Sen. Ted Cruz says the Supreme Court was “clearly wrong” and “overreaching” when it legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.

was “clearly wrong” and “overreaching” when it legalized same-sex marriage nationwide in the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges ruling in 2015.in another presidential run, came just weeks after the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v.

“The way the Constitution set up for you to advance that position is convince your fellow citizens that if you succeeded in convincing your fellow citizens, then your state would change the laws to reflect those views. In Obergefell, the court said now we know better than you guys do, and now every state must, must sanction and permit gay marriage,” Cruz continued.

Teddy, you don't like same sex marriage? Don't get one then. I'm beginning to think you've been in the closet so long you've forgotten a lot of things.

This guy is to good at being a weasel. I think they screwed up on his background investigation. No one can naturally be that fucked up.

HE'S A PUTZ

Ted Cruz: Two consenting adults marrying, not okay. Underaged child brides, okay. Rapist rights over victim rights, also okay.

Did he say it from Cancun?

What a horrible mentality.. so narrow.

Cannot wait to Vote his ass out!!!

Ted Cruz says the country was 'clearly wrong' when it ratified the 13th Amendment ending slavery ...

Here we go... How about werewolves? Is it legal to marry one of them?

Texas was wrong for electing you!

Let's ban it!!! America has become incredibly worse as a nation ever since it was allowed!!!

Teddy next time you get a chance to fuck off…take it

Republicans are fixated on what goes on in other people's bedrooms.

What if one of his kid or a member of close family is gay, what will he do? Will he disown them?

Who put them there? Who worked tirelessly in Congress to confirm 3 conservative Judges? And now he says they are clearly wrong. Kruz is correct in describing Overreach which is a hallmark of all recent Judicial changes including Roe.

Ted Cruz is the best example of the worst of the Republicans and that's not saying much about any of the Republicans now is it

Ted is such a chode

Maybe Ted should learn who his constituency is and have a conversation with them.

If you don’t like same sex marriage Ted, don’t marry a man! Just leave it be! Live and let live!

You need to watch the TV movie 'Prayers for Bobby' staring Sigourney Weaver! Clearly, you're a politician that does not have compassion or respect for people that have no control in how they're Brian are developed! It appears that you don't have common sense!

WOW Raphael, I didn't realize that you should have been involved in that landmark 'Obergefell v. Hodges' ruling back in 2015.

jenasturgis Ted Cruz’s mother was clearly wrong when she had him.

animal

People regardless of sex should be able to be married, it is a religious event, not for the Gov and the SC to decide! However the tax benefits of being married are antiquated. People living together as a family unit deserve the same tax breaks under the law.

The king of phony speaks.

Welcome to America, land of the free, home of the brave!

Are you kidding

Anyone who is so vocal about this being wrong must still be in the closet.

. Nothing gets Republicans excited like taking away freedoms from women and minorities. .

Ted hates it when they do that

Hate to bust your bubble dude but the courts majority is GOP who you helped pushed to begin with.

PASS IT ON ! VOTE NOVEMBER 2022! 😝NOT ONE SINGLE VOTE should be CAST for ANY 'TRUMP REPUBLICAN' CANDIDATE! **NOT EVEN LIZ CHENEY👎 NONE are WORTHY of ELECTION or RE-ELECTION! ABSOLUTELY NONE! 🥳VOTE for DEMOCRATS!🥳

There are a lot of cute and witty comments in this thread. However, to be cute and witty about someone as transparently selfish, broken, and self serving as Cruz is a mistake. This man will morph into any role or position to get attention, and that is dangerous. Vote him out.

not sure why i should care what eddie munster thinks

Cruz is saying tha Constitution has no backing for this ruling like abortion. So the States decide. A legal opinion. Not stance.

GAY GAY GAY

He is hitting the bottle again!🤪

Cruz keeps trying for relevancy & ends up repeatedly showing his own bigotry & narcissism. The GOP was, once, the party that kept the gov’t out of the bedroom.

