NEW YORK (WBAP/KLIF News) – Ted Cruz was among several politicians who took to social media to react to the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton on Monday night.
“Tonight, Donald Trump had his strongest debate performance of the election cycle,” Cruz wrote. “He drew strong contrasts with Hillary on taxes, regulations, law and order, and the disastrous Iran deal.”
The praise comes just days after Cruz announced his endorsement of Trump.
“Tonight we received insight into what a Hillary Clinton presidency would look like for Americans. We know that her policies would kill jobs, reduce wages, and continue the downward spiral our country has endured under President Obama,” Cruz said in the post on Facebook.
Cruz ended his congratulatory message by encouraging voters to take a “different path.” “A path that would begin to restore our country from the damage it has suffered the last eight years. We need to unite to defend freedom and restore the Constitution. And Hillary Clinton made absolutely clear tonight she would not do so,” Cruz wrote.
Rather than Hillary's America, we need to take a different path https://t.co/p62XTRygEg #Debates2016
