Ted Cruz believes Ukraine ‘blatantly interfered’ in the 2016 election; people on the set laugh out loud

“Because Russia interfered, the media pretends nobody else did. Ukraine blatantly interfered in our election. The sitting ambassador from Ukraine wrote an op-ed blasting Donald Trump during the election season. … It’s hysterical two years ago there was article after article after article in the mainstream media about Ukrainian interference in the elections, but now, the Democrats have no evidence of a crime. No evidence of violating the law. And so suddenly Ukraine interference is treated as the media clutches their pearls, oh my goodness, you can’t say that! Last week, Chuck, you called Sen. John Kennedy basically a stooge for Putin.”

— Ted Cruz to Chuck Todd Meet the Press 12-8-19.

Shilling for Trump and perpetuating Russian propaganda has many people wondering if Ted Cruz actually recalls all the nasty comments and false allegations Trump made about him during the 2016 primary.

From The Washington Post:

  • Trump retweeted an unflattering photo of Cruz’s wife, Heidi, juxtaposed with his wife, Melania.
  • Trump threatened to “spill the beans” on Heidi Cruz. We’re not entirely sure what this meant. But it was certainly a threat.
  • Trump suggested that Cruz’s father may have been involved in the Kennedy assassination.
  • Trump breathed life into the Cruz “birther” conspiracy. Trump suggested strongly early in the primary season that Cruz might not be eligible to serve as president, given his birth in Canada to an American citizen.
  • Trump said he wouldn’t even accept Cruz’s endorsement.
  • Trump attacked Cruz’s faith.
That can apply to numerous Fundies.
