Ted Cruz's Fat Joke About Illinois Governor Just Leads To More Humiliation

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) attempted to mock Illinois Gov.JB Pritzker (D) with a fat joke on Wednesday, only to end up being humiliated after the governor roasted him back.

During an interview on Newsmax, the Texas Republican attacked Pritzker for objecting toDonald Trump’s threats to deploy the National Guard in Chicago.

“What a disgusting, racist bigot JB Pritzker is,” Cruz said, implying that the governor’s attacks on Trump were somehow a slight against Latinos.

But Cruz’s feigned political correctness didn’t extend to other marginalized groups, such as overweight people, because he made a not-very-statesmanlike fat joke at Pritzker’s expense.
