Mediaite: Ted Cruz: Midterms Were ‘Referendum on Amnesty,’ Obama Just Ignoring

Senator Ted Cruz joined Megyn Kelly tonight to rail against President Obama‘s planned action on immigration. And Cruz argued Obama's acting particularly despotic, not just because he's taking executive action without the approval of Congress, but because he is flagrantly ignoring the message the American people sent in the midterm elections.

Cruz argued that the midterms were actually a "referendum on amnesty" and that Obama is discarding the will of the people and becoming an "unaccountable monarch."

Cruz also pointed out that 1) Obama has said elections have consequences when they go his way, and 2) several Democrats who supported his immigration plan in the Senate were voted out. He again proposed that the Republican-held Senate should threaten to block every single Obama nominee if Obama attempts to act on his own.
