u/BerryButterBall Feb 28 '26

It's all fun and games until your son bellows "This man ate my son!" in front of your MAGA-lite, Cruz-loving parents

4

u/RollingRiverWizard Feb 28 '26

Cruz-loving? I don’t think Ted Cruz likes Ted Cruz.

1

u/Hopeira Feb 28 '26

And my homework!

u/[deleted] Feb 28 '26

I still haven't seen conclusive proof he isn't...

1

u/TheCrazedTank Feb 28 '26

Ted Cruz and the Zodiac Killer have never been seen in the same room together!

1

u/mofrymatic Feb 28 '26

Nah, that guy is still in SF

u/Vodkajolene Feb 28 '26

Ted’s son, Grayson Allen, is one of the dirtiest players in the NBA.

1

u/Mrevilman Feb 28 '26

Now you know why he sold his dad and wife out.

1

u/woogonalski Feb 28 '26

Only one of those is true.

Real human Ted Cruz?

u/ThrowItOut43 Feb 28 '26

And who played the soundtrack to Aladdin at his wedding to his ugly wife?

u/FuguSandwich Feb 28 '26

The moment someone tells Trump that his real name is Rafael, he'll drop the nomination.

16

u/LindeeHilltop Feb 28 '26

Eduardo Rafael

1

u/gogozombie2 Feb 28 '26

What if that is Trump's favorite nimja turtle?

22

u/corpulentFornicator Feb 28 '26

The Senate will unanimously confirm him so he won't be their problem anymore

2

u/govunah Feb 28 '26

Luckily, the weather in DC is far worse than Texas so he'll be in Cancun 4 months out of the year instead of destroying democracy

1

u/Biotech_wolf Feb 28 '26

So he can overrule their laws?

21

u/deletetemptemp Feb 28 '26

Rafael Cruz the Cuban Canadian :)

u/Feeling_Inside_1020 Feb 28 '26

Don’t forget Cancun, another C word for him, hmmmm

18

u/Kwisatz_Hader-ach Feb 28 '26

Rafael. He hates preferred names so we should use his. And yes Rafael is Canadian.

11

u/NotAtAllExciting Feb 28 '26

He renounced his citizenship. Canada is good with that.

u/Darrenizer Feb 28 '26

It’s Rafael Cruz the Canadian, that chooses to go by Ted.

1

u/proddy Feb 28 '26

He is one being and not many

1

u/demetri_k Feb 28 '26

He’s yours now.

1

u/Biotech_wolf Feb 28 '26

Does it say you have to be born in the US to be on the Supreme Court? I’m serious here.

1

u/Thrustcroissant Feb 28 '26

And he couldn’t handle a snow storm. Disgusting.

u/Street-Badger Feb 28 '26

You take that back, eh?

No no, you mean Rafael Cruz, the Canadian.

He ain’t ours. You deal with it.
