Sen. [crscore]Ted Cruz[/crscore] has suggested that Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton would be an embarrassment to America — and that he would not be.
During a press gaggle in Osceola, Indiana on Monday, Cruz said, “Let me ask every parent at home, think forward to the next four years. Do you want to turn on the television and see a president, Republican or Democrat, who embarrasses you, who would make you feel embarrassed if your children came and spoke the words uttered by the president?”
“You know, the presidency, we have had leaders who have inspired us,” Cruz said. “FDR told us ‘the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.’ John F. Kennedy told us, ‘Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.’ The president has a unique role as a bully pulpit to speak out for our shared values.”
“Now ask yourself, ‘Do you really want to go through the next four years with a president who if your child came home and simply uttered the words coming out of that president’s mouth would make you punish your child, would make you embarrassed for your child. We need a president who unifies us, who speaks to our better angels, who speaks to our shared values,” Cruz argued.
