Hannity doesn’t get enough credit. That piece of shit has been a driving force in ruining this country for almost two decades. He’s basically Tucker Carlson’s daddy.

Cruz is pretending that Mamdani is a “full-on communist”. Spoiler: Mamdani is not a “full-on communist”.
From the article:
” A rattled Ted Cruz gave a grim assessment on the future of the GOP in an emotional Fox News appearance after a series of disastrous electoral results for Republicans.
Appearing on Hannity the day after Democrats swept key races across the country—including Zohran Mamdani’s win as mayor of New York City—the Texas senator didn’t sugarcoat his words.
“Look, last night was a disaster,” Cruz said flatly. “It was an electoral blowout. The results in New Jersey were disastrous. The results in Virginia were terrible. The results in New York—Comrade Mamdani is the face of the Democrat party.”
The comment came after Sean Hannity opened Wednesday’s segment by lamenting what he called “a disaster of a night” for conservatives. “My New York friends are officially depressed and scared,” Hannity said, referring to the election of Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist who will be New York City’s first Muslim mayor.
It was indeed a brutal showing for the GOP. Democrats flipped Virginia’s governorship and added 13 seats to their majority in the state’s House of Delegates. They held the New Jersey governorship, kept all three seats on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, and in California voters approved a ballot measure that lets the Democratic-controlled legislature redraw congressional districts to favor their own party.
Cruz, shaking his head, said it was a wake-up call. “Last night should be a warning sign. It should be a warning sign to Republicans across this country,” he said. “The left, they’re energized. They’re angry. Democrats are outraising Republicans right now, three to one, four to one. It is dangerous.”
He warned that GOP complacency could turn a bad week into a catastrophe. “I think on our side, there are Republicans, and there are just people who are commonsense in the middle, who I fear are feeling happy or feeling potentially complacent,” Cruz continued. “That is really, really dangerous. The left showed up in big numbers last night, and commonsense conservatives did not. If that happens a year from now, we face disaster in the midterms.”
Cruz also took aim at Mamdani personally, calling him “a jihadist”—language that echoed right-wing talking points against the newly elected mayor, who has drawn conservative ire for his support of Palestinian rights.
“We have an actual communist jihadist,” he continued. “It’s important to note, Mamdani is not a socialist. He is a full-on communist. He has called for seizing the means of production in our economy. He is a Marxist. That is profoundly dangerous. And look, I know there’s some Republicans who are saying, ‘Well, gosh, this’ll be good politically because he’ll be the face of the Democrat party.’ I think it’s terrible for America. I think New York is the largest city in America, it is the financial capital of the world, it is the media capital of the world. And New York, we are going to see New Yorkers die.” “

They encouraged populism and believed that Trump was the only one who could do it. They permitted and urged the president to expand his power. Well, now comes the part where Democrats get their own populist. The difference is that liberal populists tend to mess with the rich. So buckle up.

Who could have thought being cruel and racist while at the same time trying to redistribute wealth and establish a monarchy could be so unpopular.
F**k Cruz

Just like his “we must stop attacking pedophiles” remark this is being totally honest (in his mind). He thinks it’ll be terrible because the policies will be shown to work. It’ll be terrible because this might finally snap cult members out of their stupor.

Using the word “scared” for NYC billionaires reacting to mamdani when ICE raided a day care yesterday…. I think those kids were probably “scared”

God forbid Republicans do the right thing and fund healthcare and come to some sort of agreement with half of the country.

Sorry Ted. It can cause a lot of strong feelings the first time you get Bluekakked, but don’t worry, you have plenty of upcoming opportunities to get used to it.

Please remember his name is Rafael Cruz – if he refuses to recognize people’s chosen names why the hell should we recognize his?

I love how Cruz fears Mamdani will be “seizing the means of production” even as Trump is extorting, and getting, large blocks of corporate shares in exchange for political favors.

Victimhood is their brand. They’ll use the election results to grift more money from their donors and cry about the incoming Democratic hellscape-while Republicans hold all three branches of government.

Yes don’t release those Epstein files. Cut SNAP, cut health insurance. Keep that government shut down. Teach us a good lesson!

He’s not devastated and disaster is not looming because the people in power do not give a single fuck about the laws, and are not being held accountable for it. I swear this sub needs to automatically delete anything with action adjectives in the title.

this is great and all – but the the left needs to keep this damn momentum running for the next 5 years. great wins this week but if ANY candidates, political groups, whatever, lay down on their laurels the fucking GOP will walk right back into the show.

Cruz has hollow words like this on occasion but he is still a complicit POS who will continue to vote with his party, and he and all the rest of them are part of the Epstein cover up. All of them.
