Ted Cruz may be a long-time leader of the battle cry to repeal Obamacare, but what the senator said he’d first do if elected president is of a more personal nature.
At a local radio station’s town hall event in New Hampshire on May 30, Cruz sat down with radio host Jeff Kuhner and about 600 other attendees to address his stance on a myriad of topics.
Kuhner asked, “Would President Cruz give a path to legalization or amnesty for illegal immigrants?”
But Cruz thinks his first act might be a bit lighter.
“Let me start by saying if I’m elected, January 2017, I suppose the first thing I should do is send flowers and a note of condolences to all of the reporters and editors who’ve check themselves into therapy,” he joked.
After his kind gesture to reporters and editors, Cruz followed up his presidential promises with a nod to his Cuban heritage, saying the second thing he’d do would be to plan a pig roast on the White House lawn.
One question, Sen. Cruz — Can we be invited?
