However Cruz’s feigned political correctness didn’t prolong to different marginalized teams, comparable to chubby individuals, as a result of he made a not-very-statesmanlike fats joke at Pritzker’s expense.
“And hear, I don’t need to get between JB Pritzker and the Domino’s pizza line, however I’ll inform you what I’m prepared to get between: It’s him and his open doorways for each human trafficker, each drug trafficker, each MS-13 and Tren de Aragua gang member,” Cruz mentioned.
If Cruz anticipated his lame Domino’s joke to go over properly, he was sorely mistaken.
“And I might by no means need to get between Ted and a visit to Cancun when there’s an emergency in Texas,” Pritzker clapped again, reminding individuals how Cruz left his fellow Texans to endure record-cold temperatures and energy outages whereas he and his household vacationed in Mexico.
After all, individuals on social media felt obliged to touch upon the political catfight.
