Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) slammed Democrats for their opposition to President Trump’s proposed border wall, saying they’ve gone “bat-crap crazy.”

Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference Friday, Cruz told a rapt crowd that Democrats opposed one of Republicans’ signature immigration platform simply to undermine the White House.

“I think there’s a technical description of what’s going on, it’s that Democrats have gone bat-crap crazy,” he said.

“Now, their position is don’t secure the border at all, let everybody in and have amnesty,” he added. “Here’s their reasoning. Trump wants a wall, we hate Trump, therefore no wall, that’s it.”

[Achilleaze]

5. Indeed. These are dangerous and obvious lies

If the media lets this republican bullshit stand unchallenged, they are complicit in the lie.

I don't get why this group of card carrying idiots gets so much press

3. Capital P R O J E C T I O N ... nt

4. I guess introspection is lost on Republicans

[lagomorph777]

6. Hey Ted Lose: Your fellow Texans hate the wall because it's a pretext to steal their land.

How is the wall a conservative thing?

[The Liberal Lion]

7. Wrong Cruz! We don't oppose the wall JUST to undermine trump's ilegal White House occupation

We oppose it because it's wrong, it's racist, it's stupid, and FINALLY yes to undermine trump and your nazi scum of a party.

8. From the mouth of the "bat-crap" crazy Cruz

His position is prone for satan

[littlemissmartypants]

17. You're reading my mind. nt

9. How can he tell?

The GOP has crawled so far out on the rightward fringe that they've forgotten what "normal" looks like. Given their current extremist views, no one should be surprised that Republicans find any step to the left of center right is beyond their comprehension.

[duforsure]

10. That's amusing

In 2015 when President Obama requested more funding for border security Ted Cruz did nothing to get more money for it, and all republicans refused to do anything to get him more money for it, and Mitch refused it too. Now they want to whine about funding when they didn't spend the money they were given from last year either.

19. The irony of that was

that after being called out and shamed, they did finally spend $20 million of those unspent funds - but only on photo-op prototypes that they just started tearing down this past week, where none of those prototype designs will end up being used.

11. At least we aren't "give voter data to the Russians and let them hack my iphone" crazy, Ted.

[PeeJ52]

12. The media should not publicize this. Cruz is only speaking to his own crazies at CPAC...

This is the only audience that is intended to believe this garbage, just as capitalism built the internet. If CPAC wants to lie to themselves, let them. The media should report it as such that the CPAC leaders are feeding each other their own shit and loving it...

[Marcuse]

13. So your dad really did kill JFK and your wife is ugly?

We never did believe Pecker about you and all those women.

14. +1

[JCMach1]

15. Proceed Senator

[BumRushDaShow]

16. Ahhh CPAC

Usually the media gobbles up the dung that conference produces. I guess I should be glad that other news items sortof muted the fawning of the media over that event... but they'll probably try to elevate it back into the news somehow anyway.
