Wilson told the Texas politics-focused podcast “Y’all-itics” that the group would target Cruz for his support for a Republican challenge to President Biden’s certification of victory earlier this month.

“We all know Ted Cruz is sort of a political force of nature. He is what he is. Either you hate him or you hate him, ”Wilson said. “And this is a guy who went so far over the edge, not only to appease the base of Donald Trump and Trump, but because he felt like [Sen.] Josh hawleyJoshua (Josh) David HawleySenate Confirms Biden’s Chief Intelligence Officer, Giving Biden’s First Official Cabinet Inauguration Marked by Conflict of Hope and Fear The Hill’s Morning Report – President Biden, Vice President Harris begin to work today PLUS (R-Mo.) Had gone ahead. “

Hawley, who like Cruz is seen as a possible 2024 GOP candidate, was the first to announce that he would challenge the election results. A number of Republicans signed on to the challenge, but some dropped their objections after a host of pro-Trump rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol.
Cruz and Hawley continued their challenge.

Wilson called the effort “openly seditious” and suggested the group would target other participants in the effort as well, saying that “as much as everyone cordially hates Ted Cruz, that also relates to the fact that he There is a caucus of these guys right now. . “

“These guys realized this was a very, very bad legal, political, moral, constitutional decision and that’s why they’re in a position right now where they’re not fighting their chests and saying, ‘I’m the alpha male of the heir to MAGA’s fortunes, ”he added.

Wilson went on to predict that the intra-party dispute over Trump’s continued role in the Republican Party would lead to the emergence of a third party, adding, “I think traditional Republican, economic, social and fiscal conservatism is fundamentally dead.

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this week that the former president spoke to associates about the possibility of forming a right-wing populist third party.
