he is all in and then throws it all away with both hands. Take, for example, this recent interview that Cruz did where he accuses President Donald Trump of spouting “overheated rhetoric” about the election and failing to present evidence of voter fraud.
This guy has to be kidding me?
Cruz agreed that there was widespread voter fraud and now that AOC and made nice he is turning into a little pansy?
Starting at the 16:52 mark of the January 25th, 2021 episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz states the following:
Senator Ted Cruz: “President Trump’s rhetoric, I think, went way too far over the line. I think it was both reckless and irresponsible because he said repeatedly—and he said over and over again—he won by a landslide; there was massive fraud; it was all stolen everywhere. That evidence, the campaign did not prove that in any court, and to make a determination about an election it has to be based on the evidence, and so simply saying the result you want, that’s not responsible and you’ve never heard me use language like that. What I’ve said is voter fraud is real, and we need to examine the evidence, and look at the actual facts; and in particular, what is the evidence of how much voter fraud occurred, and did it occur in sufficient quantities and in sufficient states to alter the outcome of the election. That would have been the mandate of the election commission; to assess.”
And later around the 25-minute mark, he refers to the events of January 6th, 2021 as “a terrorist attack on the United States Capital.”
Man, this dude needs a wakeup call but I am not sure he will ever get it.
