Ted Cruz hs come up with a plan to force the Democrats to take a firm stand on their take on the killing of Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani.
He will be offering up a resolution praising the actions of President Trump in eliminating the threat of the world’s premiere terrorist.
This will force Democrats to make an official stand on the killing and whether they think it was a plus or a minus for our country.
This becomes very dangerous for Democrats, especially for Sen Doug Jones of Alabama and Sen Gary Peters of Michigan who are seen as extremely vulnerable.
If they vote against the resolution and their doom and gloom scenario they have been trying to sell does not occur, it will put them in a bad light.
They do not want that on their record, but on the other hand they do not want to hand the president a victory on the subject.
I expect he will offer his resolution this coming week and then it comes down to how the three RINOs vote.
Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski and Mitt Romney.
If the Republicans hold the rest of their caucus or if one or two Democrats vote for the resolution it will pass.
With all three RINOs voting against will make it a tie vote and VO Mike Pence breaks all ties.
Senator Ted Cruz wants Democrats to publicly declare their feelings on the Trump Administration’s mission to kill Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani, and his office reports that they have constructed and are circulating a Senate resolution praising the attack.
According to Fox News, Cruz wants Senate Democrats — including a handful of contenders for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination — to go on the record on where they stand regarding Soleimani, particularly given that many have expressed concerns and reservations in the wake of the drone strike that left Solemani and a handful of Iranian and Iraqi military officials dead.
Per the senator’s aides who spoke to Fox News on Friday, Cruz’s resolution is “structured and worded the same way as a 2011 resolution commending the Obama Administration” for locating and eliminating terror mastermind and Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
