The junior senator from Texas gets pushback for publishing a race-baiting "Blame Whitey" tweet that is undermining President Trumps' uniting America First agenda.
Browse the Twitter feeds of Hollywood celebrities and you'll find tweets similar to this one from JT supporting a fund to bail thugs responsible for rioting, looting and setting fire to major cities across the country out of jail.
Most disturbing though is the race-baiting, blame whitey response from Texas Senator Ted Cruz that is not only undermining Presidents Trumps' unifying America First agenda but calls into question what is on the minds of James Dickey and the Republican Party of Texas (emphasis mine):
Justin, how about giving your millions to a fund to help the African-American and Hispanic small businesses that are being burned & looted, rather than a fund to bail out the spoiled (often white) ANTIFA terrorists who are destroying minority communities? https://t.co/klWyoy4fwn— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) June 1, 2020
Are the rioters worse because they're "often white"? https://t.co/VNgiXQJFTc— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) June 1, 2020
This is predicated on a presumption that the arrested are mostly white outside agitators- not saying Cruz is wrong but I’m wondering, do we know this to be true?1 https://t.co/gxGRALoTpw— (((Ron Kampeas))) (@kampeas) June 1, 2020
But the most severe lashing of Cruz comes from the University of Tampa College Republicans:
Ted Cruz is a moron. He’s basically blaming white people for these riots. These types of conservatives are the enemy. https://t.co/n3GpM5vTAz— University of Tampa College Republicans (@UTampaGOP) June 1, 2020
Painting a broad brush of blame for the death of George Floyd on the immutable characteristic of skin color is repugnant.
As an elected official representing the State of Texas in the United States Senate Senator Ted Cruz, IMHO should stop listening to the race hustling, grievance mongers in the Republican Party of Texas who think that tactic is a way to turn out the vote in the upcoming July 14, 2020 primary run-offs.
The country needs law and order restored.
