Sad Ted Cruz phone-banking for Donald Trump is a pretty great meme
If you were asked to imagine a portrait of a man swallowing his pride, it might look a lot like this picture of Ted Cruz.
The Dallas Morning News shot some video of Cruz phone-banking for Republicans on Wednesday. He wasn't specifically doing it for Trump — as our own Dave Weigel notes, he didn't mention Trump — but he did do it in front of a row of Trump-Pence posters, which gave it that appearance.
By Thursday, the video was making the rounds on Twitter, as people poked fun at the idea of Cruz making calls for a man who attacked his wife on multiple occasions and suggested his father might have been involved in the John F. Kennedy assassination.
The Internet has thoughts on the image:
