On Sunday, Senator Ted Cruz addressed a crowd in New Hampshire about the current administration, the economy, national security and the Affordable Care Act.
Half way through his speech a small business owner in the audience was called on to ask a question but he used the moment as a platform to show his support for the Senator. He said:It is D-Day in America folks. We can’t wait for another Republican. We need Ted Cruz!
Then he proceeding by having his wife write out a blank check for Cruz and throwing his wallet by Cruz’s feet.
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
Senator Cruz responded to the gesture by saying:
There was also another moment during Cruz’s speech which got much attention. He was giving his usual comments about how the Obama administration is horrific on foreign policy by saying:For those who believe in miracles, this gentleman just threw his wallet at a politician and he actually got it back.
And the Obama-Clinton foreign policy of leading from behind – the whole world is on fire.
He was stopped by a 3-year old girl in the front row who yelled out:
The world is on fire?
Cruz stopped and responded:
The world is on fire – yes! Your world is on fire. But you know what? You mommy’s here and everyone’s here to make sure that the world you grow up in is even better.
The crowd burst into laughter and found the exchange to be cute.
When it came to the question if the Senator is running for president, he said he is still considering it. He commented:
I’m looking at it very, very seriously. I would point out a week ago I was in Iowa, yesterday I was in South Carolina, and today I’m in New Hampshire.
That can be taken as a subtle hint or just an observation, but either way the crowd in New Hampshire was trying to encourage him to run. Right before Cruz was expected to speak organizers of the event had to move the event to a bigger room to accommodate the large crowd.
Even Cruz’s daughter weighed in and supported her dad if he decides to run. The Senator said he and his wife recently got his daughters a puppy and his daughter said:If you win, that means Snowflake will finally get a backyard to pee in.
