Mitch McConnell continues to prove that he’s no friend to the conservative movement.
He’s prepared to hand Democrats an unexpected victory.
And Mitch McConnell stabbed conservatives in the back with this awful betrayal.
Ted Cruz warns Mitch McConnell is hanging him out to dry
U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and RINO Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) have been feuding for years.
McConnell’s goal is to help Republicans flip control of the Senate this election but he could be prepared to live with losing Cruz who’s been a thorn in his side.
Senate Democrats are clinging to a slim 51-49 majority heading into Election Day.
They have to defend Democrat-held Senate seats in the red states of West Virginia, Montana, and Ohio.
A tough Senate map for Democrats means that their best pickup opportunity is in Texas where Cruz is running for re-election.
Representative Collin Allred (D-TX) is running against Cruz and national Democrats are pouring money into his campaign because he could be the party’s only hope of holding the Senate.
Cruz warned Fox News host Sean Hannity that he’s being “viciously outspent” in the race.
Most polls out of Texas have found that he has a four to five-point lead over Allred – a former NFL player for the Tennessee Titans.
But a recent poll from the Senate Leadership Fund – a super PAC aligned with McConnell – found that Cruz was only leading by one after having a three-point edge in September.
McConnell is using any campaign resources to protect his Senate foe.
Ted Cruz slams McConnell for not helping him
Cruz told Fox News host Mark Levin that he hasn’t received “a penny” from the Senate Leadership Fund despite it being one of the biggest super PACs helping Senate Republicans during an appearance on Life, Liberty & Levin.
“Mitch McConnell runs the largest Republican super PAC in the country and has $400 million but that super PAC is used to reward the Republican senators who obey him and to punish those who dare to stand up him,” Cruz explained.
He pointed out that he faced similar tough circumstances during his re-election during the “Blue Wave” of the 2018 Midterm Elections.
“In 2018, I was in what was at the time the most expensive Senate race in U.S. history,” Cruz said. “I was being outspent 3-to-1. He had $300 million, he spent zero in Texas. I won anyway but barely, by less than 3 points.”
This year, he warned that Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was pouring millions into his race after the Democrat seat in Montana began to look out of reach.
“Schumer is spending millions,” Cruz stated. “And yet he’s [McConnell] spent zero.”
The Texas lawmaker pointed out that he’s not the first Senate conservative to be thrown overboard by McConnell.
He noted that McConnell spent nothing helping U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) in a tough race in the 2016 Election.
McConnell spent millions helping RINO U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) in the 2022 Midterm Elections while not giving a penny to U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT).
“It is disgusting to me what Mitch McConnell does and has done,” Levin said. “It’s disgusting to me, the Republican ruling class — Liz Cheney comes into Texas, campaigns against you, endorses your radical left-wing opponent, endorses Harris. These people are just so appalling to me, it’s unbelievable.”
Mitch McConnell would be fine with the Senate having fewer conservatives.
