Politics cringe ted cruz viral
Ted Cruz got the whitewash out to erase this Charlie Kirk graffiti and it went viral for all the wrong reasons
Senator Ted Cruz hasn’t always come through with quick and effective responses to local or national tragedies.
But this time he acted swiftly and took matters into his own hands. Something it looks like he’s absolutely never done in his entire life, based on the video below.

Cruz is erasing hateful graffiti posted along Highway 59 in Houston, TX. Good on him for the willingness to roll up his sleeves, get his hands dirty, and do some manual labor.
Unfortunately, the bizarre way he went about putting in the work garnered a lot of attention online. And definitely not the type of attention he was seeking.
Here are the funniest reactions to the photo opp gone wrong.
1.
the form of a man who’s never had a hard job in his life

This is a perfect example of the GOP making something worse. Why not use a paint that matches the color of the concrete?

What was Ted’s paint the same color as the writing? Why didn’t he get brown paint?

"Guys, make sure you get the cameras in position. I'm definitely not doing this for a social media photo session."
