Dunce Cap Award: Timex Cruz

 Raphael "Ted" Cruz must've been a school bully when he was growing up.

How else to explain how this Texas Twit keeps picking fights on Twitter that he can't win? Either it's comedians (Jimmy Kimmel, Patton Oswalt), other politicians (Alex From The Block), or Sesame Street. Cruz comes across like a bully, and ends looking like a dunce.

The latest example comes after Sesame Workshop, the producers of Sesame Street, co-produced a PSA with the Centers for Disease Control, presenting Elmo and his father, Louie. Check it.


You'll recall that back in November, Cruz similarly raged over the perpetually six year old Big Bird getting a COVID vaccine. Elmo's permanently three, and he got the shot, so Cruz pulled out his bully card on Twitter. Cruz needs to stop vexing on fictional characters illustrating a very important health & safety issue, and start doing what he was elected to do for his constituents in Texas. As it is, he picks up another Dunce Cap for this latest bout of stupidity.
