Internet users are mocking Sen. Ted Cruz after the Texas Republican tried to attack President Joe Biden’s decision to go on a weekend vacation to Delaware.
Cruz shared an official GOP tweet on Saturday that lashed out at President Biden for taking a weekend trip to Delaware for the Columbus Day weekend.
In the tweet, a GOP spokesperson said: “Joe Biden has decided to go on vacation yet again. He is running away from all the problems he has caused.”
Cruz then followed up by quote tweeting the GOP account’s post and bringing up his own controversy-hit Cancun trip.
“Cancun is lovely this time of year,” Cruz wrote.
Naturally, social media users had to respond:
Cancun is lovely this time of year. https://t.co/LtCqwKjRCI

Hey Rafael, first time long time. Can you retweet your objections of Trump golfing every weekend for four years and avoiding his responsibility for hundred of thousands of American deaths during the outbreak of Covid. I’ll hang up and wait for your response.

Imagine if your own state elected official abandoned you and fled to another country as soon as things got a little difficult in your state.

As a constituent of your's, I REALLY don't think your choice to abandon us in our time of need is something for you to joke about. Especially with winter coming & everyone reporting it's going to be much worse than last year. It WASN'T funny then, nor is it funny now.

Teddy if you said nothing while the orange menace spend $124 million in vacations, maybe now is not the time to complain.— My hero 👈 Alice Paul (@gr8astro) October 9, 2021

I also love reminding your constituents that you literally fled the country during a massive crisis leaving them behind to suffer as you get a wrinkly chub tan
