Ted Cruz Warns Republicans [Trump] They Could Lose Texas In 2020

On Thursday morning, Republican Senator Ted Cruz attended a breakfast gathering for the Christian Science Monitor where he warned, the Texas could absolutely be in play in 2020 now there’s a couple of quotes from Ted Cruz at that breakfast meeting that I want to read, and again, I have to go ahead and admit wholeheartedly I agree with most of what Ted Cruz says here and here it is.

I think the Texas election in 2018 is powerful foreshadowing for what to expect across the country in 2020 that is correct. The Democrats in Texas increased their turnout in more than 100% the far left has pissed off. They hate the president, and that is a powerful motivator. If the left shows up in massive numbers and everybody else doesn’t, that’s how we end up with an incredibly damaging election for the Republican party damaging election, and again, you’re right about that, but you’re wrong about it. Just being that we’re pissed off at the president. You see, that’s the thing I don’t think a lot of people grasp right now.

Cruz continued. If we lose Texas, it’s game over.

“Wanna get Republican Texans to turn out? Just keep reminding them that turning Texas blue is Obama’s dream.”

If Republicans lose Texas, the GOP will be banned.

“If Republicans lose Texas, they will be a minority party nationally for a long time.”

And exactly WHAT is the RNC doing to PREVENT this?

*Crickets Chirping*

Gawd, how I loathe them!

Yes it would be disasterous if we lose Texas, but Trump is not the problem. It is decades of Texan authorities keeping the borders wide open. That includes the call for “come on down” from other states, not just the southern border.

I have never trusted Cruz ever since I found out his wife was CFR.

HEIDI CRUZ, THE COUNCIL ON FOREIGN RELATIONS, AND ‘BUILDING A NORTH AMERICAN (UNION) COMMUNITY’
He had to know. That alone says little for his credentials which may well be phony all the way.my guess is hes still either a never Trumper or so jealous he can’t see straight.

Never mind the GOP being a minority party. That’s the least of our worries. Democrats get the White House again it’s time to turn out the lights. America will be over!

where do you think Californians are moving to after ruining this state Texas. most that are moving are doing this for financial reasons and not because the state is more conservative.

Wrong.

Everyone we know who fled CA did so for both reasons equally...Don't believe me, just look at this site over the past 20 years or so. Countless bailed due to CA leftist politics and financial reasons. Financial is simply the big bonus prize. And most I know who fled CA are further to the right than most here. No question.

I think that Trump is not going to ignore Texas during the 2020 campaign, like Hillary did with the Deer Hunter states.

He is not stupid. He knows that nothing is in the bag.

I never thought nor inferred President Trump was the problem. I was simply agreeing with Senator Cruz’s opinion.

Or like Team Cruz apparently did in 2018. Lots of reports of people wondering where Cruz’s signs were and he had virtually no ads running.

Maybe you can explain how it keep lean got further left. I left in 2016, and listen to DFW talk radio all the time. I cannot believe how left it’s become. Teds problem is he’s not Texas, he’s a puss which is how Beto almost kicked his ass. Corny now, while conservative, is invisible and endemic. When is the last time anyone heard from him on anything?

Nah. The people with the most guns can do the "Refuse To Accept The Results Of An Election" thingee, too.

Only with guns, not Twitter.
