For some reason known only to him, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) seems to take great delight in attempting to mock, shame, or troll people on social media when they do something honorable, noble, or thoughtful.
Such is the case with a snotty comment Cruz made in response to a tweet sent out by Mr. T:
That led Cruz to respond:
Really, Ted? Maybe you should officially change your name to Sen. Asshole, because that’d be a hell of a lot more accurate.
The resulting blowback on social media was a reminder to Cruz that sometimes he needs to remain silent rather than proving his own pettiness.
