The Texas senator’s questionable podcast deal with iHeartMedia is raising eyebrows amid his increasingly desperate fundraising efforts
THE WALLS ARE closing in around Ted Cruz, and the Republican senator is lashing out.
Cruz, who has served two terms as Texas junior senator, is facing a tough reelection challenge from former NFL player and current U.S. Rep. Colin Allred (D-Texas), who won Texas’ Democratic Senate primary in a landslide victory last month.
On Wednesday, Cruz begged for donation on Fox News while complaining that Allred is out fundraising his 2018 challenger, former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke, by leaps and bounds.
“The Democrats are coming after me, they are gonna spend more than $100 million this year, George Soros is already spending millions of dollars in the state of Texas,” Cruz told Sean Hannity. “My opponent a liberal Democrat named Colin Allred, is out raising Beto O’Rourke, my last opponent, 3 to 1. They are flooding millions of dollars into Texas — and the reason is simple. You remember my last reelection, it was a 3-point race. I won by 2.6 percent.”
Lemmy and Reddit would love that! If it was up to them, we’d be a ONE party system!
What does this comment even mean? Yeah, everyone who isn’t a Texas hick would love to see Rafael Cruz pack it up and head back to cancun. He’s an awful senator, let alone a terrible person.
If it was up to them, we’d be a ONE party system!
Are you criticizing the fact that a seat is going to flip? Because that’s what happens in a democracy. It goes both ways and reflects the will of the people.
Or are you criticizing the fact that the dems are raising a huge amount of money? You mean like how the republicans instituted citizens united to do exactly that for their own team? Are you salty because a republican is losing at their own game?
Something tells me it’s neither of those things and you’re just mindlessly repeating some drivel you saw about how democrats are evil.
It means that on Lemmy, just like Reddit:
Republicans = Evil
Democrats = Can do no wrong.
Ted is one of the biggest AIPAC recipients this is great news.
