Protests continued at the home of Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas following his widely publicized vacation to Cancun in the midst of his state's winter storm emergency.

On Sunday, February 21 the protesters were joined by some very special guests—a mariachi band.




Since Cruz didn't end up getting to go on his Mexican vacation, many hoped he would be grateful for this little taste of the country.



Cruz's unpopularity seems to be reaching a fever pitch following his embarrassing misstep he initially blamed on his daughters.



Twitter was, of course, as thrilled as ever to pile onto the Texas Republican Senator.



It's unknown whether Cruz was inside the house at the time, but if he was there's no chance he didn't hear the music.


There are few situations that can't be improved by the inclusion of a mariachi band. This protest was no exception.

Video Of Elephant Peeing While Being Led Into Texas Republican Convention Sparks Hilarious Jokes

The elephant has long been the symbol and mascot for the Republican party, so it makes sense that Republicans in Texas led an elephant into the state's GOP convention—they just didn't anticipate that the symbolism would go off the charts when the elephant promptly peed on the floor of the venue.

Attendees at Houston's George R. Brown Convention Center were told to expect a "larger-than-life surprise" following Gov. Greg Abbott's keynote address on Friday, with organizers also reminding the crowd to keep the aisles clear. Moments after Abbott finished speaking, Paige, an African elephant draped in a campaign-style banner, entered the convention hall.
