Bennet Takedown of Cruz Goes Viral


January 26, 2019 at 8:03 am EST By Taegan Goddard

Colorado Politics: “The impassioned speech delivered on the Senate floor Thursday by U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet about the federal government shutdown quickly blew up online, accumulating millions of views and spawning calls for the usually unflappable Colorado Democrat to run for president.”

“Within 24 hours, clips of the broadside had been viewed online more than 11 million times, officials at C-SPAN told Colorado Politics, making it the most-watched congressional video in the network’s history.”

Thus, his darkside KGOP idiocy could not be permitted to stand. Bennet took a stand for all the honest, decent people in the country. Good.
