Ted Cruz continues to do everything except sufficiently represent Texas in the Senate. And his constituents notice. The leading Democratic candidate running to overtake Cruz, former NFL linebacker and U.S.
Rep. Colin Allred, is trumping the loathsome bloviator in the fundraising department.That’s a really big deal, especially considering Cruz is a two-time incumbent!Allred has reportedly raised $10.9 million since declaring his candidacy in May, according to the Texas Tribune, almost $2 million more than Cruz over the same period.Cruz’s tally is reportedly $8.8 million.While Cruz’s campaign disputes those numbers, the fact remains that Allred is a serious challenger.
A fourth-generation Texan, the ex-linebacker played his college ball at Baylor and four seasons in the NFL. Since being elected to Congress, Allred has championed a string of bipartisan legislation.Cruz, meanwhile, launches fake investigations into Bud Light and generally talks about the stupidest stuff imaginable.In a particularly low moment, Cruz recently defended his infamous Cancún vacay, admitting he would’ve been useless in the devastating 2021 winter weather, anyway.“When we had a freeze – when the state was frozen – I don’t have the ability to control the weather,” he said, with the crowd audibly groaning.Holy shit.
An audience just LAUGHED at Ted Cruz over Cancun. This is humiliating. pic.twitter.com/EAYcS7xyGdIf you have mortgaged your self respect the way Cruz has…is it still possible to be humiliated?Ted Cruz getting laughed at is the best thing you’ll see today.
