Cruz and Sen. Josh Hawley “will pay a very heavy price,” one GOP senator said.

Following his leading role in an effort to overturn the results of the presidential election that contributed to a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week, a large majority of Americans do not trust Sen. Ted Cruz , to protect democracy, a newSen. Ted Cruz stands in the House Chamber during a reconvening of a joint session of CongressOf the 570 adults interviewed, 71% said they trust Cruz “not so much” or “not at all,” while 10% said they trust him “a great deal.

Cruz was one of the leaders of an effort by a small group of Republican lawmakers to delay Congress’s certification of the Electoral College’s confirmation of President-elect Joe Biden’s win in the November election. A violent mob of Trump supporters entered the U.S. Capitol Building last Wednesday as Congress was in the process of certifying the results, forcing the evacuation of both the House and Senate chambers.

He does not have any credibility. Do yourself a favor Ted. Disappear from political life

I find it ironic that Forbes is now a democratically controlled media source. That 'survey' is a joke

Shows what a good education will get ya.

And who did the polling?

And he was born in ... CANADA!

Which sample space did you guys use to get this stat? Enough if this biased polling.

I don't know what they do with people like him, but the big boot in his ass is probably not enough considering the bullshit he was spewing leading up to the violence,,.

71% ? What part of your body did you pull that number from?

SenTedCruz LOCK HIM UP! LockHimUpNow

Bull shit

SenTedCruz it's over for him - forever.

They will pay a heavy price. Not soon enough.

570 people polled. Forbes: THIS REPRESENTS ALL OF AMERICA !!!

tedcruz Rafael. This should concern you. You sold out your wife’s honor and your constituency. Can’t wait to see you fall in ‘22.

They never understood what he was trying to do.

They pull 570 people out of god knows where, they asked him 'do you trust this guy' the 71% of the people either didn't know hım, didn't care about the politics or they were simply democracts, and now this 'poll' should suppose to give you an insight about the man

gene_clean ha ha ha

Great oratory /memorable delivery in defence of fair free elections at the senate . Memorable. All that was asked for was an audit , nothing more .

Stay strong Ted

I don’t know who you poled, but that is not what 75m people in the US believes

tedcruz should resign HawleyMO should resign senatemajldr should encourage impeachment

I call BS on this so called poll, I was never asked, how about stop polling a small crowd!

“Hire any of Trump’s fellow fabulists above, and Forbes will assume that everything your company or firm talks about is a lie.” ~ Forbes Chief Content Officer So, Forbes is also jumping into the oppression game?

He should be ejected from the Senate.

A targeted PR campaign against an innocent man who spoke out about a criminal and treasonous election that took place in the United States of America. When are the TheDemocrats Democrats going to go to prison for this?

Lies! Fake news.

Lies, does the media ever get sick of telling lies? I’m to the point that if they say a tornado is coming I’m going to look out my window and see. More Americans trust Ted Cruz now. He’s actually standing FOR Americans. He’s making sure our election was legit.

then 29% of americans are fools

Better chance with him, than Biden.

We trust him!! This 71% who do not trust him came from the obvious LEFT

Fake news.

Ted Cruz President 2024!

He doesn’t believe in what he’s doing... he’s just scared to death of Trump!!!

GOD Bless SenTedCruz 🙏

Traitor

A snake in a blue suit

71% of people world wide were repulsed by his failure to stand up to Trump when he insulted his wife and accused his father of being part of the assassination of JFK

29%delusional Down from a recent 48%

All that matters is what texas thinks about him.

Of course TedCruz and marcorubio shameful to call them Boricuas moved to Cuba with Trump

Kind of shocking that a full 29% DO trust this buffoon.

Ted Cruz is a traitor, to his fellow Americans, his constituents, his family, and his colleagues. Lust for power consumes you like a snake, the snake that Ted opened the door for.

sleazy opportunist He saw an opening for 2024 to get Trump supporters so he launched fake objection

No honest and moral American, Republican or otherwise can in good conscience allow such unpatriotic action as that committed by POTUS and his hoard to go unpunished 🇺🇸‼️ GOP WhiteHouse FoxNews senatemajldr SenTedCruz RudyGiulianli Mike_Pence ReaganRepubsID MAGA

That's false.

Watchdogsniffer

Lock him up!

NeedsToGo

A reckoning

The guy acts as if their is no history of what he has said ...

The 570 sample size is so small that I highly doubt that it is representative of the population. However, I too don’t trust Cruz would protect our constitution let alone democracy

I love my Texas senator

Is this the same poll that had JoeBiden winning by 18%?

Lock him up!

👌🏼

Do we just make up numbers? Ahhh 71% 😂 come on Forbes tedcruz

McConnell, Pelosi, and both pf their gangs are much worse...

I’m surprised it’s only 71%, did you count Mail in votes?

tedcruz & HawleyMO should be expelled from Congress. SpeakerPelosi

YES THAT IS CORRECT IN NOT TRUSTING HIM AND OTHERS FOR OUR DEMOCRACY

Texans should recall him.

Duh!

Well it’s seems that conspiracy to kill US officials runs in his family

I would like to see those stats put into action Cruz and Hawley should be banished

Republicans took the same oath every congress member took and that’s to follow the laws and constitution. The fact Trump violated the law and incited the unconstitutional action of Insurrection should prompt republicans to follow their oath of office and impeach Trump

what’s wrong with the other 29%

Ted Cruz Faces Backlash for Cancún Trip as Texas FreezesMeanwhile, millions of Texans are without electricity amid frigid conditions. In an ideal world, they would be tried for crimes against humanity, genocide and ecocide. I hope this Texas emergency will wake enough to remove the murderous, capitalist, imperial, theocratic psychopaths from power. It’s time to treat Abbott, Paxton, & the oil & gas industry as the murderers they are. They should at the very least be charged with negligent homicide.
