Ted Cruz in Sunday Political Talk Show interviews during 2020-2024


On Government Reform: Bring Supreme Court case against mail-in ballots

Sen. Ted Cruz agreed to give the oral arguments before the Supreme Court in a potentially major election case out of Pennsylvania because it "raises pure issues of law." Cruz, a former law professor at the University of Texas Law School in Austin, was the first U.S. senator to publicly support the case. They claim that a 2019 state law allowing no-excuse mail-in voting is unconstitutional. By not counting mail-in ballots, President Donald Trump would win in Pennsylvania, KDKA-TV reported.

On Principles & Values: One-time critic of Trump ready to argue case on his behalf

Trump personally asked Cruz to represent Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's lawsuit challenging election procedures in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin. By his own account, Cruz is now committed to defending an amoral, narcissistic, unprincipled, utterly dishonest bully. Whatever credit the Cruz of 2016 deserved for telling the truth about Trump has dissolved in a bath of cowardly sycophancy drawn by a politician who is terrified of alienating the president's supporters.
