Ted Cruz: Democrats may not allow coronavirus relief bill before election to hurt Trump

by Anthony Leonardi, Breaking News Reporter  | August 14, 2020 04:20 PM



Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said Democrats might stall coronavirus relief to hurt President Trump in the upcoming election.

In a forthcoming episode of the Verdict podcast, which was previewed by the Washington Examiner, Cruz said House Democrats may have no intention of passing a coronavirus relief package that the Senate can vote on before the election. He said he's urging Republicans not to be "complicit" in continuing to hold up the package.

"You'll either go home or you'll stick around here, but eventually, the Senate will have to come in and vote on this, and we'll see what's in the final package," said conservative commentator Michael Knowles, who co-hosts the podcast.

"Well, maybe. There may not be a deal. I'm not convinced Nancy Pelosi wants a deal. I think they ... may have made the decision [to] do no deal, insist on give us everything, even as bad as Republicans are, like surrendering 100% is too big an ask," said Cruz, a Republican. "And I think the Democrats may have made the political judgment, 'We'll blame it all on them.'"

"We'll make it really tough until the election for the country," Knowles added.

"And then, they think they're going to win if that's the case. If everyone is at home and broke, that's how you have a terrible election," Cruz said.

   Now, Everyone should realize that there's a valid reason that @libertybele usually starts the Ted Cruz threads.

Imagine - -- what could have been.  One of the few in Congress who I truly believe still stands for "We the People" and has a deep respect for our Constitution, Republic and flag!

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

@corbe Ted obviously doesn't hold a childish grudge and is trying to do what is right for this country.  IMHO he was our country's last hope and God willing, he will decide to run in 2024 and win the oval office and I pray the he will be blessed with a GOP majority in both Houses and hopefully he'll help them get their sh** together!!!

That's all a pipe dream -- I know.  I highly doubt he's going to run again.

Thanks for the post -- another interesting podcast.  However, seriously, I think we all need to take up a fundraiser and buy Ted some decent carpeting!!  It's horrendous.   :rolling:     I truly admire him though; bare bones set up and his podcast is #1!

As his podcast points out BLM are admitted Marxists.  Interesting that they want to boycott white corporations yet idiots like Gates contributes to them.  It left me thinking; what purpose would Gates have to fund them if they are proposing to boycott his company??  There has to be a motivating factor.  Same with Bezos.  What do they have to gain?

This is news? The Dims have done stuff like this my entire life.

I'd be shocked if they didn't do it.

@libertybele

The answer is obvious. Gates,like all the other multi-billionaires wants to be "Master of the Universe",and he has enough money he will never go bankrupt no matter what happens to the rest of the world.

Quite simply,he wants to see business go bankrupt so he can buy them up for a penny on the dollar,make even more billions,and own only the "best" politicians.

When you reach the level of people like Soros or Gates,it's not even about money anymore. It's about raw,naked,power.

This podcast had a video of his 'exchange' with a member of the DEM party and her (their) refusal to acknowledge the radicalism of BLM and to rebuke their violence and what they stand for.  He further points out that the DEMS refused to make the acknowledgement.

That was the main objective of his podcast -- to point out and make people aware of that blatant DEM refusal.

Like him or not, he IS one of the few people who has the backbone to go after the DEMS.  Hopefully he is creating some awareness, not among conservatives or Trump's base (they already know) but among the DEM voting base and Independents.  He's trying to get people to realize the dangers of not voting for Trump; after all the DEMS aren't running on issues they are running on strictly getting rid of Trump.

He's speaking out.  IF more of our GOP Senators and Representatives would display some backbone and stand up to liberalism and their socialist/Marxist agenda we wouldn't be in the situation that we're in.

I neither like or dislike him. I WANT to like him,and he is clearly one of the brightest,and maybe even THE brightest Republican out there with a shot at replacing Trump after 2024,but there is just something about him that  won't allow me to totally trust him.

But you are right about the ENTIRE Dim campaign being about demonizing Trump. That's ALL they have.

No question about it,and he deserves recognition for speaking the truth in the face of obvious threats of violence.
Even when you accept the fact that he MUST speak out now to protect his "credentials" and to have any hope of running for the top slot in 2024,or to be nominated for the next SC seat.

Many assume that he'll run again in 2024, but IMHO I doubt that he'll make another run for the presidency -- I hope that he does, but he made a run for it and it didn't work out and I don't think in this current climate with all the leftist and extremists that he'd want to subject himself and his family to all their bat crap craziness.

His podcast has been very successful and I see him venturing more in that direction and perhaps even give up his Senate seat.

As much as I like Cruz, he doesn't have the charisma or the nads it takes to "take on" the entire leftist world like Trump has.   No, I didn't see it at first, like many.   But I damned sure see it now.
No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.

Why do people STILL think, a professional politician is trust worthy?  NOT.   I AGREE,  NO NADS,   NO CHARISMA.  Goes with the flow, to keep himself relevant.  He is not honorable.  Ask Ben Carson and Marco Rubio.
