Get ready for two years of “all-out partisan war.”
CRUZ: “I think Schumer and the Democrats will just halt all judges, which means if we have a Supreme Court vacancy, I think they’ll keep the vacancy open for two years.”
“I don’t think they care because their base is that radicalized.”
“I think we will also see two years of relentless impeachment. I believe the House will impeach Donald Trump if they have the House. They may impeach him multiple times.”
“We will see subpoenas. We will see investigations. I think they will go after President Trump. I think they will go after his family. I think they will go after cabinet members.”
“I expect in the lame duck we will see an impeachment of Pete Hegseth.”
