Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) retweeted a video posted on the social media of a woman asking why her business destroyed if black lives matter.

“The problem that bothers me,” the woman said as she stood outside of a business in which she said she shares ownership. “You said black lives matter. Why don’t you choke me? I’m black. Look what you did to my store. Look what you did to my store.” cleaning up,” the woman said. “All night cleaning.”

“You lied,” the woman said. “You wanted to loot a store. You needed money. Get a job, like I do. Stop stealing. It’s the neighborhood.”

“We’re trying to build it up, and you tearing it down,” the woman said in the video.

“@JoeBiden Why is your staff raising $$ for the people who burned her store?” Cruz tweeted.

“This woman lays waste to ‘Black Lives Matter’ that looted her business as she watched #BLM,” the tweet Cruz responded to said.

Because destroying businesses is at the top of the Democrat Party’s To-Do list this year.

Biden is either “thinking” over a response to a serious policy matter, or he’s trying to remember if he put his Depends on before hitting the stage.

Where was Cruz when leftist thugs were assault Trump rallies during the 2016 primaries? Oh , right, Cruz was blaming Trump.

As much as I love Ted, and I do, he, like far too many, get lost in the Micro, and thus loose sight of the Macro. I don't blame him. Getting sucked into a pissing contest is all that Twitter is these days.

We badly need those who are able to step back from the micro, and connect the dots in the macro scene. It will all come together then.

Don’t let Cruz make you forget how he made excuses for the leftist thugs who assaulted Trump rallies during 2016 primaries.

“ As much as I love Ted, and I do,”

Don’t forget his blaming Trump for the leftist thugs at Trump rallies back in 2016.

Cruz will never get my vote. I can’t support an apologist for leftist goons

Do we really need to re-litigate the 2016 primary? Let’s keep our eyes on 2020. Is Ted’s point valid here? Yes. Good enough for me.

And Trump was making up stupid crap about Cruz and the Kennedy assassination at the time. It goes both ways. Whoever gets the most votes wins the electors and it doesn’t matter if the votes come from people who wear tinfoil hats and believe in sasquatch, or from some reasonable person with no imagination, a vote is a vote is a vote. As it happens the tinfoil hat vote was wide open for the taking bad Trump wasn’t too proud to grab the opportunity.

Cruz showed his character by siding with violent thugs to try for political points

These were thugs who were beating up rally goers, and Cruz - like a leftist - made excuses for them. I would never want him in a position where we had to rely on him to defend us against criminal mahem.

It’s not relitigating a primary. It’s reminding people of the hollow character of Ted Cruz, who took the side of rioters when he thought it could win him a political advantage. With character like that he can’t be trusted with a position where we’d need to count on him for protection
