1. The Pittsburgh bit is Trump's

Cruz is stealing from a moron.

This is the second tweet lie this for Cruz. I’m sure he thinks it’s really clever.

[bullwinkle428]

4. Written by Stephen Miller, so it's an entire chain of moron-stealing-from-moron!

[LiberalLovinLug]

56. How can any man have such lack of shame or personal ethics?

To be so subservient to a man who smeared his father, and called his wife ugly? Never apologized.

Yes Trump's words : "'I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris'"

So Ted gives a shoutout to his cult leader. He is doubling down on tying himself to Trump and the Trump cult. He wants to piggy back off of QAnon, keep stoking the CT fires.

[underpants]

60. He just think this will work.

I can’t see him appealing to voters and Trump will screw him over just to screw him over.

[LiberalLovinLug]

61. Of all the people I wish the most for Trump to screw over is Ted Cruz

As much as I enjoyed the hurt reactions to Trump's pissiness at appointees and military personnel that quit on him, or defied him. Sessions, Bar, Pence (after all I did for him...)...

There is no one, well, maybe Lindsey, that I'd rather watch be humiliated and dressed down and disowned by Trump than Ted fucking Cruz. He has cast his lot with the orange traitor, and if that happened, he'd have no where to go

[marie999]

2. Cruz is even dumber than I thought.

[Cuthbert Allgood]

18. He's nowhere near dumb.

He's a brilliant lawyer. He's playing to the base, and knows that will work. That makes him a demagogue, for sure. But he's not dumb.

[gab13by13]

26. The wise man realizes how ignorant he is.

[Cuthbert Allgood]

28. I don't think he is ignorant about why the Paris Accords are called that.

He's playing to the base. It sucks, but it doesn't mean he doesn't know the truth.

[Maraya1969]

29. If that's true than I can see why they want to keep people stupid. Ignorant people

are more easily manipulated and fooled.

[lindysalsagal]

36. The GOP is entirely Orwellian.

[iluvtennis]

31. +++ agree. Cruz is playing to as trump would say the "less educated" voter base. nt

[Polybius]

76. He's also a phenomenal debater

I wouldn't doubt it if he's the nominee in 2024.

[58Sunliner]

78. What is he going to debate with though? The pack of lies he keeps shuffling?

Ted has all the appeal of watching paint dry.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

80. 2024 nominee of which party? Insane MAGAt party or rotting elephant carcass party?

[whathehell]

81. AOC just made him a laughingstock..

I wouldn't count on his 2024 nomination.

[Cuthbert Allgood]

84. So do you think the Republican base just said,

"Damn, that AOC has a valid point. That was a pretty stupid remark by Cruz."

[whathehell]

85. I don't think we know what the GOP, or it's "base"

will look like in two years, let alone four.

At present, they are in a divided shambles, with many, including McConnell, wanting to purge the Trumpers and the extremists.

[alp227]

33. Yet his supporters believe that about AOC

to the point they have to make up quotes attributed to her

[Polybius]

75. He was the top student in his class at Harvard

He's a lot of things, but dumb isn't one of them.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

79. He thinks base dumber than you think they are. Wants to lead party of man who called Cruz' wife ugly

[essaynnc]

3. just like Batman...

Wham !!! Whack!!! OOOF!!!! $%#@!!!!!

[flor-de-jasmim]

5. 1 more person who should just stay off Twitter--for his own good, if he were smart enough to know it

[Wounded Bear]

13. "Better to be silent and be thought a fool...

than to speak and remove all doubt."

-Usually attributed to Lincoln IIRC.

55. Treaty of Paris--1783

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Paris_(1783)

The Treaty of Paris, signed in Paris by representatives of King George III of Great Britain and representatives of the United States of America and Canada on September 3, 1783, officially ended the American Revolutionary War.The treaty set the boundaries between the British Empire in North America and the United States of America, on lines "exceedingly generous" to the latter.

You might think that Cruz would actually know about this treaty, which is as much a founding document of the USA as the Declaration.

It predates Texas.

[NotANeocon]

70. Regarding that "Canada"

The quote - in typical Wikipedia fashion- fails to say whether it is referring to Upper Canada or Lower Canada which both existed at that time as part of the British North American Territories. Canada -as a country - did not exist in 1783.

