Heidi Cruz says as president, her husband, Ted, will deliver 'a combination of the religion and law'

Heidi Cruz says her husband's campaign, and, if elected, presidency, exist "to show this country the face of the God that we serve."

She went on to say that, "I think that’s something that this country really needs to be reminded of, is that Christians are loving people, are nonjudgmental people, but there is right and wrong, we have a country of law and order, there are consequences to actions and we must all live peaceably in our own faiths under the Constitution. And Ted is uniquely able to deliver on that combination of the law and religion."

And if you don't like our Christian love and tolerance, we will smite you.

Not all Christians are loving people, especially not the kind of Christian her husband is!

Nonjudgmental? Really?

Our laws are secular, and there should never be any thought of combining law and religion...they tried that in Europe, it wasn't called the Dark Ages for nothing!!!

This American, at least, doesn't give a flying fuck what the president thinks about god.

And I don't need some fucking moron like Cruz to show me the face of god either.

I'd a thousand times rather wind up with President Trump than that slimy prick.

someone said kids treat their parents that way at that age.

My daddy was awesome and I would hug him at any age.


My molester though? I would certainly treat him that way

to a kid.
Not in her eyes. Something is going on there that's not natural.
First thing Mr. Shraby said was "It looks like he's been molesting her".
My thought also. There was no pride for her dad in that video..none.

Then they say things like this.

There is not an ounce of loving Christian among them. Their Gawd is not a loving Gawd.

I wonder if any of the millionaire newsreaders at the popular media outlets will ask Mrs. Cruz about the loving, nonjudgmental ways that her husband intends to bring to the United States should he be placed in the Oval Office by some catastrophically horrible turn of events?

Except that there's EVERYthing wrong with that.

7-2 Opus Dei SCOTUS, kids.
Women's rights down the shitter.
Labor rights down the shitter.
LGBTQI progress down the shitter.
Human rights, down the shitter.
A marriage between corporations and religion.
"PresiPope Cruz XLV", America.
When he's all done, the economic pain and absence of hope & opportunity you're going to feel will be catastrophic.

That sound OK to you, 'Murica?

A tree is known by the fruit it bears. If I want a Christian politician to do something I'll give President James Earl Carter a jingle. That skunkbucket you married is so evil even your own daughter can't stand him.

But even if she were dirtass poor, there's no opiate quite like the JesusJuice. Cruz drank his own kool-aid, and
If he gets the Oval, we're pretty much all fucked.
