'Every ad makes me like Beto more': Ted Cruz's latest attack on Beto O'Rourke for swearing massively backfires

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) put out a new ad attacking Democratic opponent Beto O'Rourke on Monday -- and he was quickly buried in mockery.


A new video ad posted on Cruz's Twitter account attacks O'Rourke for repeatedly dropping the f-word during various public appearances.

"If Beto shows up in your town, maybe keep the kids at home," the ad states.

Given Cruz's full-throated support for President Donald Trump -- who was infamously caught on camera bragging about committing sexual assault -- the senator quickly found himself getting hammered by Twitter followers who slammed him for being an egregious hypocrite.
