Ted Cruz Is Getting Nervous He's Going to Lose His Senate Seat

The Texas senator’s questionable podcast deal with iHeartMedia is raising eyebrows amid his increasingly desperate fundraising efforts

THE WALLS ARE closing in around Ted Cruz, and the Republican senator is lashing out. 

Cruz, who has served two terms as Texas junior senator, is facing a tough reelection challenge from former NFL player and current U.S. Rep. ​​Colin Allred (D-Texas), who won Texas’ Democratic Senate primary in a landslide victory last month. 

On Wednesday, Cruz begged for donation on Fox News while complaining that Allred is out fundraising his 2018 challenger, former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke, by leaps and bounds. 

“The Democrats are coming after me, they are gonna spend more than $100 million this year, George Soros is already spending millions of dollars in the state of Texas,” Cruz told Sean Hannity. “My opponent a liberal Democrat named Colin Allred, is out raising Beto O’Rourke, my last opponent, 3 to 1. They are flooding millions of dollars into Texas — and the reason is simple. You remember my last reelection, it was a 3-point race. I won by 2.6 percent.”

What is the GOP going to do when Soros passes? He has been their boogeyman for so long they will need to replace him somehow.

"Soros" is mostly a way of saying "Jew" with plausible deniability. There are plenty of other ways to do that

They tend to list the rothschilds or whatever. They'll come up with more bullshit, they always do.

Mostly they like to scapegoat soros because he's jewish even though he's got like 1/10 the funds of musk

Bill Gates is up next. They had a trial run already with COVID conspiracies.

They’ll start a conspiracy theory about how he didn’t really die, and is actually immortal on account of all of the adrenochrome injections harvested from trafficked children by the satanic democratic cabal.

I am now dumber for having written that.

He'll just be replaced by the Ghost of Soros in a very effective Scooby-doo-esque campaign because that's how their base rolls.

They'll have Elon Musk spread more lies on Twitter about migrants illegally voting or something.
