Ted Cruz Outs Himself as Thirstiest Dude on Twitter While Merchandising a T-Shirt That Owns Him
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) – world traveler, election objector, Twitter beefer, noted luncher, not-particularly–well-liked lawmaker, and much–mocked haircut-bearer – apparently searched Twitter for mentions of himself on Thursday, and found at least one that he thought was worth his time.

“Probably made in China,” Cruz wrote, along with a screenshot of not only the original post at issue – a wrinkled, faded T-shirt with an image of Cruz and text reading “Politics in the front. Insurrection in the back.” – but the search field that revealed what Cruz was really doing on Twitter: “tedcruz OR @tedcruz OR s…”
(One can only presume that the next search term was related to his official senatorial Twitter account, @SenTedCruz.)
The original tweet that caught Cruz’s eye came from a nearly brand new Twitter account, @Colin72856945:

Colin72856945, a “Retail Trader, Musician, Optimist. Creative Type”, apparently joined Twitter just last month, as noted in his pinned tweet: “I’ve been on twitter less than 1 day. This place is horrible[.]”
Indeed.
