Twitter Users Spot The ‘Embarrassing’ Part Of Ted Cruz’s T-Shirt Tweet
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) trended on Twitter Thursday after he shared a screenshot which appeared to show that he’d been searching for his own name on the platform.

The Donald Trump sycophant was firing back at a post which claimed that a mocking T-shirt bearing his likeness ― and the slogan “Politics in the front, Insurrection in the back,” referencing Cruz’s refusal to accept the 2020 election result ― had faded after one wash.
Critics accused the Texas Republican, who in 2017 blamed a staffer for accidentally “liking” a hardcore porn video from his account, of being “desperate” after they spotted the search bar containing the terms “tedcruz OR @tedcruz Or s…” at the top of the image:
Doesn't Ted Cruz have an important job that doesn't involve searching for his own damn name on Twitter? https://t.co/fvaSxOoTay

Yet another self-own by @TedCruz. This time? Searching Twitter for his own name. https://t.co/aBvD4LOFLB

The third term in the search bar is "seditionist".

Searching your own name on Twitter is a cry for help. https://t.co/xXVDbr0ZYs

It's funny that you didn't crop out that you're a name searcher, One of the most insecure things you can do

— m🍃✨ (@ummmmbri) May 6, 2021
It faded as quickly as your presidential run
