Cruz reached into his bag of ready answers and insisted that gun safety legislation would have passed after Sandy Hook, if not for him. "Much of Washington was consigned," he insisted. "I did everything I could to energize and mobilize the grassroots, to stand up and protect the Second Amendment, and every single proposal of Barack Obama would undermine the Second Amendment, was voted down on the Senate floor."
