Everyone piles on after Ted Cruz goes completely off the rails

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Senator Ted Cruz isn’t just out of touch with mainstream America. He’s also out of touch with facts, the truth, science, knowledge, things that are real, and for that matter the human race. Cruz is once again reminding us of this, in particularly idiotic and dangerous fashion.

As part of his ongoing far-right extremist argument that women shouldn’t have any control over their own bodies, Ted Cruz tweeted that “Pregnancy is not a life-threatening illness.” Numerous people on Twitter were quick to point that pregnancy is indeed often a dangerous, and sometimes a life-threatening, medical situation. So many people pushed back against Ted Cruz, his name ended up trending on Twitter.

What stands out here isn’t just merely Ted Cruz’s proud ignorance and willingness to lie, in the hope of getting his way on the issue. It’s that a guy has to be completely warped in the head to be this obsessed with controlling women’s bodies. People like Ted Cruz and Mike Pence aren’t Christians; they’re merely perverts – and they’re trying to use the government to carry out their perversions.
