Ted Cruz mocked for saying nuclear war is more likely because of Biden’s ‘presidential weakness’

Ted Cruz is once again wading into the political arena to assert his viewpoint that President Joe Biden, not Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, is largely to blame for the war in Ukraine.
In a recent Fox News interview, the Texas senator discussed how the world has fortunately not seen a nuclear weapon detonated against an enemy power since the Second World War.
“We’ve managed to hold off anyone using a nuclear weapon. I pray to God that doesn’t happen,” Mr Cruz said.
But Mr Cruz continued that he believes that under Mr Biden’s administration, the chances of that fact remaining true are unlikely to hold.
“I will say I think the odds of it happening are increasing because I think presidential weakness from the White House invites this,” he adds.

Maybe because our young have never been taught fact based history and believe whatever they are told by the left. It is like marching off a cliff because you have been told that it is safer down there.
Maybe it is good they will be unaware what is coming if the nukes start flying because changing indoctrinated minds is a difficult task.
I don’t watch TV because just about everybody on TV looks like a freak. Many of them must be a real freak. Always act like they are on drug.
Ted is right, of course, as usual.
I am sure that Cruz is *crushed* that some ass doesn’t like him and is making fun of him. I am sure that he will change his behavior because of this taunting...//sarc// Let us tell these asses to go to hell and shut the hell up.
Cruz is right.
Remember the “doomsday clock”? The media only drag it out when there’s a Republican president. When Trump was standing up to rocket man, the lunatics moved the “doomsday clock” to near midnight. The “clock” didn’t move when biden gave our sworn enemies 85 billion dollars worth of military munitions. Not a word out of the media when biden moved to allow iran to get a nuclear bomb. Nary a peep when sleepy joe showed his weakness to the Russians.
Saying that nuclear war is more likely with Biden in the White House is not the same thing as saying that Biden is more to blame for the war than Putin.
Mocked by who?
Children
The idiots on the left, the ones that said hunter biden's laptop was a russian hoax are the ones that mock Cruz on this statement.
How about a nice game of chess?
I wouldn’t be shocked at all to see a tactical nuke launched against a city in Ukraine. It has been part of the Russian doctrine for decades.
I think we see a nuke before we see chemical weapons. I am not hoping for either, but it is a pragmatic escalation from where we are today.
These headlines are written by looking at Twitter and ignoring all of the tweets that support Cruz's position.
Same here. And I think Putin is going to roll the dice that there will not be a strategic nuke response by NATO in retaliation.
He just might be right.
And you think this lunatic, with thousands of nuclear weapons, will go down to a 'conventional war defeat'?
That's like watching a western movie bar fight and the bad guy is getting beaten up, think he'll reach for his gun?
C'mon bert, you are smarter than that.

Yep it’s a Child
If Putin is dead, an early first strike casualty, he can’t order the destruction you fear.
Also a fact is that if there's just enough notice - certainly less than the what, two weeks that Joe was saying Vlad was gonna invade - in less than that time, we, the US, have military assets that can just fly into any airport in the world in airliners and secure a landing spot for reinforcements, which would have been right behind them coming from Germany and Poland. They (82nd Airborne, specifically) would bring their heavy stuff in cargo planes and would only jump if necessary, in this case not.
Certainly Trump would have moved in this way and said "Better not do it Vlad." This is where Trump's experience in dealing with certain family types in the construction world would have been most valuable, compared to Biden's juvenile stories about CornPop.
Too late now though, the war is on.
And frankly right after Vlad it would be all Biden's and his handlers' fault, going back to the craven, ignominious surrender in Afghanistan.
While I agree in concept, the problem is: do you want this bunch of grifters, thieves, and retards to install a new government in Russia? What exactly would THAT look like?
I may not like Putin, but he's the devil we do know. Having the Biden Deep State, Schwab, Soros et. al. install a government in Russia is frightening.
By the usual suspects, of course.🙄

As a conservative you have trouble grasping the concept of change. Russia has experienced twice the theft of the revolution by the bad guys. The third time can be the charm
NATO would HAVE to respond though, wouldn’t they? I don’t think they would go strategic either. This kind of escalation would be a “tit for tat” and I hope NATO has a selection of options on the books and ready to go.
I think at least, the origin of the launch would need to be neutralized. We could do that with cruise missiles.
The world wide condemnation would be something to behold. But I don’t think Putin would care. At that point, he has to know that...and decide to do it anyway.
