Ted Cruz: "we've got four months to stop a blue wave from destroying the great state of Texas."

TED CRUZ: “Let me tell you right now. Every one of those crazed, angry leftists who showed up in 2018, they’re showing up in 2020, and they’re even angrier. They hate President Trump, and far too many of them hate America. The left is not going to stop at anything to come after Texas and come after this country, and we’ve got four months to stop a blue wave from destroying the great state of Texas.”

There will be a blue wave because the Republicans have destroyed Texas. Texas is a hot spot in the pandemic and the Republicans in charge have made the problem worse.

You, your governor and your Republican cohorts are doing a bang-up job of infecting your constituents. What were yesterday's infection and death rates? In case you didn't know, here's Texas' webpage with the most up-to-date information:

Keep it up, Teddy-boy! You'll keep killing off your fellow Texans while sinking your state's economy. You really are a good Republican, aren't you?

"Crazed leftists" were just suburban women who voted Trump in 2016.

I'm sure calling them crazed leftists will help bring them back in the fold Teddy.

When it's their hateful rightwing ideology and legislative actions that make them such pariahs. They'll need a time machine to fix all the mess they've made.

but for a United States Senator to openly state that us on the "left" hate America is so un-American.

And it's not 'the left' that is destroying America and Texas. Here's a mirror, Senator Cruz.

Oh and by the way Teddy I was born here, 5th generation Texan and you and your party has already destroyed the great state of Texas. Our great state of Texas needs to purge the republicon party and "drowning it in a bathtub" to quote one of your friends.
