Ted Cruz responded to the White House's announcement Friday that a seat in the first lady's guest box for Tuesday's State of the Union address will be left empty to honor victims of gun violence with a promise of his own.
"If I'm elected POTUS, there'll be an empty seat for the over 50 million unborn children killed since Roe #Stand4Life," the Texas senator and Republican presidential candidate tweeted Friday afternoon after the White House's account tweeted the news.

Obama's announced executive action on guns from earlier this week drew strong criticism from Republicans, including Cruz, who features a fundraising appeal on his campaign website that says the president "wants your guns."
Traditionally, the White House's invited guests have signaled potential areas of emphasis for the president's address. Among the invitees last year, for example, were students, medical professionals, a child of undocumented immigrants, a police officer and an Army veteran.

What a jerk. Typical Nazi and commie theater for the DemocRATS’ gullible and uneducated voter base. The liberals love to whine that Republican voters don’t have college diplomas. At the same time, 85% of the RAT voter base don’t have a middle school diploma.
The Whitehouse got the idea from Clint Eastwood.
Leave a seat open for all the babys killed in abortion mills on Obama’s watch. Leave one open for Ambassador Stevens too while they’re at it.
Just use the seat Ruth Bader Ginsberg sleeps in during the SOTU speeches.
I just refer to it as Chris Stevens’s seat.

= no one wants to sit with Michelle
Cruz said Obama has a pen but Cruz has an eraser.
I don’t want Cruz to erase the whole trust thing, but I’m sure he’s aware of that.
Republican response should be an angry tranny ranting that he could have used the seat.
If you want to bring attention to mass murderers, put a lifesize cardboard cutout of Joseph Stalin in the seat. You can even include the caption:
“His country had the strictest gun control laws in the world.”
Heidi Cruz should just go sit in the seat.
You think we could get Ted Nugent to walk in and sit in it?
CC
Is Obama bringing his pen to the SOTU speech?
One more year of this cr**.
How about a few empty seats for the hundred million killed by the Democrat friends the communists in Russia, China, Vietnam, North Korea, Cuba and elsewhere?
How about a few more empty seats for the 6 million Jews exterminated by the Democrat friends the National Socialists in Germany? They were disarmed by the National Socialists and had their weapons confiscated, just like Obamao and the Dems want to do here.
How many drugs did you need to abuse for that?
“I just refer to it as Chris Stevensâs seat”.
That was my first thought. Impose that text over the image of the screen, with “unavailable”.
How many English classes did you fail to write that sentence?
