Ted Cruz twice refuses opportunity to call for Mitch McConnell to step down as majority leader

“We just saw John Boehner announce that he will be stepping down as Speaker in October. Do you think it’s time for Mitch McConnell to leave his role as leader of the Senate Republicans?” he was asked.

“Well, that’s a question for Mitch to decide, and for the Republican conference to decide,” Cruz answered. “What I think is important is that we have Republican leadership in both houses that actually honors the commitments we made to the voters, that treats seriously the promises.”…

“Just real quick, you have no position on McConnell stepping down? You don’t have a position on that?” he was asked.

“That is for him,” Cruz responded. “What I do have a position on is I encourage your listeners to go to www.tedcruz.org. September 30th, today, is the end of our quarter, so please sign up, contribute, September 30th, www.tedcruz.org.”
