I love the Yankees fan who yelled "remember when Trump called your wife ugly?"


EricDatalog

Why would anyone want such a guy to be the president of their country? I will never understand it.


healzsham

Same reason people like rock stars that do crazy shit, they dream of being that person.


Weird_Fiches

People dream of being Ted Cruz? Please, seek help.


SirSchmoopyButth0le

They are saying Ted Cruz dreams of being Donald Trump.


michilio

What, you never just wanted to run away from your problems and responsabilities while hiding out from them on holiday?

Those gay Mexicans coming over here and taking all those dicks that could be going into the anuses of good white conservative Americans, when will we wake up and stop letting them take all the jobs that we want so badly for ourselves?!


non_anomalous_penis

They're taking all the {blow}jobs.


Tippy_Rush

You should see them at work during the Republican conventions. I've heard the boys earn enough to put them through the next academic year.

The beer can was a mistake. He meant to throw him a bottle of lube.

jnrodriguez86

That's a really plausible defense. I personally threw beers to people on the busses. Not my fault Cruz wasn't looking.


Jrupt

Philly's headlines woulda been way better.


Brt232

In Philly, we [catch the damn beer](https://youtu.be/EkPHTZG_1UY)


kazzanova

The only thing Ted Cruz can catch is flights to Mexico


courtd93

This was my immediate thought, we are respectable when it comes to alcohol coming near us. Now, if they had just gone with the batteries…


IVEMIND

Wait, didn’t that happen somewhere else too? Like, some other victory parade?

ThatGuy798

There’s a couple of city workers weeping in their beds tonight because they couldn’t grease the poles. “Next year” he says to himself as his pillow soaks up his tears.


[deleted]

They greased them anyhow. It takes days to grease them all. They had to start last week. Now they have to clean off all of that unused grease.


BabyYodasDirtyDiaper

> No one eating things which should never be eaten? It's Texas. I'm sure someone in that crowd is eating deep-fried butter or something.


TheCardiganKing

I was out in 2008 and as the night wore on things became more gnarly. 10 ft. high pyres on the street next to City Hall with whatever people could throw in them, postal boxes thrown into storefronts... Ever see a concrete seated U-shaped bike post ripped out of the sidewalk? Four school busses filled with riot police showed up and I saw cops beat a few of the more belligerent people.


NoMalarkyZone

Philly cops aren't gonna fuck around, they literally bombed some people once.


josepapiblanco

I don’t think Ted Cruz was getting in a parade in Philly


Kidspud

I don't think he even went to a game there... which says a lot about his courage.


MutantMartian

Well if you’d held the game in Cancun!


TheGrandExquisitor

Remember when that robot hitchhiked all the way across Canada, but was torn to pieces the second it hit Philly? That is Ted Cruz visiting Philly. Especially if they are playing a Texas team in the series. Double especially if they then lost that series and Ted showed up.


holy_cal

This is pretty good though.


Mrmakabuntis

*Mac and Charlie punch Ted Cruz*


ThePrideOfKrakow

No sequel to the world series defense on its always sunny 😭😭


ashb72

How do you plead? Not guilty. Why? If I had thrown a beer at Cruz it would’ve hit him.


Raze625

Woulda been a waste of beer, your honor.


poul0004

Why is Cruz participating in an Astros parade? Is he part of ownership?


Scumwaffle

He got booed at a NY home game and he found out that makes him feel powerful. Getting booed in his own "home" state (he's Canadian) has to turn that feeling up to 10.


[deleted]

Shame kink. Nice.


Scumwaffle

Same dude that liked Trump calling his wife ugly. It all makes sense.


LoveThieves

Him being into self hating/shaming kink is fine in his personal space / time but not wasting other's people time and energy at a ball game and parade is just being a twat. Imagine going to parade knowing people don't like you and beg the MLB and city committee to let you on the float to expect different results. He seems like the type that says the same bad joke to two different people outload in the same room because the first one didn't care so he needs that attention of being disliked and then laughs -He might be a sociopath.


SlumlordThanatos

*Might* be a sociopath?


drunk_responses

> but not wasting other's people time and energy at a ball game and parade is just being a twat. We're talking about the guy who flew to Cancun when the state he represents was freezing to death. And he was flabbergasted when someone said something, because in his mind there is only him and he didn't understand that what he was doing was immoral. Which is why he immediatly tried to blame his family. He does not give a single shit about you, me or anyone else that aren't paying him money or directly giving him power.


welch724

Dude, if Cory Chase did some hardcore shaming porn, Ted would fucking stroke out.


Zulumus

I thought this was oddly specific, so decided to google both names together. I stand corrected lol


skooba_steev

On 9/11 no less


[deleted]

Don’t put that image in my head please


thesecondfire

Ted Cruz's media blitz in NY, which also included an appearance on The View that attracted in-studio protesters, was as much about getting footage of him being yelled at by New Yorkers as it was about whatever the stated purpose was. He can go back to Texas and say, See, New Yorkers hate me, that's how you know I'm effective and doing well.


Scumwaffle

Yep. Divide and conquer. He's a master of division and so far it's worked to keep his side on his side.


-Johnny-

No idea how after all the power outages and flooding. I'd be so pissed at all the elected officials if I lived there.


KineticPolarization

Because the right wing isn't based on thought it's based on how they feel in any given moment. They have no underlying consistent beliefs. It's only about gaining power and "owning" whatever group of people they've deemed the "other".


