Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz said this week following Donald Trump’s debate with Vice President Kamala Harris that the former president needs to be laser-focused on Harris’ past statements, policy positions, and rhetoric because voters need to be reminded of just how radical they are.

Cruz sat for an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, where the two discussed the Tuesday debate.

“I mean, and there’s so much that we don’t understand. Defund, dismantle, reimagine ICE, the police, the Minneapolis, they wanted to talk about January 6th. There was 600 riots in the summer of 2020,” Hannity began. “She tweets out the Minnesota, the Minnesota Bail Fund four days after the police precinct is burned.

“And, you know, ‘they won’t stop. They shouldn’t stop. We’re not going to stop,’ — all things that she said. Eighteen to 24-year-olds are stupid. Abolish the filibuster to pass the Green New Deal. Inflation is transitory. The border is secure. We’re proud of ‘Bidenomics’. The country needs to be woke. We’ll never deport illegals. And now we’re going to give free sex change operations to convicted felons and illegal immigrants. How’s that going to go over in your state of Texas? I would imagine not so well,” Hannity added.

“Look, it goes over terribly. But what you just did, what I just did, is what the Trump campaign needs to do between now and Election Day, which is lay out the actual facts of her record because she won’t confront them,” Cruz responded. “So, for example, on abortion, she said ‘no, no, no, I’m not for late-term abortions, eight and nine month abortions.’ Well, she has voted for legislation that would legalize abortion up until the moment of birth.

“When she says ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about, abortion after birth,’ well, Kamala Harris voted against the Born-Alive Infant Protection Act, which said — says that if in the course of an abortion, a baby is alive, is breathing, is outside the womb, you can’t just kill the baby. She voted no.

“And so, her actual record needs to be systematically laid out when it comes to crime. This is someone who has supported defund the police. This is someone who has supported defund ICE. This is someone, Kamala Harris, who compared ICE, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, to the KKK,” the Texas Republican continued.

“But we need to make sure those facts get before the American people because ABC is not going to do it. The corporate media is not going to do it. And, listen, her radical record is radical the same way my opponent, Colin Allred, who’s running against me,” he went on. “Both of them vote repeatedly in favor of open borders. Both of them vote for trillions of dollars of spending we don’t have. Both of them vote for the war against oil and gas and American energy. Both of them vote in favor of defunding the police. That’s their record. But I got to tell you, the left right now, they are flooding money to Kamala Harris. They’re flooding money to my opponent because they want to deceive the American people.

“Both Kamala Harris and my opponent are running ads with Donald Trump’s border wall in it, even though both of them have opposed it their entire careers. The hypocrisy is enormous. Which is why we need to bring the facts back up and prosecute this case on the merits,” Cruz concluded.

Former Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. shredded Harris and the ABC moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, following her debate against Trump. In an appearance on Newsmax TV, RFK Jr. noted that one of the main electoral issues this cycle is inflation and the economy, issues that Harris never addressed.

“We have a first-generation of American kids who can’t get into homes. We have the unaffordability at the gas station, at the grocery store. People who are downgrading ingredients to make it through the checkout counter, elderly people who are cutting up their prescriptions to pay for food or fuel,” the former Democrat said.
