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.

He’s been a disappointment for me. He needs to stop complaining.

Should have been calling out McConnell/RNC instead.

You know this is from the hill so I might take it with a grain of salt. But it’s not trump, it’s McConnell that is the problem Oz, Blake Masters, JD Vance, the guy in Nevada. Trump has done rally’s for and has single handedly driven those campaigns. So tis not accurate. My guess is that the Hill has this a bit distorted but we’ll see

So what's Ted done?

You mean other than run for an office he wasn't eligible to hold?

I don’t know, but Ted is 100% correct about this.

Why isn’t Ted complaining to the Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee for spending its “war chest?” THEY beg for money all the time using Trump’s name.

How much money has Trump RAISED for these candidates via endorsements and rallies vs Ted?

Yeah, that's what I thought. Shut up Ted.

Absolutely.

What has he done to help those who are stuck in the DC Gulag?

What has he done to stop the steal?

What has he done to demand accountability for the Ukrainian Money Laundering Scheme?

Not one damned thing that I have seen.

That will draw the hackles of Trump to be drawn against Cruz.... Creating attacks before the mid-term is not smart by Cruz.

I won't be voting for Cruz after the stunt he pulled when he wouldn't support Trump at the convention - that moment of hesitation I saw clearly and then he dodged it did it for me. Since then he continues to disappoint.
