A Very Positive Sign From Senator Ted Cruz

    

One of the very positive things I saw come out of President Trump's speech to the Joint Houses of Congress was an interview with Senator Ted Cruz.

As I listened to all of the huge items on President Trump's list. I thought sounds great. I also thought he had about as much chance of getting it all passed as Miami, Florida has of seeing a 24" snowfall in July.

The day after his speech to the Joint Session of Congress, I watched an interview with Senator Cruz that left me hopeful. He didn't say no to President Trump's agenda. He was even asked about what it could do to the budget. His response, surprisingly was of course we will have debate over that, but we know we can't cut our way out of debt. We know we have to grow our economy to get out of debt.

I supported Ted Cruz in the Republican Primary. In large part because he is a fiscal conservative. That being said, I did find it very refreshing to hear him say we can't just cut our way out of debt, we have to do things to grow the economy. Perhaps there is hope after all.

Despicable Democrats

    

I had to wait a while before writing this article. I was so disgusted and angry at the actions of some of our Democratic "Leaders" last night and this morning.

Ryan Owens, the Navy Seal who was killed in the raid in Yemen was honored by President Trump last night. Whether you like President Trump or not. Whether you think the mission was a success or a failure. If you are an elected official at the speech, the very least you should do is stand in to honor this hero. At least you should stand to honor his wife. While this Lady's heart was breaking;

     

These despicable Democrats were sitting;

   

These disgraceful democrats didn’t even stand when President Trump gave his first speech to Congress and swore to protect law enforcement and make their jobs safer and easier.

    

They groaned loudly when President Trump announced the new VOICE program. They hissed. They gave the thumbs down. How can you be an elected official and boo, groan, and hiss because of a program designed to help victims of crime?

They were like petulant children.

Some of the  things said on Twitter please excuse the language.

    

One of the worst Tweets was by Dan Grilo, a former volunteer for Hillary Clinton, and President Obama.

President Trump offered an olive branch to the Democrats last night. They repaid him with boos, hisses, thumbs down, then in an unprecedented show of contempt they walked out while he was still in the Auditorium. An action never seen in modern history.

Despicable.
