Ted Cruz watches Game 6 of the World Series at Minute Maid Park on Saturday, Nov. 5, 2022, in Houston.Ted Cruz rages after Republican Senate losses: 'So pissed off, I cannot even see straight'
,” : Once again, Ted Cruz goes around blaming everyone else for the midterm losses. When he says he is so angry, he cannot see straight, I just shake my head. I am often angry, too, senator. I am angry with your constant negativity. I am angry that you align yourself with others who generate wealth off of taxpayers while doing nothing to actually help the people you serve. You create chaos and double down on the inflammatory speech.
When Ted Cruz rages, he fails to notice that the Republicans who lost senate races were terrible candidates chosen by the small cadre of true believers Cruz calls his base. The Republican party, in thrall to a personality, is incapable of being led at this point. These people are out of line with most of America and are unable to win even with the formidable power of the “never a Democrat” forces carefully groomed by the GOP over the past four decades.
,” : The Republicans are making all sorts of excuses as to why they failed to create a “Red Wave.” I think that they did not do well for the following reasons: their boasting prior to the election of the “Red Wave” likely caused reluctant Democrats to get out and vote and caused reluctant Republicans to stay home. The Republicans’ stance on abortion may have also cost them the young adults’ and women’s vote.
