Ted Cruz just stepped in it
What’s remarkable about Senator Ted Cruz is that he manages to be such a creepy villain, and so tone-deaf to how villainy works, at the same time. If we didn’t know better, we’d think Cruz was trying to make a fool of himself with some of the things he says and does.
For instance, on Monday, Ted Cruz posted this simplistic, infantile, inaccurate, and just plain weird tweet: “Team Biden is soft on China.” Well okay then. First of all, who is “Team Biden” supposed to be? He’s really going to accuse these unnamed people around President Biden of being soft on China, without bothering to include their names? Oh that’s right, it’s because they don’t exist.
Naturally, everyone on Twitter latched onto how insipidly stupid this tweet was, and they began replying to Ted Cruz with all the awful things that Team Cruz is. It resulted in “Team Cruz” trending on Twitter for several hours, and not for the reasons that Ted Cruz might have hoped. He just keeps finding new ways to step in it.
