The very first day that President [Barack] Obama was inaugurated, his first act as a president was to rescind that ban on third-trimester abortions. And he's even carried it further. Now, even if the baby is born alive, they have the right to kill that baby. It is an abomination.

Do you know the rate of military enlistment among Hispanics is higher than any demographic in this country?
Ted Cruz
Image
We deserve leaders who stand for principal, who unite us all behind shared values, who cast aside anger for love. That is the standard we should expect from everybody.
Ted Cruz
Image
Let's go back to the beginning of the Obama administration, when Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama led NATO in toppling the government in Libya. They did it because they wanted to promote democracy. A number of Republicans supported them. Well, the result is, Libya is now a terrorist war zone run by jihadists.

Far too many young people are living in their parents' basements, and I think it is important for people to have hope and a vision things can be different.
Ted Cruz
Image
While there may have been an age difference, Josh Duggar's transgressions are far less an affront to God than what gays do with each other.
Ted Cruz
Image
It is profoundly troubling when you have Supreme Court justices not following their judicial oath. And taking the role of policy makers and legislators, rather than being judges.
Ted Cruz
Image
A lot of my colleagues actually yell and curse at each other. I don't do that.

On domestic policy, Donald Trump agreed with Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on the Wall Street bailout, the TARP bailout of big bank. I think the government ought to be standing with mainstream, with working men and women. And then you put on top of that the ethical issues, whether it is refusing to release his taxes. And that's a real problem.
