(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) — Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos that President Trump has “broken the Democratic Party” and that Democrats are solely focused on “hating him.”
ABC host George Stephanopoulos mentioned Cruz’s warning that Texas could be a potential background state in the 2020 presidential election and noted that five Republican House members from the state have come forward saying they would not seek reelection next year.
Cruz claimed that the third Democratic presidential debate in Houston on Thursday was a “very bad night” for Democrats because the candidates did not mention the economy’s relative strength through the third quarter of this year.
