Ted Cruz speaks in Milwaukee, predicts a 'red tsunami' as colleague Ron Johnson wages tight re-election campaign

Ted Cruz, the firebrand senator from Texas and a GOP heavyweight, came to Milwaukee on Saturday predicting a conservative wave in the upcoming elections as his colleague Ron Johnson faces a tough reelection battle.

Cruz, who won Wisconsin's Republican primary for president in 2016, returned to a warm welcome at a summit at the Wisconsin Center. He and other top Republicans celebrated the end of Roe v. Wade and promised to usher in a "conservative renewal."

Johnson has been dogged by revelations of an elector fraud scheme on Jan. 6 and is behind in recent polling numbers against several Democratic challengers. Democrats also gathered on Saturday at their state party convention in La Crosse, promising to use the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade to punish Republicans at the ballot in November.

But Cruz and other summit speakers, including gubernatorial candidates Tim Michels, Rebecca Kleefisch and Kevin Nicholson, spoke of an impending "red tsunami".

"Yesterday was a vindication of the work of patriots," Cruz said of the Supreme Court's Friday decision to strike down the constitutional right to abortion. "Revival is coming. Something amazing is happening across the country. People's eyes are opening up."

Other speakers, including the gubernatorial candidates, echoed Cruz's predictions of a conservative wave  in the upcoming November midterm elections. ..................

I would say to the good Senator that hopefully the GOP and RNC have their schlitz together or there won't be a red tsunami.
