Ted Cruz Gets Jealous Of Trump Coverage, Lashes Out At Obama To Feel Better About Himself

July 30, 2015 By Allen Clifton

Since the Obama administration, the U.N. and many of our allies agreed with Iran on a nuclear deal, the rhetoric coming from the Republican party has been absolutely absurd. From Mike Huckabee suggesting that this brings Jews “to the door of the oven,” to many Republicans suggesting this will bring about WWIII, it’s almost comical how these folks have acted.

Then again, this is really nothing new. After all, these are the same people who’ve compared the Affordable Care Act to Nazi Germany and insisted that climate change is all some giant liberal hoax.

Well, Sen. Ted Cruz took it up a notch by essentially saying that with this deal, President Obama has now become the largest sponsor of terrorism in the world.

“If this deal is consummated, it will make the Obama administration the world’s leading financier of radical Islamic terrorism,” Cruz said. “Billions of dollars under control of this administration will flow into the hands of jihadists who will use that money to murder Americans, to murder Israelis, to murder Europeans.

Those are the sorts of comments I’m talking about when I say it’s impossible to take these people seriously. There are ways to go about objecting to something without the outrageous rhetoric Republicans often use. It’s one thing to dislike a president’s policies, but to hear Republicans talk they really do view him as an enemy to the United States – which is absolutely appalling.
