Ted Cruz, Super Senator and The Justice League
Senator Ted Cruz has stepped up in support of President Trump and our Republic. He could have easily gone the McConnell and Romney route, but instead he’s doing the right thing along with eleven other Republican senators.
“We will together object to certification in order to force the appointment of an emergency commission to perform an audit of the election results. We have an obligation to the voters and the Constitution to ensure this election was lawful,” said Cruz.
Right on, senator. This is all the president and his supporters want. A fair and transparent audit of the votes. It will reveal blatant voter fraud including dead people voting, Chinese fake ballots on pallets, fake signatures and addresses,Trump votes getting shredded, and Dominion voting machine switches to Biden. The evidence will be overwhelming. Biden could barely draw 100 people to his ‘rallies,’ whereas Trump consistently drew enormous crowds. Biden scored a mere six percent in Gallup’s poll of the most admired man. Trump won that poll by a landslide and he won the election by a landslide.
I know I have been tough on Cruz in cartoons drawn during the 2016 presidential election. He didn’t deserve my ridicule back then, but…well, editorial cartoonists can be mean. Let me make amends with this cartoon. My kudos to Senator Cruz and his Justice League of 11 other superheroes. They will be doing the right thing. Let’s hope Mike Pence joins them.

In hindsight (January 12), you were right the first time. Cruz tucked tail and ran, politically speaking, after the invasion of the Capitol on January 6. He was not doing the right thing. He was doing the EXPEDIENT thing when he pretended to defend our election system. I would not be surprised if some of the top Republicans, like Cruz, did not know of the plan to invite the “insurrection” by having so little security at the Capitol. This way they hoped to appear both good little Republicans, and supporters of the establishment. We really wanted to support Trump, they say, but now we just can’t. Problem is, Trump supporters have five years experience in gaslighting so we are not falling for it anymore.
