Republican Presidential Candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) appeared on Thursday's "Hannity" on the FOX News Channel where he accused President Barack Obama, Democratic Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton, and Secretary of State John Kerry of being "apologists for radical Islamic terrorism."
He started off by addressing the comments Obama made earlier this week while in Turkey and Manila, according to FOX News Insider.
"It really is remarkable that twice this week President Obama has attacked me directly," Cruz said. "Obama, instead of defending this nation, just attacks you and me and every American who wants to keep this nation safe."
He went on say argue that Obama is driven by radical ideology and political correctness, rather than a will to protect our country, according to FOX Nation. Cruz also said he is leading the charge in the senate to combat Obama's and Hillary's plan to bring in Syrian refugees without safety assurance.
"The modern Democratic Party has a blindness to radical Islamic terrorism, and they've endangered the safety and security of this country," he said.
He went on to remark about Kerry's comments on there being a "rationale" behind the Charlie Hebdo attacks, calling it "shameful" and calling for his resignation, according to Breitbart. "Look, John Kerry's statement is shameful. He should resign. I've called on John Kerry to resign, multiple times," Cruz said.
However he didn't stop there. He later went on to call Kerry, Obama and Hillary apologists for radical Islamic terrorists.
"Both John Kerry, and Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama, have all served as apologists for radical Islamic terrorists. Now, what does an apologist mean? An apologist is someone who gives rationalization, someone who gives justifications, that's what John Kerry was doing right there," he said.
Cruz concluded by promising that if he were to be elected president, he would secure the nation's borders and put an end to radical Islamic terrorism.
