Hollywood legend Christopher Meloni trolled Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) after the conservative politician moaned about his midterm election fears.

The "Law & Order" franchise star responded to the Texas Republican's Fox News interview on Monday night, where Cruz told the conservative outlet that if Democrats take the majority in the House of Representatives that GOP lawmakers, including President Donald Trump, could have a difficult road ahead.

"I'm spending a lot of time supporting other candidates," Cruz said. "I think this midterm election is the most important midterm that we've ever seen. If the Democrats take the House it will be nonstop impeachment and attacking President Trump every single day. And if they take the Senate, they'll do that and they'll also shut down every confirmation for every Cabinet member, every judge. Their view is total warfare."

Meloni mocked Cruz over his remarks, calling out the GOP leader.

"We canNOT allow accountability to take hold of our govt and the people in it. We need to continue weaponization, cronyism, and incompetence," Meloni wrote on X.
