Ted Cruz's Slap At 'Emasculated' U.S. Troops Traced To Hungarian Right-Wing

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) tweeted a Russian military video in a highly controversial message last week that has been traced by a propaganda expert to Hungary’s extreme right-wing.

It was also circulated among American white supremacists before Cruz took it mainstream a week after its birth, Alexander Reid Ross told Business Insider. Ross is a fellow at the British Centre for the Analysis of the Radical Right who specializes in mapping the spread of far-right propaganda.

Cruz last week posted a video extolling Russia’s brutish he-man troops that was juxtaposed against a U.S. Army recruitment video featuring a woman.

“Holy crap,” snapped Cruz. “Perhaps a woke, emasculated military is not the best idea,” he tweeted in a pointed dig at American troops. He later tweeted that U.S. troops were at risk of becoming “pansies.”

Hey Ted and Sebastian, go to Russia and stay.

5. Can't we

revoke Gorka's citizenship for seditionist behavior? Seems reasonable to me. Who let the bastard in anyway?

3. So, in 4 years the former guy brought our military "back"

from nothing and now, a little over 4 months later, our military is reverting back to where they claim we once were? At risk of becoming a bunch of pansies?

4. Because you really want to be defended by a bunch of meatheads.

Does Cruz even get that "Hans and Franz" was satire?