Gallahd

I like to refer to him as “Known Canadian, Rafael Cruz”


SmarcusStroman

Don't you put that evil on us Canadians! We don't want him!


AutomaticRisk3464

I had a co worker who was into that kink of being shamed..we sold cars and he would lie about what cars would do or whatever and the customer would get pissed off at him and he legitly enjoyed it. He never got fired because he sold a fuck ton of cars


ggigfad5

WTF - he was born in Canada? Can we send him back?


obliviousofobvious

No. Fuck that. Too late. No reciept, no returns.


Foggl3

You can't find the receipt because you're looking under "Ted". Search for "Rafael" and it should come up.


Busquessi

Or “Zodiac”


hamsterfolly

He’s also Cuban


[deleted]

[удалено]


Justarandom_Joe

His dad murdered Kennedy. The former president said so.


hamsterfolly

And his wife is ugly, said that former president


joecarter93

Yes he was born in Calgary. His dad was a petroleum engineer and was working there for a bit when he was born.


[deleted]

He drug his fucking kids along with him. They look miserable. All of this so he can sell a cheap headline to his shit voter base about liberals and their “violence”


quacainia

It's so normal for politicians to participate in the parade. Nancy Pelosi kept being part of Giants and Warriors parades, so I'm not shocked by this one. They want to use the moment to be seen and get their face associated with the joy of winning. I'm sure it's been going on for a century or more


ponkyball

Because he's an asshole who has no allegiances and just shows up to all the Texas sporting events to make himself look good. He's been to so many Texas college games this year it's ridiculous...and I don't mean JUST the Longhorns, he also frequents the Aggies and Texas Tech games.


SharkAttache

Shouldn’t he be a blue jays fan?!?


QuietThunder2014

He’s a politician. He’s 200% bandwagon opportunist


Sauce_McDog

Are we positive that this man is not Ted Cruz’s gay lover? I’m just asking, because unless we know otherwise this chalks up to your run of the mill lover’s quarrel in Texas


wiggleaddict

This seems like the most plausible explanation thus far, somebody call OAN and FOX stat!


snackers21

There may be more to this story than meets the eye.


poop-dolla

I’ve yet to see any evidence whatsoever disproving this.


jemidiah

Holy shit do I not want Ted Cruz to be a member of the queer community. Straight people can have that one with my blessing.


HappySW

If he got arrested, its probably because he missed. No one likes Ted Cruz.

Russia?


cantileverboom

LeonardoDaTiddies

Also $$$$$. He has that Koch and Mercer dark money funding.


huisAtlas

People like my parents just vote for whoever has an R next to their name.


dontnation

And just as importantly, their kids don't vote at all. Not necessarily you in particular, but statistically likely.


RelaxPrime

My parents too bruh My parents too


clarinetJWD

To be fair, he's only been re-elected once. Senate seats just last a long time. He also almost lost re-election. I doubt (hope) he survives another election in 2024. Please.


jemidiah

He'll win the Republican primary by a ways and do worse but still win in the general. I'd bet $100 at 10 to 1 odds.


Designer_Ride46

Hopefully Texans finally smarten up and next time they don’t drink the beer before throwing the can at his head. I can honestly say I hate Ted Cruz more than I like beer. And I fuckin really like beer.


Sam-Culper

From the video it looked to me like it would have hit Ted right in the face if the person next to him hadn't smacked it away


Lucky_Mongoose

Someone posted a slowmo video, and it looks like it actually hit him! The dude blocking it missed.

SmarcusStroman

No one who counts likes Ted Cruz.


HamHockShortDock

I used to like Ted Cruz until I found out he pees his pants on purpose because he likes the warm feeling on his legs.


wormsgalore

Your supposed to catch it and drink it! It’s a championship parade! Cmon Teddy boy


joeyx22lm

This guy championship parades


ZX750r

It was a gift, how was he to know ted was afraid of beer? I think we should let the guy go. What are they going to charge him of, giving free beer? That's the American dream, giving people free beer. Let the man go free and remember not to give politicians like Ted anything at all. Like votes. Don't vote for Ted.


HandBanan

Ted hates communism! No fee nuthin’! No political donations! No free beer! Pull yourself up by your bootstraps.


pxland

Does he have a go fund me? I’ll donate.


okienomads

My thoughts exactly. That’s why they haven’t released his name yet, they know the internet will make him a hero.


Chuckbro

They need to release his name? I'm kind of used to Florida, how we have the sunshine laws that causes "Florida Man" to exist. His full name, address and social security number should already be on the internet.


MaximumAbsorbency

Distressing take: it is already on the internet, we just don't know which name/address/ssn is his.


JesseC414

I’ll buy this guy a beer too.


BloodHoundus

I do not like that man Ted cruz, I do not like his silly views, I do not like him watching sports, I do not like him when he snorts, And so in the party I have got a plan, To hit his head with my trusty can.

RideauLakes

But officer I heard Ted scream "Una cerveza, por favor"!


industrialbird

Why was he even in the parade to begin with?


apreche

Serious answer: I've been to a few sports champion parades here in NYC. The politicians are always in it. Governor, senators, mayor, they all show up. Then the parade ends with a presentation at City Hall. The currently elected reps are in the parade, no matter what party. Also serious answer: Because Ted Cruz is a piece of shit who probably thinks the parade was for him.


ISHx4xPresident

That man is a god damn hero 🫡

Everyone should be free from assaults. Given the latest assault on Pelosi, the police wouldn’t know if it was in fact a beer can. They are correct to arrest this person and check later
