Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
Joe Biden says U.S. Senators Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Josh Hawley (R-Texas) should be “thoroughly defeated” in the next election because of their involvement in spreading “The big lie” (the big lie). The two senators fired back, denouncing Biden’s use of words as comparing them to Nazis.
Asked on Friday (Jan. 8) whether Cruz and Hawley should resign, Biden said, “I think they should be totally defeated in the next campaign,” according to Fox News. Other Democrats have also called on Cruz to give up his seat.
Biden said people like Cruz and Hawley are a small minority in the Republican Party. “The American public has really seen what they are, and they are part of the ‘big lie,’ the ‘big lie.'”
“The Big Lie” was a term coined by Nazi Germany. Joseph Goebbels, the minister of national education and propaganda in Nazi Germany, who was known as a “propaganda genius,” once said, “If you tell a lie big enough and repeat it over and over, the people will eventually start to believe it. .”
Both Senators Cruz and Hawley exercised their constitutional right to oppose Biden’s fraudulent election when Congress met in joint session on Wednesday.
In response to Biden’s attack, Cruz responded on his personal Twitter account, saying, “Really sad. At a time when the country is deeply divided, President-elect Biden, has chosen to call his political opponents literal Nazis. This does nothing to bring us together or promote healing.”
He added, “Such vicious partisan rhetoric. It will only tear our country apart.”
In a statement, Hawley shot back, “President-elect Biden just compared me and another Republican senator to Nazis, and you read that correctly. Think about it.” “Just because I challenged Pennsylvania’s election practices within the format required by U.S. law, as Democrats did to other states in 2001, 2005 and 2017, he called me a Nazi.”
Hawley also noted that Biden’s comments were “unseemly, immature and over-the-top. It was completely shameful.
He then said, “He should act like a dignified adult and retract these disgusting comments, and every Democratic member of Congress should be required to reject them.”
Cruz and Hawley previously led a Congressional Senate challenge to Biden’s electoral votes in a number of contested states. many lawmakers withdrew their objections to the electoral votes after the Jan. 6 congressional onslaught, but the pair persisted in their call to reject the certified results.
Biden said Cruz and Hawley are just as responsible as President Trump (R-Texas) for insisting there was electoral fraud. He also praised other Republicans who held opposing views to Trump on the matter, such as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Senator Mitt Romney (R-Ky.), saying he was “proud of them “The Republicans, like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sen.
