Sen. Ted Cruzs (R-TX) argument against the FBI searching Mar-a-Lago and seizing classified documents is truly mind-blowing:
Were a country that has a tradition of the peaceful transfer of power.

(18,714 posts)Is this purely political? Ted's hoping to capitalize on MAGA outrage for votes.
Or
Is this personal? Ted has some secret that is so heinous he must fight in support of Trump in outrageous ways to keep it hidden. Whether that's the fact he's involved in Trump's crimes or if Trump has some type of kompromat over him, it doesn't matter.
At some point, Trump is going to become so toxic that these leeches will be forced to rectify the stances they are taking now with civilized society.

(5,060 posts)How is the guy who stole secret documents to keep them from his successor for over a year not the one to blame for not following rules on "transfer of power"? Like at least try to follow logic and not spill BS.

Just in case your level of stupid can't grasp basic facts, Cruz.

(60,436 posts)With some Republican-style January 6th style "peaceful" on his own doorstep, he might seek a re-definition VERY quickly.
"Hey, Ted? There are six hundred guys at the door with guns and baseball bats."
"What? Why? What do they want?"
"They say they are here to peacefully discuss transferring power with you."
