Twitter Makes Ted Cruz Instantly Regret His Weak Attempt at 'Man From Nantucket' Biden Joke

For much of the public, right-wing Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has become more infamous for his social media stunts than his legislative achievements.

From failing to crop out his search history in a screenshot to getting roasted by a war hero for his take on a Russian military ad, these stunts often backfire. The Senator somehow has time for Twitter spats with everyone from Seth Rogen to Dan Rather to Trevor Noah.


Cruz's most recent Twitter snafu was in response to news that President Joe Biden would be traveling to Nantucket, Massachusetts for Thanksgiving.

Cruz responded by reciting the opening line of an infamous dirty limerick that utilizes certain phrases which rhyme with "Nantucket."

Earlier this year, as Cruz's state of Texas faced devastating winter storms that decimated its independent power grid, the Senator flew to sunny Cancún, Mexico as hundreds of his constituents froze to death. After national outcry, Cruz returned early and claimed he was just escorting his family to the tropical getaway. As lawmakers like Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York raised millions of dollars in relief for the state, Cruz staged a photo-op of himself carrying bottles of water to a car trunk in an empty parking lot.

This was what crossed people's minds as they responded with limericks of their own.



But not all the responses were Cancun related.

Cruz's immaturity apparently knows no bounds.



Cruz has yet to expand on the meaning of the post.

After President Donald Trump lashed out at late-night host Seth Meyers on Truth Social over the weekend and called him a "truly deranged lunatic," Meyers responded to Trump’s “ranting and raving” about him with a damning supercut on his program.

Trump apparently tuned in to Thursday night’s episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, where Meyers poked fun at the president’s complaints about Navy aircraft carriers using electromagnetic catapults instead of traditional steam-powered ones. Meyers joked that Trump "spends more time thinking about catapults than Wile E. Coyote."

Girl's Hilarious Reaction To Getting Divisive Candy For Halloween Caught On Doorbell Cam

In the '80s and '90s, kids were raised with the understanding that they got what they got, and they should say, "Thank you," for what they received. This was true for birthdays, holidays, and trick-or-treating on Halloween, even if they got candy they wanted to throw away the instant they turned the corner.

But kids today are much more communicative about what they like and don't like, and they can be brutal in their bluntness.

People Share The Best Ways To Shut Down A Debate With A Flat Earther Family Member

The Flat Earth conspiracy theory is strictly a modern online movement, rumored to have begun as a prank, that gained momentum among people who mistrust authority through the power of social media.

There is a persistent myth that Europeans in the Middle Ages believed the Earth was flat. But that is a 19th-century fabrication to sell Columbus Day, not historical reality.
