Ted Cruz Submits His Midterm Review. Conveniently, It Skips One Key Part of the Story.
Ted Cruz published a lengthy outline on Wednesday of why he thinks the GOP got crushed in the midterms, admitting the affordability crisis drew many Republican voters to cast their ballots for Democrats. He named the Iran War, bad candidates, and the Canada trade war as the other top reasons.
You know what he didn’t discuss? Israel. Cruz’s write-up was nearly 1,800 words, and it never mentioned America’s “special ally.” Considering that economics caused the blue tsunami, the Iran War played a huge role in tanking the economy, and Israel caused the Iran War, one would think the Israelis would at least get a mention in any summary of what went wrong.
