is cruz on the verge of losing his seat, probably not. but i think a few dems in texas voted for ice funding, and they are afraid to lose thier seats(they ice facilities in thier district)
I gotta say, I agree with both their statements.
Sucks to suck
The next president will promise to fix everything that Trump broke. I'm sure of it.
And then not
Is upvoting this bad juju?
Fuck man it might be
Edit: gonna down vote it to be safe
Inshallah
I look forward to this "bloodbath'. Sounds like a good time.
Eat shit MAGAt morons!
Ngl Ted being privately concerned about the midterms is the biggest "sign of life" that we will be having midterms.
This article is about a phone conversation in early 2025, so don't be so sure about those elections.
Actually, Trump's reaction may be.
If he would have said "Don't worry" with his trademark schoolyard mafioso wannabe smirk, then it would be worrying.
Mr President, if we get to November of [2026] and people’s 401(k)s are down 30% and prices are up 10–20% at the supermarket, we’re going to go into election day, face a bloodbath
Wow, I agree with something Ted Cruz said. That doesn't happen often.
fuck you, Ted
And I agree with something Trump said? On the same day, no less. What are the odds?
Thirty percent? Is that all it would take?
You ever talked a weed republican? Stingiest people on earth. I could see them not voting.
(They used to be called 'libertarians' but its clear now they don't give a shit about rights, just weed)
Ted Cruz deserves the guillotine.
he will just grow a new head as reptilian alien humanoid.
Don't amplify this greasy shit-weasel's attempt to distance himself from the fascist regime he's been taint-suckling for years. The only next Cruz headline that is relevant will be "Cruz resigns in humiliation and disgrace..."
cruz neither feels shame, disgrace or humiliation he has a kink for it.
Oh I completely agree, I just don't care if he's pulling his teensy semi about it; the important part is that he not be in the position of authority lol
"[Y]ou’re going to spend the next two years being impeached every single week.”
Ted Cruz has more faith in Democrats than I do.
They shouldn't impeach Trump every week. Some weeks we should impeach Noem, Clarence Thomas, Besset, Hegseth, Mike Johnson, and a bunch of others.
If we're feeling festive one week, hell, we'll impeach him twice!
To be fair, I don't know if there's a person on earth who doesnt want to say "Fuck you Ted" to Ted Cruz. Hate Trump, don't blame him for that one though.
Even a broken clock hates Ted Cruz as they say
There's not a single person on earth?? That's a bit of an exaggeration. The people of Texas continue voting for "Fled Cruz"...
he recently fled to california, to avoid "freezing to death" so he can shed his reptilian skin.
Raphael Cruz is learning about leopards eating faces.
I love it when the GOP base fractures!
Fuck the WHOLE GOP
The WH has become a sieve and I'm here for it.
I just wish the Whitehouse was boring again.
Remember the days when sex between consenting adults was a scandal?
you’re going to spend the next two years being impeached every single week.
What a wonderful dream!
I believe there won't be elections any more. And if there are, they won't be free. And if they're free, the count will be falsified. And if it's not, it won't be certified. And if it is, it will be dismissed by a regime-aligned court...
And I believe this is an astroturf talking point because fascists don't have immutable power until you believe they have immutable power.
Trump is losing the narrative. He spent so much time talking about Biden and Obama policies and how he was going to fix them, and then when he implemented his fixes and they didn't work, he just doubled down that they did because back then, his sycophants just believed anything he said. Now that everyone can see him for what he is, he can't hide behind the lies anymore. Even my parents, who were staunch supporters of his during both elections, have gone quiet. Couple that with the current state of ICE, his threats to Canada and Greenland (and Iceland by idiot-proxy), and the glossing of the Epstein files, there is a lot of ammo against the Republicans going into Midterms. Its no wonder he keeps pawing around the idea of skipping them entirely. He's running out of time before falling over the cliff. Trump got away with what he did because he was a useful idiot. However, they overfed the beast and he got fat. Now he's gotten too large and is blocking the progress that the GOP thought it was going to make. How long before they stuff his bloated political corpse full of dynamite and blow him off the beach?
Add to that prez is losing his mind, such as it was. He lost what little internal screen he had, falls asleep at national televised meetings, and is being led by the project 2025 people in the party that got him to betray his america 1st, (as if there was any doubt to us,) and his populist rhetoric stops where the plutocracy starts, as the party keeps him occupied to not upset interests that would help his popularity.
Look at mamdami, or petro of colombia, enemies of the party, they left him alone with each for 20 minutes and he is best pals with them, as his handlers face palm and distract him elsewhere, look at that shiny trophy!
Obviously gerrymanders give them advantage but they are getting too greedy, not leaving enough margin, which is how they lost 2018. But they do plan on cheating every way they can. Of dishonoring results. And the opposition is chosen to be weak and responds to r fake populism by copying them instead of their own popular rhetoric. Sold out and we all know it.
So while they should lose the house, we are still bereft of popular leadership, of a leader that can build and run a political machine, and promises to restore the republic.
There is also evidence the economy may be motivating those who voted for Trump in 2024 but now disapprove of him
"Single issue voters have been stung by the other thing he said he would do, but they didn't listen to, because wasn't that one thing they were bothered about."
This screams for Untergang Hitler video.
Is Raphael still in California, or has he returned to TX now that the storm is over?
Puta merda. What a punchable face.
We all know Raphael doesn't have a spine, if he's willing to say this, it means trump has already lost massive support not only from Republicans but the donors who back them.
