Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is getting mocked online for his outlandish taunt about Democrats.
“This is not your father’s Democrat party,” Cruz said on Fox Business. “These are a bunch of transgender, wacko socialists.”

For context, if the Inflation Reduction Act is passed, it’ll reduce the deficit by over $300 billion and taxes won’t go up for anyone making under $400,000 a year. pic.twitter.com/OakON1Jbgh

Not exactly your father’s Republican Party either. They’re a bunch of cult-following, Putin-loving, fascists. And you’ve got common sense conservative Repubs like Liz Cheney saying “I don’t recognize these people”.

This is how Republicans talk about us and our Dem leaders call them friends across the aisle. They should call them forced birthers & veteran hating liars

It’s almost as if Ted Cruz’s mission at this stage in life is to be the #1 most hated person.

Translation- “fear, fear, fear, fear. We are the party of fear.”

Idk, my Dad thought the Dems of the 80s and 90s were wacko socialists too and his Dad thought the Dems of the 1930s-1960s we wacko socialists. I think it’s pretty standard lazy Republican rhetoric.

With extreme Democrats, I get paid maternity leave, with extreme Republicans I get a Senator in my doctor’s office.
