Ted Cruz: “Last night was an audition for who would wear the JACKBOOT most vigorously!”

I’ve been waiting all day for someone to post the full video of this, but alas, it hasn’t happened yet. So for now you’ll just have to watch a couple of short videos or read the awesome words of Ted Cruz as he nails last night’s debate:

THE HILL – Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said on Wednesday that he is troubled by the ideas offered during the first Democratic presidential debate.

“It was a recipe to destroy a country,” he told a crowd in Kalona, Iowa, according to The Dallas Morning News.

“It was more socialism, more pacifism, more weakness and less Constitution,” Cruz, who is running for the Republican presidential nomination, said of the Tuesday evening debate in Las Vegas.

“We’re seeing our freedoms taken away, and last night was an audition for who would wear the jackboot most vigorously,” he added. “Last night was an audition for who would embrace government power [and] strip your and my individual liberties.”

Cruz then argued that the Democratic field is not distancing itself from President Obama’s policies.

“Every one of the Democratic candidates is agreed on doubling down on the failed Obama strategies,” he said.

“So it was really quite interesting for America to see each and every Democratic candidate explain how they’re every bit as socialist as [Sen.] Bernie Sanders [I-Vt.] is,” Cruz said.

“It was interesting for America to see each and every Democratic candidate explain how what we need is an even weaker America — [how we should] avoid any conflict whatsoever with Iran, with Russia, with ISIS, with the lunatics who want to kill us,” he said.
