Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) spoke to the press in the nation’s capital Tuesday morning to address the horrific terror attacks in Brussels. He mourned with the victims’ families, then pinned the blame on failed leadership both at home and abroad.
“Today’s attacks in Brussels underscores this is a war,” Cruz said. “This is not a lone war. ISIS has declared jihad.”
“It is way past time we have a president who will acknowledge this evil and will call it by its name and use the full force and fury to defeat ISIS,” he continued. “Until they are defeated, these attacks will continue. Their target is each and every one of us.”
Cruz, one of five remaining presidential candidates, urged America needs a leader who is not afraid to speak about terrorism in bold terms.
“We need a president who sets aside political correctness,” Cruz insisted. “We don’t need another lecture about Islamophobia.”
More than a change in rhetoric, Cruz noted we need a more robust security process. The Brussels attacks, Cruz said, are “the fruit of a failed immigration policy in Europe.”
He called the president’s plan to allow thousands of Syrian refugees into the States woefully wrong. We need “serious vetting,” he said.

Yes. The time for lectures is over.
Now carpet bombing? It’s close to time for that...
About time this bast’d came out and said something good.
SHUT UP CRUZ. You lost the moral authority to speak out when you blamed Trump this morning. Now you can go to hell. Any hope I had for Trump and Cruz working together has vanished.
Cruz: 1 week late, $20 short.
I can’t believe I actually supported this fraud at one time.
L
cruz is quite literally twisting in the wind
Give 10 more points to Trump for giving "courage" to our favorite copycat...TC.
Oh you mean when he questioned Trumps judgement when Trump wanted to weaken NATO.
lol yeah there ya go
Right, we also don’t need a lecture on how this is all Trump’s fault, and that you’ve “beaten” him X number of times.
Is there still a NATO w/o the US?
““It is way past time we have a president who will acknowledge this evil and will call it by its name and use the full force and fury to defeat ISIS,”
He doesn’t get it. The name of “this evil” is not ISIS.
Islam has been at war with the rest of the human race since 622 A.D.
It must remain so until there is only Islam according to their book.
Mad Mo made it so.
I gotta wonder if the reason we call “Turkeys” Turkeys is because the gobble gobble sound sounds sorta like the Islamic caterwauling from the towers for the “call to prayer”
Cruz endorses Trump!!
It is way past time for IslamoDESTROYA..
Along with ANY who defend that wretched cult.
Would NATO be that organization that bombed Christian Serbs to help Muslims?
good for cruz! he’s jumped on the Trump bandwagon with both feet, though I seriously doubt he’d have been taking such a hard-line stance if Trump hadn’t opened the doors weeks ago with his strong anti-illegal-immigration stance and strong anti-Muslim-immigration stance and taking on the subsequent enemedia full frontal banshee attacks with sword and shield.
Ted, Trump called it while you had you ass up Mitt and Glen Beck to win Utah
You get it.