He is never gonna be happy until he can control every living person that doesn't support is Pro Civil War mentality. Women home slaves having 25 kids, The Men drinking and shooting up the place and impregnating their wives. Yeah hoo

You have in America one simple remedy for this injustice how you vote in the midterms and 2024 remember when the GOP play this type of game you Dem’s can also play a game that is called packing the courts so it’s up to you how you vote

He is 100% correct

tedcruz aka Lyin'Ted would do anything to get couple votes which includes swallowing insults to his wife from the previous guy to look good to his base.

All of you with same sex marriages in his TexASS district, if SCOTUS doesn't overturn it,the TexASS AG will

Idiot!

tedcruz is wrong yet again and rarely correct. However SCOTUS was wrong on several other decisions... The US Supreme Court in District of Columbia v. Heller decision. Scalia ignored governing grammatical construction in order to fit his opinion on 2nd Amendment. get busy Ted!

The man is a skank. Someone please defeat him and get him out of government! He should be selling replacement parts for Pep Boys. (My apologies to all employees of Pep Boys).

I would have to disagree with Sen. Cruz on this. A marriage is nothing more than a contractual agreement between two people. It doesn't matter what sex they are. As far as the law is concerned it is merely a melding of two people. Under equal protections, we can't discriminate.

How many years has it taken you to express your opinion? Where was the outrage back then. Was there even one. I paid no attention as it’s a person’s right to marry whomever or what ever. People bequeath estates to animals and birds.

🖕🏾 off ted!

The state of Texas was clearly wrong when they elected Ted Cruz.

Wtf does someone's PERSONAL LOVE WHO THEY LOVE AND HOW TBEY LOVE AS ADULTS HAVE TO DO WITH POLITICS!?

Here we go

Not allowed those are our words just misinterpreted

Why give this guy opportunity to braying!!!

What two consenting adults do is none of my business or anyone else’s business.

The right wing Christo-fascists have clearly stated what they want to do... please believe them.

SenTedCruz Texas Calling to see if the Grid is Fixed❓🤔

Roe is just the beginning, it’s going to be a long fight for our rights.

TedCruz

Same sex marriage is a human right. There’s nothing wrong with it.

SenTedCruz tedcruz - what’s Terd Cruz’s stance on interracial marriage?

F*CK CANCUN CRUZ.

SenTedCruz tedcruz -funny he would say that being one of the biggest closet cases out there as one of the biggest drama queens in DC, Tx & the Bahamas …

Of course

He likes sucking dick outside his marriage

Keep digging GOP, try to ban gay marriage. GOP’s extremism is finally repulsing the public. Trying to make a 10 year old rape victim carry rapists child, is bridge too far, even for the most heartless. And denying climate change is real, while we all bake, is waking folks up.

tedcruz is about fifty years late with his opinion. Meanwhile women have been making biological choices; the Republican woke. RoeVWade

Ted Cruz says legalizing gay marriage was ‘clearly wrong’ decision by Supreme Court'I think the decision was clearly wrong when it was decided. It was the court overreaching,' said Ted Cruz about the 2015 case that legalized gay marriage in the United States. Nobody is forcing him to marry a guy. He’s just jealous because 2 people of the same sex can love each other more than his wife loves him. SenTedCruz Cruz is one of the main supporters in suppressing women's free choice, LGBT equal rights, and the democratic Republic. VOTE OUT CRUZ! God says that marriage is made up of one man and one woman. Nothing else qualifies as marriage.

How the Supreme Court recalibrated the abortion debate in just 3 wordsIt's not just that US Supreme Court majorities upheld Mississippi's 15-week abortion ban and overturned Roe v. Wade. The opinion also skewed the crux of the conversation going forward -- with just three words. 1 issue for me , going forward RIP : the idea of requiring journalists to be ‘proficient’ in: The existence/employment of a friggin predicate, conceptual understanding of complex sentence construction, or ever wandering outside of Plato’s cave.
