Ted Cruz Is Getting Nervous He's Going to Lose His Senate Seat
Ted Cruz is facing ethics questions regarding his relationship with iHeartMedia amidst a tight race against Rep. Colin Allred for his Senate seat.
The Texas senator’s questionable podcast deal with iHeartMedia is raising eyebrows amid his increasingly desperate fundraising efforts
THE WALLS ARE closing in around Ted Cruz, and the Republican senator is lashing out.
Cruz, who has served two terms as Texas junior senator, is facing a tough reelection challenge from former NFL player and current U.S. Rep. Colin Allred (D-Texas), who won Texas’ Democratic Senate primary in a landslide victory last month.
On Wednesday, Cruz begged for donation on Fox News while complaining that Allred is out fundraising his 2018 challenger, former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke, by leaps and bounds.
“The Democrats are coming after me, they are gonna spend more than $100 million this year, George Soros is already spending millions of dollars in the state of Texas,” Cruz told Sean Hannity. “My opponent a liberal Democrat named Colin Allred, is out raising Beto O’Rourke, my last opponent, 3 to 1. They are flooding millions of dollars into Texas — and the reason is simple. You remember my last reelection, it was a 3-point race. I won by 2.6 percent.”
You're viewing a single thread.
In red Texas, they vote AllRed?
I'll be happy to see Ted voted out.
Oh sheet a footballer? Ted is cooked. They all claim to be christian but we know who the true god of Texas is. The almighty pigskin.
Nobody in Texas outside of Dallas or Houston cares about the NFL, though. It matters more that he played college ball at Baylor, I think.
I thunk it also matters that he wasn't very good. According to his Wikipedia page, he only played in 32 games over 4 years as a pro. That probably saved his brain from CTE.
The guy went on to get a law degree and a career in government, so you’re probably right. His brain didn’t get scrambled too badly from the NFL.
You could argue, though, that if his brain did get scrambled he would make the perfect MAGA Republican
These headlines come out literally every time he's up for reelection. And he wins so easily. I feel like it's just clickbait. Or worse, calls for donations for a doomed campaign
Lindsay Graham did the same thing in his last re-election
And Mitch McConnell. Many people donated to his opponent rather than donating to other races that were Actually competitive.
Better red than Ted?
Hopefully Allred can turn Texas all blue.
