Ted Cruz (R-TX) may not be a favored son of the Left. But when he proposes a bill or amendment that benefits the country or our national security, it should garner consideration from the Left. Let’s look at three instances that did not get one single vote from a Senator across the aisle from Cruz.

A bill stipulating that no stimulus money would be dispersed to any illegal alien. The vote failed 50-50, with Kamala Harris casting the deciding vote.

A bill stipulates that no stimulus money would be dispersed to anyone convicted of a felony and currently incarcerated. The vote failed 50-50, with Kamala Harris casting the deciding vote.

An amendment that would keep Title 42 in place to give us time to work on solving the Border Crisis. The vote failed 50-50, with Kamala Harris casting the deciding vote.

All of these make sense and are meant to spend taxpayer dollars wisely or to strengthen our broken Southern Border. How can not a single Democrat see the value in any of these considerations?

The Democrat Party is so intent on placating the radical wing with a stranglehold on the Democrats. It is more important to be Woke than American. This is why it is almost comical when Biden calls MAGA Republicans or Trumpies enemies of the state or a threat to our democracy. What evidence can he give to show that the Democrats, or Socialists, are working hard to make better the lives of everyday Americans?

The Democrats have always claimed they were the party of the little guy and the downtrodden. They are not doing anything at this time to validate this claim. There has been a flip between the two parties that happened quickly over the last two or three decades. The Dems now are the party of the elite, and the Republicans are now the party of mainstream America. The current policies that have brought us economic, energy, immigration, drug, and crime crisis are Democrat policies that have been brought to us by President Joe Biden. To say that people, especially those of low and middle income, are not only worse off but many have died due to the President’s horrendous policies is not hyperbole.

Cities are turning into cesspools of homeless camps and rampant crime. Schools are not safe or healthy environments, and test scores have plummeted in the last two years. There has been a significant negative impact on our children from CRT and Transgender emphasis but the effect that the teacher’s unions have to shoulder the blame for our education woes. The Democrats have to accept the responsibility for the rest of our challenges.

The midterms should be a massive gain for Republicans if the message of the difference between the two parties gets to the people’s ears. The facts are apparent that the Democrat agenda has harmed America, and we must return to our Conservative roots where the Constitution was our roadmap for this once great country. That roadmap will Make America Great Again.
