The young American conservative voters are "integral to transforming" America, led by the only president-elect who had been shot in the head and could rise to shout, "Fight, fight, fight," Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, told Turning Point Action's America Fest in Phoenix, Arizona, on Sunday morning.

"In 2024, you are young and passionate and every one of you is integral to transforming the United States of America," Cruz told the crowd in a speech that aired in part Sunday on Newsmax and the free Newsmax2 streaming platform. "The Washington Swamp is terrified of you. Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris are terrified of you."

Cruz hailed the "clear and unequivocal" mandate delivered by the American electorate, giving President-elect Donald Trump all seven of the battleground states.
