Exclusive – Ted Cruz Boils Biden Presidency Down to 3 Words: ‘Boring but Radical’ – By Ashley Oliver (Breitbart) / Mar 9 2021
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) told Breitbart News he sees the first six weeks of Democrat President Joe Biden’s time in office as “boring but radical.”
Cruz’s comments came in a lengthy on-camera nearly 30-minute-long exclusive interview with Breitbart News on Thursday morning in his U.S. Senate office in Washington, DC. The interview, one of the more in-depth ones he has done since Biden took over the White House and Democrats swept into complete control in Washington, focused on the early days of the Biden presidency, key policy issues such as China and immigration, and Democrat and media hypocrisy as demonstrated by their handling of his recent trip to Cancun. Cruz also addressed the growing concerns of many Republicans that Texas may be slipping away from the GOP’s grasp, explaining new trends in politics where working-class voters are shifting towards Republicans but suburban women are moving towards Democrats.
Cruz in the interview first railed against Biden’s cabinet nominees, though his disapproval of them comes as little surprise as he has been one of the most dissenting senators during the confirmation process, voting against 11 of the 13 cabinet members so far confirmed.
He reiterated concerns he has conveyed during hearings, in which he grilled now-Ambassador to the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield for a pro-China speech she gave at a Confucius Institute in 2019 and chastised now-Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo for refusing to commit to keeping Chinese companies, especially Huawei — which he describes as “basically an espionage agency” that “masquerades as a telecom company” — on the U.S. Entity List.
