Cruz calls out Trump for not spending on Senate candidates
The Hill ^ | 11/03/2022 | MAX GREENWOOD

Posted on 11/03/2022 7:36:38 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is calling out former President Donald Trump for not spending more of his $100 million war chest to boost Republican Senate candidates ahead of next week’s midterm elections.

In an episode of his podcast, “Verdict with Ted Cruz,” that aired on Monday, Cruz lamented that Trump had spent “almost none” of his massive cash reserves in key Senate races, arguing that it should be up to the former president to provide crucial air cover for candidates whom he has endorsed.

Did he call out Mitch McConnell who is holding back the actual funds designated for the Senate & Governor races ?

Trump shows up at those candidates campaigns - by doing so peolple naturally support those candidates monetarily....there’s no price they can put on showing up.

So what’s Ted done?

I'm waiting to hear exactly his plan for 2023 if he's in the majority.

Maybe Trump has looked at the tea leaves and decided that we can’t flip the Senate so he’s investing his money where it will give the most return?

This is a report in “The Hill”. Are we to have an internecine battle because of something that was reported in “The Hill?”

If you read the article, it says

“Cruz also accused Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) of withholding critical political dollars from “pro-Trump” candidates, while funneling money into races where “moderates” and Trump critics are running.”

No matter. Trump has been out doing rallies. Is Ted remotely aware of that? Does Trump get the money to do that off of a tree that grows money in DC?

Does Ted go to these rallies?
