Ted Cruz claims Democrats view him as their primary target amidst increased funding and immigration in Texas
Senator Ted Cruz from Texas implied that the Biden administration might be intentionally prolonging the border crisis with the expectation that the affected immigrants would eventually lean towards voting for the Democratic party in the future. This statement was made during a discussion on a news program. During a news program discussion, Senator Ted Cruz suggested that the Biden administration could be deliberately extending the border crisis, possibly to sway affected immigrants to support the Democratic party in the future.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) suggested the Biden administration is allowing the border crisis to continue in the hopes that the immigrants become “future Democrat voters.”
Cruz appeared on Fox News’s Hannity on Wednesday to comment on President Joe Biden’s campaign efforts in Texas. A Democratic candidate hasn’t won the state since 1976, when Jimmy Carter was elected for a single term.
“Let’s be clear: The 10.4 million illegal immigrants that Joe Biden and the Democrats have let in — have deliberately let in — they’re letting them in because they view them as future Democrat voters. They hope as many of them as possible will vote illegally right now,” Cruz said. “They want them to stay in Texas — they want them to be in Florida — because they want to flip our states. Look, if they bring a million illegal immigrants into Texas, and they vote Democrat, Texas is in real trouble. That’s what the Democrats are aiming at. It’s why they are flooding our state.”
Texas law enforcement has apprehended 506,500 illegal immigrants since it began its own border security efforts in the form of “Operation Lone Star” in March 2021. It has offloaded over 108,000 immigrants by transporting them to various “sanctuary cities,” such as Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, New York City, and Chicago, among others.
“We got to fight to defend Texas. If we lose Texas, we lose the whole country,” Cruz said.
