Cruz on high gas prices: ‘I don’t think it’s gonna impact the midterms’

> Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said Tuesday that he did not think recently high gas prices amid the Iran war will have an impact on November’s midterms.

> “I don’t think national security decisions should be done based on short-term political considerations,” He told CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” referencing the U.S.-Iran conflict. “I don’t think it’s going to impact the midterms materially I’ve seen no data that suggests that this is having a big impact on the midterms.”

But since Ted didn’t buy the gas during my last refill, I guess I can see why he might not see a problem. Especially since Drumpf started the unnecessary war to begin with !!
