Sen. Ted Cruz: 'What Steve King said was stupid'
SOME of you people are giving me grief for not being down with white supremacy. Nice. Anyway, Ted Cruz, longtime friend of King, also called him out:
EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Ted Cruz responds to Rep. Steve King's comments: “What Steve King said was stupid. It was stupid, it was hurtful, it was wrong. And he needs to stop it.”
SEN. TED CRUZ: "Well, listen. Tim is a good man and a good friend. He and I have worked together on many, many issues. What Steve King said was stupid. It was stupid. It was hurtful. It was wrong. And he needs to stop. I think all of us ought to be united, regardless of party, in saying, white supremacism, white nationalism, is hatred. It is bigotry. It is evil. It is wrong. And I think we need that clarity. And I'm certainly going to urge everyone to provide that clarity."
From the Hill:
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Sunday condemned Rep. Steve King’s (R-Iowa) remarks about white supremacy, calling them “stupid” and saying that King “needs to stop.”Cruz also said lawmakers should be “united regardless of party” in calling white supremacy and white nationalism “hatred” and “bigotry.”“What Steve King said was stupid. It was stupid, it was hurtful, it was wrong. And he needs to stop it,” Cruz said during an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”“I think all of us ought to be united, regardless of party, in saying white supremacism, white nationalism is hatred, it is bigotry, it is evil, it is wrong,” Cruz added. “And I think we need that clarity. And I’m certainly going to urge everyone to provide that clarity.”
Yes, Cruz is well known Canadian Supremacist, but if HE thinks this is bad, surely we can’t just act like this is media bias…
