Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) slammed President Joe Biden this week after Biden called tens of millions of Americans “garbage,” saying that Biden’s remark was indicative of what many top elected Democrats believe.
Cruz made the remarks during his “Verdict” podcast with co-host Ben Ferguson while talking about Biden’s comment during a campaign call on Tuesday evening.
“It really is a viciousness, and I want you to hear that quote again,” Cruz said. “‘The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,’ and that’s clearly what he says.”
Cruz noted that the White House was “desperately trying” to erase the words out of Biden’s mouth by claiming that he didn’t really say that and that he was talking about an insult comedian who performed at a Trump rally over the weekend.
“This is deplorables all over again,” Cruz said of an inflammatory insult that Hillary Clinton made against Republicans in 2016.
“You remember Barack Obama saying that Americans are bitter and angry and clinging to their God and their guns,” Cruz continued. “I mean, this is what they think. It’s what Obama thinks, it’s what Hillary thinks, it’s what Joe Biden thinks. It’s definitely what Kamala thinks.”

He said that Democrats view voters as “deplorable” if they have a problem with higher prices and rising crime rates throughout the country.
Cruz said the Democrats’ strategy was to call Trump “Hitler” during the final weeks of the election, but they did not anticipate the sitting president calling tens of millions of Americans “garbage.”
“I don’t think this was planned,” he said. “It’s one thing to try to demonize Donald Trump. It’s another thing and a much stupider thing, to try to demonize America, to try to demonize half the voters in America. Now, they believe it. They believe that we’re garbage. They believe we’re deplorables. But they try to suppress that instinct, because they recognize that some of their voters, some of the voters they’re trying to presumably earn their votes. And you know, it’s typically a bad strategy in campaigning to say, ‘hey, you piece of garbage, vote for me.’”
Joe Biden called half of Americans “garbage.” This is Hillary Clinton’s “basket of deplorables” all over again.
This is what Democrats think. They look down on Americans.
The arrogance is staggering.https://t.co/YYUSnnQU74 pic.twitter.com/smM1pP5ppF
