GOP Rep. Peter King: I Received "Vile, Obscene" Calls From Ted Cruz Supporters
REP. PETER KING (R-NY): Listen, you can't always blame the person if his followers act in a terrible way. But, I mean, the type of vile, obscene phone calls coming in from people who claim to be his supporters and I have women, young women, interns and full-timers in their late teens, early 20s and they get these phone calls. They are the most gross, vile, obscene type of comments being made.
Again, I'm not saying that's his fault, but I think he is tapping into something out there that is just mean and ugly and we have an obligation to -- again, not to do go down this path, not to somehow give people this idea that I could just vote tomorrow to defund Obamacare and that's going to repeal the president's healthcare bill. The fact is, it passed both houses of Congress, it was signed by the president, it was declared constitutional by the Supreme Court, a presidential election was fought on it and the president won.
If we want to repeal it, we should. I want to repeal it as strongly as possible, but we have to do it through the ordinary legislative process, and that's to repeal it in both Houses. To do that we need more Republicans in the House and Senate and then we need to have it signed by a Republican president.
