Ted Cruz got a blunt and profane reply from a Democratic lawmaker, sending MAGA into a frenzy over the weekend.
After Virginia took steps to adjust its maps to compensate for what it saw as political gerrymandering by Republicans, Cruz weighed in, calling it a “brazen abuse of power” and “an insult to democracy.”
He added, “47% of VA voted Trump. They will now get just 9% of the seats. 52% of VA voters voted Harris. Now they get 91% of the seats. (By comparison, in TX, 56% voted Trump; GOP gets 79% of the seats.)”
That comment didn’t go unnoticed by Virginia Senate President pro tempore L. Louise Lucas, a Democrat. In the past, Lucas has similarly issued warnings about gerrymandering, especially in Texas.
Lucas responded to Cruz on Friday night with a brutal reply described as “profanity laced” by Fox News.
“You all started it and we f—— finished it,” the lawmaker wrote.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez celebrated the comment, writing, “This is the energy. Thank you.”
But MAGA faithful Roger Stone seemed bothered by it.
“It’s not finished till it’s finished fat a–,” the Trump ally wrote.
MAGA influencer Braeden simply asked, “So now gerrymandering is okay?”
Investor Adam Rossi also wrote, “Really trashy. I would hope any representative of our Commonwealth from either party would express themselves with appropriate decorum. Children should not see state representatives conducting themselves like this in public spaces.”
