I watched the video last night. When he said
“When have you stood up and fought for them, when have you bled for them, and what have you accomplished?’”
I cheered!
When he said for us to ask the elected to, “Show us your wounds, “ I knew that he had Christ the Resurrected on his mind. And since this is the Easter season, when we are reliving when He came back to earth and showed “doubting Thomas” the holes in his hands made from the nails of the cross, Cruz is putting us in touch with our deeper patriotism; we are a holy people as Americans, because we are ready and willing to spill our blood, to sacrifice for our beloved and righteous country that was founded on Judeo-Christian principles.
Exactly, the people who criticized Ted Cruz for sticking his neck out are usually the people who would never stick their necks out to battle the left.
