“If the Democrats win in Georgia, then we are one vote away ending the filibuster. And I believe Joe Manchin would switch to Chuck Schumer if that happened. They’d end filibuster,” said he.
He stated that the Democrats wanted to end the filibuster by doing the following: They want to repeal every voter integrity law, every photo ID law, legalize ballot harvesting across America and register millions of illegal aliens all over America to vote.
They want D.C. to be a state with two new Democrat senators. And they want to register millions illegal aliens to make it a citizen. He said that Democrats want all of this to ensure that they remain in power forever, as power is their priority.

Cruz responded to a question about Warnock’s campaign trail boasting of his work with Cruz to sponsor legislation as proof that his bipartisanship was evident. Cruz stated that he was “glad” the bill which created an interstate highway connecting Texas, Georgia, and the Atlantic Ocean was passed, because it was “good for their respective states.
He said, however, Warnock was using one example bipartisanship to cover-up lying about his Senate vote record that would not have been favored by most Georgians.

“It says something that he is campaigning on that issue when his voting record has been among the most liberal in the U.S. Senate. Cruz stated that it was “hard left”.
“He voted for open borders. He and I did not agree on that. He voted to confirm the supporters of removing police officers from senior DOJ positions. We opposed that,” he stated, before noting several other policy points Warnock said he supported, including the ones “that caused the rampant inflation.”

“Imagine that Raphael Warnock was your wakeup call. He said that you can’t run on the truth of what you believe, which is socialism. Georgians don’t believe it.” Democrats win when they lie about their records and what they believe. Republicans win when they effectively tell the truth because Georgians and Americans believe in conservative commonsense values.
