REMEMBER THE DEMOCRATS COME MIDTERMS THEY GAVE US THIS SMUCK
Cruz: 'Joe Biden becoming president is the best thing that ever happened, tragically, for Vladimir Putin'
CAN JOE BIDEN EVER TELL THE TRUTH... NO, HE'S A DEMOCRAT!!! |
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) blasted President Biden on Sunday for what he described as his enabling of Russia's aggression toward Ukraine, saying Biden's presidency was the "best thing" that had happened for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Ted Cruz slams Biden's State of the Union speech"No, it hasn't worked at all. If you look at what the Ukrainians want, they've been very explicit," Cruz said. "They've asked the United States explicitly, 'Put sanctions on Nord Stream 2, right now, today.' Joe Biden could do that this morning. He refuses to do it. And they said, number two, provide lethal military aid, give us the weapons to defend ourselves."
Cruz argued that Senate support for sanctions against the Nord Stream 2 pipeline has changed solely because of who is sitting in the Oval Office and accused Democrats of voting "in favor" of Russia.
"Joe Biden came to Capitol Hill and personally lobbied Democratic senators to vote against Russian sanctions. That's why we're facing this invasion. I gotta say, Bill, Joe Biden becoming president is the best thing that ever happened, tragically, for Vladimir Putin," said Cruz.
The Biden administration has vowed to issue "unprecedented" and "crippling" sanctions against Russia if it invades Ukraine. On Saturday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called on Western governments to issue preemptive sanctions against Moscow.
Biden said last week that he was "convinced" that Russia was planning on invading Ukraine, though members of his administration have said that diplomatic paths toward de-escalation are still on the table.
