Cruz denounces Trump's call for China to probe Bidens

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) denounced President Donald Trump’s call for China to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter, becoming one of only a handful of Republican senators to openly criticize the brazen request for foreign interference in the 2020 election.

“Of course not,” Cruz said to host Margaret Brennan during an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that aired Sunday, when questioned whether it was appropriate for Trump to ask Beijing to probe the Biden family.

“Elections in the U.S. should be decided by Americans, and it's not the business of foreign countries, any foreign countries, to be interfering in our elections,” he continued.

Trump earlier this month declared from the White House lawn that the governments of China and Ukraine should investigate the Bidens — despite facing an impeachment inquiry by House Democrats for pressuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to do just that during a July phone call.

Yeah but he'll be back to kissing up to Trump soon.
