Cruz: Biden’s spending plan is ‘cruel’ to Americans, ‘it will drive inflation further’

This week on Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) reacted when President Joe Biden signed the $ 1.2 trillion infrastructure bill as Democrats negotiate a social spending package. even greater.

Cruz described the overspending as “cruel” to the American public because it would not affect the Democratic elites who support the bill. He argued that it would only “drive inflation further.”

“Look, they want you to not be able to fill the gas tank in your car. They want their electricity bill to be higher. They want their heating bill to be higher and cruelty, of course, does not affect them. Democratic elites will continue to fly their private jets wherever they go, and workers simply say let them eat cake. And it’s really cruel what’s happening after spending $ 1.9 trillion on a COVID relief bill, which was not COVID relief, and now spending 1.2 trillion on an infrastructure bill, much of it. of which it is not infrastructure. Now they want to move on to Bernie Sanders’ socialist budget. This was the budget that was original $ 3.5 billion, and it was actually closer to $ 5.5 if you honestly rate it. ”

“All Republicans oppose this waste because the American people are paying for it and, unfortunately, we will have to see if they can get 50 Democrats to agree to do much more damage and further increase inflation.”
