Ted Cruz: Republicans Are the Party of Workers, Democrats ‘Coastal Elites’

Cruz is drawing a hard line between the two parties, saying Republicans represent workers with calluses on their hands, while Democrats represent rich coastal elites. Cruz said the Republican Party stands for truck drivers, steel workers, cops, firefighters, waiters, and waitresses, the people he says keep the country running every day. He then contrasted that image with Democrats, whom he mocked as the party of soy latte-sipping coastal elites.
