Ted Cruz Tweetstorm: Yesterday, I used a dumb choice of words and unfortunately a lot of people are misunderstanding what I meant.

Yesterday, I used a dumb choice of words and unfortunately a lot of people are misunderstanding what I meant. pic.twitter.com/vWCjFnA4t3— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) January 7, 2022

I was NOT calling the thousands of peaceful protestors on Jan 6 terrorists. I would never do so; I have repeatedly, explicitly said the OPPOSITE—denouncing the Democrats’ shameful efforts to do so & to try to paint every Trump voter in America as “terrorists” & “insurrectionists”— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) January 7, 2022

I was ONLY talking about the limited number of people who committed violent assaults on police officers.

For over a decade, I’ve referred to those who violently attack police officers as terrorists. If you assault a cop you should go to jail.— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) January 7, 2022

The snippet from yesterday didn’t include my passionate & repeated defense of the patriots and peaceful protestors supporting President Trump. I’m sorry that that 20-second clip led so many to misunderstand what I was saying.— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) January 7, 2022

The idiot chose sides. January 6th is for talking about the stolen election and the political prisoners approaching their first year of prison with no trial, rights to lawyers severely curtailed, and constant abuse and torture.

But this azzwipe decides he needs to sound like Cheney and Pelosi. The hell with Cancun Ted.

Tucker did not buy this argument at all when he had Cruz on his program. He right out told Cruz that he did not believe him.

Don’t believe you now, Ted.

Tell you what though: Go on a serious crusade and get the American Patriots in the Pelosi-Schumer-Bowser Gulag released and the charges dropped against them, and get the Feral Bureau of Instigation / Antifa operatives that did all the violence and destruction on Jan 6 arrested and charged, and it will go a long ways toward restoring your reputation.

Anything short of that is just more Cruz Kabuki.

Sure, Ted...

If so, bring us Ray Epps, and the rest of the FBI January 6th insurrectionists,
and free our political prisoners, too!

Then you can ask us for our support.

I saw Tucker’s interview with Cruz. Poor Ted looked like he was about to cry. No one buys his backtracking. He cynically seized the Dem narrative, miscalculating that it would benefit his ‘24 chances. This was a Wile E. Coyote-type spectacular fail.

I was really surprised he said that, because on Jan. 6, before the protesters entered the building, he stood up to contest the election results. Of course that ended after the protestors entered the Capitol.

You want us to believe what you’re claiming you said?

Then why the ever lovin’ F*** are those men and women still being held, illegally, in prison, ON YOUR WATCH.

Doing nothing is also a choice, scumbag.

Why hasn’t the judge involved been dragged off that bench?

You useless piece of crap.

*all aimed at Snakemouth Cruz, not the poster.

He also was a “nay” vote on Merrick Garland’s confirmation.

He means the violent protestors like the Capitol police and the FBI?

Maybe the pipe bomb guy was a terrorist.

He came on Tucker, obviously panicked, and Tucker finished him off last night. Not too bright.
