Ted Cruz Tells Brody File: Donald Trump And Hillary Clinton Have Same Record On Marriage And Planned Parenthood

In an exclusive interview with The Brody File, Ted Cruz says Donald Trump currently takes the same position as Hillary Clinton on the issues of marriage and Planned Parenthood. “They both believe today that taxpayer funded Planned Parenthood is a good thing that the federal should fund Planned Parenthood,” Cruz tells The Brody File. “On marriage, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have the same position, (that) the Supreme Court’s decision on marriage is the settled law of the land we’ve got to accept it and move on”

Our interview with Cruz took place Monday night in Des Moines Iowa. The Brody File crew was allowed exclusive access inside Cruz’s private meeting with Iowa pastors in both Cedar Rapids and Des Moines. This interview was conducted between events.

Both Trump and Cruz want to win Iowa but for Cruz it’s more imperative based on the large evangelical voting constituency. His campaign has more than a solid ground game, employing a robust micro-targeting strategy as well as having pastors all over the state organized on caucus night to get their congregants out to vote. He’ll need every single one of them to pull it out because Trump is a force in American politics.

Ted Cruz: “On Planned Parenthood, Donald Trump’s record is the same as Hillary Clinton’s. They both believe today that taxpayer funded Planned Parenthood is a good thing that the federal should fund Planned Parenthood. I disagree with that.”
 
Ted Cruz: “On healthcare, Donald Trump’s position today is the same as Bernie Sanders. They both support full-on Bernie Sanders socialized healthcare. They think Obamacare didn’t go far enough and the federal government should take over all of healthcare and get between you and your doctor.”
