Ted Cruz isn’t having a very good day
Republican Senator Ted Cruz had the nerve to show up to the Capitol today for President Joe Biden’s inauguration, which was wildly inappropriate considering Cruz led the charge in inciting a domestic terrorist attack against that same building just two weeks ago.
Ted Cruz behaved himself during the inauguration, and in fact he seems intent on trying to normalize himself. During the ceremonies, Cruz tweeted things like “Lady Gaga singing the national anthem at the Biden Inauguration” and “Biden takes the oath. May God bless the United States of America.”
The trouble for Ted Cruz: he received thousands (and in some cases tens of thousands) of negative replies on every one of these tweets, often ending with an upside down ratio of likes to replies. It’s clear that no one is about to let Cruz forget that he incited domestic terrorism. Today was a reminder of that.
