I do not like Cruz, thats known. But I did like his comment at the press conference:
U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz was also at the news conference and called for the violence to stop.
"It was two weeks ago today that we saw a political assassination in Utah that tore the heart out of much of this country," he said. "This is the third shooting in Texas directed at ICE or CBP. This must stop. To every politician who is using rhetoric, demonizing ICE, and demonizing CBP. Stop. To every politician demanding that ICE agents be doxed and calling for people to go after their families. Stop. This has very real consequences. Look, in America, we disagree. That's fine. That's the democratic process. But your political opponents are not Nazis. We need to learn to work together without demonizing each other, without attacking each other."
Sen. Cruz said the immigration debate should happen in the halls of Congress instead of with acts of violence.
"Violence has no place. It is wrong and we should come together if we want to have a debate about immigration policies, we can do so in the halls of Congress without demonizing each other, and especially without demonizing the men and women who every day put on a badge and go risk their lives to keep us safe. And we should not be putting language out there that inspires mad men to commit evil crimes," he said.
You're part of the problem.
