Last night’s Democratic debate was bad. I mean really really bad.
You know you are lost as a party when “Are you a capitalist?” is considered a “gotcha” question.
The Democrats spent the whole night attacking Republicans for being mean, pandering to illegal immigrants, downplaying the FBI investigation that is currently focused on Hillary, and pretending that Obama’s foreign policy has been working.
It was an embarrassing display and while all the GOP candidates weighed in, it should come as no surprise that Ted Cruz’s reaction was the most powerful.
From The Hill:
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said on Wednesday that he is troubled by the ideas offered during the first Democratic presidential debate.
“It was a recipe to destroy a country,” he told a crowd in Kalona, Iowa, according to The Dallas Morning News.
“It was more socialism, more pacifism, more weakness and less Constitution,” Cruz, who is running for the Republican presidential nomination, said of the Tuesday evening debate in Las Vegas.
“We’re seeing our freedoms taken away, and last night was an audition for who would wear the jackboot most vigorously,” he added. “Last night was an audition for who would embrace government power [and] strip your and my individual liberties.”
Recipe to destroy a country.
Nailed it right on the head.
When listening to Democrats talk about America, it’s hard to ignore the fact that they constantly talk about how our country needs to be like other countries. All we ever here from them is how Denmark is better, Australia is better, or we should be more like England. It’s madness.
Liberals clearly don’t like the fundamental structure of this country in terms of rule of law, Judeo-Christian principles, capitalism, etc. They are out to change the very things that make us different and vastly more successful than any other nation in history and Ted Cruz is absolutely right that these changes will destroy the country.
Killing jobs and destroying the livelihoods of millions of Americans to combat climate change is a radical position.
Refusing to even consider removing federal funding from an organization that is caught on video laughing about fraud, infanticide, and various felonies is a radical position.
Claiming that there should be absolutely no restrictions on abortions at any point in pregnancy is a radical position.
Taking jobs away from American citizens in a weak economy by unilaterally legalizing millions of illegal immigrants is a radical position.
Declining to build an environmentally friendly pipeline that would provide jobs for thousands of people strictly because of your own personal ideology is a radical position.
Providing the enemy of your most loyal ally with billions of dollars to spend on terrorism and a pathway to a nuclear weapon is a radical position.
Today’s Democrats have been completely brainwashed by the fringe and if you don’t believe me just look at how Jim Webb was treated in last night’s debate. His party has completely abandoned moderates like him.
It’s time we start calling out the Democrats on their radical positions and Ted Cruz is the perfect candidate to do that.
sadly, many Americans will be too eager to partake of this poisonous recipe like cultsists at the Jim Jones all you can drink buffet.
Ted is doing his best but the brain dead are not listening.
Most Americans are too stupid to understand what is happening to America.
The CNN debate should be considered a low point for America - getting five traitors on stage with the audience applauding. That’s in addition to the fifth-column moderators.
[Ted Cruz is the perfect candidate]
TED CRUZ - For such a time as this - 2016
Trump said Bernie was a Communist and Ted dissected the issues. All Trump can do is spout while Ted and his powerful intellect destroys the Lefty arguments.
