Ted Cruz Likes Porn Video on Twitter
If you think your day has been rough imagine being a politician, waking up, and seeing that you're trending on Twitter. United States Senator Ted Cruz woke up to many folks laughing at his expense. Ted Cruz has over 3 Million followers and "liked" a 2 minute pornographic video from the account @SexuallPosts. The account @SexuallPosts didn't waste any time, they quickly replied "Thanks for watching ted!" and updated their twitter profile bio saying "Follow for the Same Porn @TedCruz Watches." Still no word if the new slogan on @SexuallPosts is helping them with web traffic.
Cruz joined several republicans last summer in calling the porn industry a "serious health crisis" At one point Ted Cruz wanted to ban sex toys in the state of Texas. With Cruz's strong stance against the pornography industry many people were perplexed as to how or why Ted Cruz would "like" the pornographic video clip. Several Twitter users had a hay day tweeting about the incident. Late Night Star Jimmy Kimmel tweeted "Well done @TedCruz using the power of 'like' to illustrate the evils of porn,"
An adviser to Ted Cruz responded after the incident with "The offensive tweet posted on @tedcruz account earlier has been removed by staff and reported to Twitter." The incident has been called a "staffing issue" There is still no word if the unnamed staff member will continue to have access to the social media account. Ted Cruz didn't stay quiet concerning the incident, he had a witty response. "This is not how I envisioned waking up this morning. Although I will say that if I had known that this would trend so quickly, perhaps we should have posted something like this back during the Indiana primary." Well hey Senator Cruz, now we know what can put you on the presidential ballot in 2020!
