You can scratch Ted Cruz's name off the list of viable candidates for 2024. Even most Republicans will turn their noses up at a man who drove his daughter to a suicide attempt.

Ya'll are making some WILD fucking speculation here. Like, I don't carry water for Ted fucking Cruz but jfc, unless I'm missing something there is zero information here other than his daughter cut herself. I get that you guys hate him, but to say he drove his daughter to attempt suicide is some pretty baseless and horrible shit you are all saying.

This.

I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if he really was one of the driving factors for her to do this. But these are wild guesses and shouldn't be spoken out loud without any knowledge of the situation.

I fucking hate the GOP and Cruz is a terrible human being from what I can tell.
But it's important that we, morally upright and sensitive people, shouldn't jump to conclusions or use this tragic event to blame him (especially without any knowledge of the situation).

I just feel bad for her and hope she gets better soon. I hope, whatever the reasons were, they can be solved.

I don't want to be the kind of vulture who would use a teenage girl's misfortune as an opportunity to take a political dig and someone I dislike.

But I am more than comfortable with making the assumption that Ted Cruz himself is a contributing factor to this suicide attempt.

You do know she identifies as bisexual and her last name is cruz, right? What are the 2 things her daddy always spews hatred about? Ah yes, LGBTQ and brown people.

I didn't even blame anyone in my OP, but there was water to carry here for Teddy and you guys had to comply. You do you.

Doubtful. A lot of them would gladly disown their kids if they turned out to be LGBT.

My grandmother missed her only son's funeral because she didn't want to go through the rigmarole of cancelling an elective surgery she'd had scheduled.

I have no difficulty believing that there are plenty of other people like that in the world, and that Cancun Cruz is one of them.

We have the floor notes. He was, in fact, not one of them.

Yeah, her short-term future is unlikely to be pleasant.

I hope she survives long enough to be free and love whoever she likes.

They're not all dyed-in-the-wool fascists.

It's not like the least retched among them would look at a daughter committing suicide and think, "She deserved it. She was weak." The majority of Republicans are ignorant people unaware of their own ignorance. Ted Cruz will be toxic after this. He was never the most popular to begin with, so it'll be easy enough for them to scratch his name off the list -- and rally around Trump or DeSantis. (Hey, I never said they'd turn Democrat.)

Cruz has publicly bullied his daughter and proceeded to get re-elected. There is no reason to believe that anyone that votes for Cruz and watches the news would change their mind here.

Her being a lesbian, something I didn't know until this topic, makes a different in the amount of sympathy she'll receive from conservatives. They're not altogether known for being sympathetic to LGBTQ individuals. You might even get some disgusting "sympathy" from people thinking that she was corrupted and that this wouldn't have happened if she'd chosen a normal life.

Even so, driving a daughter to a suicide attempt is bad PR.

It's quite disturbing how this is more often being used as an excuse for inherently hateful, nasty people to aim their hate at Ted Cruz or a group rather than provide sympathy to the girl who attempted suicide.

CE's such a damn joke.

We'll see. The popularity polls will be out there soon enough.

If he increases in popularity because of this, the US is in trouble.

Over the years we have seen her run away from his touch.

Frankly I expect his polls to be down but his votes to stay the same. The latter of which is the thing that actually matters. There is a non-trivial amount of people that will die before voting against the party line, they just don't necessarily espouse liking it. It's why there are so many quotes of people directly calling the Republicans villains yet that they would still vote for them.

His daughter came our as bisexual a year ago.

And Cruz is one of the most outspoken voices in the country for un-personing the lgbtq+ community. Labeling them groomers, child predators, and mentally diseased. And he's already publicly thrown her under the bus before, blaming his mishandling of the Cancun Blizzard Escape debacle on her.

To say that his presence in her life is not a contributing factor is, frankly, asinine. Even if it turns out he's privately great to her, he dedicates a huge part of his loudest, daily, public, working life to brutally attacking people like her, and very actively working to make nearly every aspect of her life quantifiably worse.

Can we stop given the benefit of the doubt to these horrible people. We know that she is member of the LGTB community. And Cruz spends his platform attacking said community. How is that going to help her mental state ?

Most of the people 'calling out' CE for prioritizing their disdain for Ted over the welfare of his daughter are not doing so in good faith.