Canada - as a country - did not in fact exist until June 1 1867/

[kiri]

87. you of course are entirely correct about the Canadas

My point was that in some crazy foreign place like Paris, with Ben Franklin present, it was agreed that there would be a country named The United States. Just getting the Brits to surrender in the Rev War did not do that.

This Treaty created the legal entity of the USA.

[NotANeocon]

89. Yup - and to this day it's the USA -

NOT America - which is a continent and not a state or country. The USA is a part of that continent.

[Freedomofspeech]

6. What do you know about Pittsburgh, Cruz?

It is a medical and technology center.

[panader0]

7. Bullseye with one shot.

[MyOwnPeace]

8. And Pittsburgh is in Pennsylvania

which PRESIDENT BIDEN won by 81,000 true, sincere, legitimate votes!

[mmbrevo]

19. And cruz tried to steal their votes.

[jcgoldie]

9. Cruz is tweeting to his base

As Trump always did. All they know is that Paris is someplace far far away and no rill 'mericans live there so it must just be a wicked democrat plan to give our money to furriners...

[dreamland]

11. Exactly. Cruz is playing a subversive game here.

[AmyStrange]

37. +100000000000000000000000000000000 x 2

[ahoysrcsm]

90. Just tell Cruz, Paris is in Texas.

[John Ludi]

10. One more two-legged reason

why elected offices should be harder to get into than the night shift cleanup guy at a fucking Taco Bell.

[RVN VET71]

12. Dear AOC,

please keep after this asshole. His twitter lies are directed at the already brain-compromised Trumpers who are especially vulnerable now that their “Chosen” leader has been sent away.

[Rowdyag]

14. And I

Used to think Cornyn was my really dumb senator

[kentuck]

15. She's like the cop on the beat...

for these hypocrites and liars.

[griloco]

16. Cruz got A'OCked

Nt

[Mc Mike]

17. I'm from Pittsburgh, Ted, and fuck you, you cuban canadian texan.

You don't speak for us.

[Pepsidog]

20. Pandering to his ignorant masses who know nothing about the agreement.

[JohnnyRingo]

21. This should be embarrassing to Cruz.

Except he and other republicans like Gohmert and Nunes have shown that they do not have a sense of shame. All they need is to be one IQ point higher than the majority of their constituents.

[Dukkha]

22. and just like that

Cruz regained his title of most hated person in DC with the most punchable face. A slimy worm.

[marble falls]

23. I don't think Cruz meant what it sounded like, but he screwed himself by being clever and ...

... using Paris instead of using any other city in the world.

He's actually right because Joe Biden understands if the world is dying, the US dies, too. But Cruz doesn't even realize it.

He's a Senator and not only speaks himself into a confused statement, he's on the wrong side of the issue either way. Intellectually the man is a ball of confusion to most of his listeners.

[tanyev]

24. And if somebody gave Ted an all expense paid trip to Paris, he'd jump on it in a heartbeat.

[liberalla]

25. Damn! She's good!

and I'm pretty sure I've said that before!

[bdamomma]

27. Ted Cruz

I hope he and Hawley get implicated for their role in the insurrection. This is not going to be business as usual the ones who incited the insurrection must pay.

[yellowdogintexas]

64. Removing him from the Senate would make millions of Texans jump for joy

First of all we would be rid of him
Secondly, it would trigger a special election which would most likely be won by Beto.

Ah the irony!

[bdamomma]

71. Beto

is just waiting in the wings. He's a good guy.

[The Wizard]

30. Maybe licking Trump's

sphincter is sound political strategy in Texas.. Ted's appeal to the radical ignorant fringe says more about him than it does about them.

[GreenEyedLefty]

32. Cruz finished second to DFT in the 2016 primary

He's gunning for the nomination in 2024. We have to keep these assholes pinned down.

[jaxexpat]

34. Sorry Ted, only actual humans will qualify to enter the GOP presidential field in 2024.

They have upped their qualifications a LOT and now you're outta there.

[Arne]

40. They can't wake up Herman Cain. He's sound asleep and someone buried him.

[Polybius]

77. I wish that were true, but it isn't

Moderates will get their asses handed to them in the 2022 and 2024 GOP primaries.

[Paladin]

35. Cruz ought to face that kind of attack every day, for what's left of his political career. (nt)

[NCjack]

38. Perhaps, when Cruz was finishing his studies at university,

he was smarter than this. He needs a brain scan, and not by Qanon.

[SKKY]

39. AOC's clap-back game is on mother f'ing FLEEK!!!! Just take the "L" Ted and walk away...

....you can't with this kid from the Bronx. You just can't. Don't even try.

[Hiawatha Pete]

41. K&R

[IronLionZion]

42. Pittsburgh voted for Biden by a large margin

because like Trump, Cruz is an ass clown

[DinahMoeHum]

43. Tee hee! Great clap-back!

[moondust]

44. TKO

We have a winner!

[First Speaker]

45. Go back to Canada, Mountieboy...

...keep the moustache, shave the beard, and change your name to Snidely Whiplash...

[ironflange]

50. NO NO NO YOU CAN KEEP HIM

[thesquanderer]

46. But AOC should know, there was no Geneva Convention, they are the Geneva Conventions (rules) n/t

[MyOwnPeace]

57. Thank you for bringing that to our attention.......

Actually, there WAS a "GENEVA CONVENTION" - in 1863 - IN GENEVA - where they met to agree on a set of rules that became known as the "First Geneva Convention."

The acts or "rules" passed at these meetings or "CONVENTIONS" became known as "GENEVA CONVENTIONS" (yeah, RULES that came out of meetings/"CONVENTIONS!"

It is easy to get them confused - one is a group of meetings and the other is a set of rules.

[thesquanderer]

62. I didn't know that the meetings where they established the conventions were called conventions!ty,nt

[MyOwnPeace]

66. Not just you, believe me!

I had to "look it up!"

I'm sure AOC's tweet has only added to the "huh?" factor of it all!

[BobTheSubgenius]

47. I can't believe this idiot could FIND an Ivy League school,

let alone graduate from one. As he's a Texan, I'll use one of my favourite expressions from that region:

If he were going to be any bigger an idiot, he'd have to put on weight.

[MyOwnPeace]

58. Can you imagine.......

the fun Molly Ivins would be having with him!

[Hekate]

48. Cruz has gone full demagogue: he's NOT stupid, but sure thinks "his base" is...

...and plans to keep them that way.

[tymorial]

49. He simply cannot be that stupid. He has to be pandering to the morons right?

Jesus Christ.

[grantcart]

51. To quote from the Lincoln Project (who is making Cruz their no 1 target)

"Ted Cruz is a force of nature, you either hate Ted Cruz, or you hate Ted Cruz."

[Wash. state Desk Jet]

72. That simply translates to

Cruz is a bigger ass hole than he is a jerk.

[Blue Owl]

52. Ted really showed 'em

...what an absolute idiot he really is

[movingviolation]

53. Sweeeeeet burn!

Cruz is embarrassingly stupid, so stupid in fact, that he isn't embarrassed, and opens his mouth, proving the astronomical level of his stupidity. He is playing to base though, a demagogue wannabe.

[Nitram]

54. Ouch!

[Nululu]

59. Glad she's got the guts to speak out on this

[CaptYossarian]

63. Ted should resign and try to mend things with his wife.

Trump savagely attacked Mrs. Cruz, so Ted fellates the twice-impeached vulgarian.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

65. Wasn't the '95 Dayton Peace Accord about peace in Dayton OH?!

Why have I even bothered to be peaceful otherwise?!


Ted Cruz is an idiot!

[UTUSN]

67. Why do the yakking heads keep claiming that Rafael Carnival CRUZ is so "smart"?!1

AOC wipes the floor with him any given day.

[whathehell]

83. Yeah, where's all the talk about how smart SHE is?

and that could apply to any number of "shes", by the way -- Liz Warren,
AOC, Katie Porter....Way too scary, I guess.

[LAS14]

68. k & r

[Ellen Forradalom]

69. The Evian Accords

were about mineral water and the Good Friday Agreement was about Easter

[secondwind]

73. Greta Thunberg was even better:

"So happy that USA has finally rejoined the Pittsburgh Agreement. Welcome back!"

[Joinfortmill]

74. ROFL

[Vivienne235729]

82. Ouch! Someone check. Is he Still breathing after that?

Way to go AOC!! Love her!!

[calimary]

86. Go get him, AOC!

Speak for ME, A-O-Ceeeeeee, Speak for Meeeeeee!

I’m just kinda singing everything this morning. In a real good mood! Just heard about Nancy Pelosi’s sending an early Impeachment Valentine to the Senate, and I just got a new granddaughter! What a great news morning!

[jalan48]

88. People say Cruz fantasies about this.
