Yesterday, Cruz "joked" that Beto O'Rourke should let Joe Kennedy drive when they stump together

Todd J. Gillman @toddgillman31m31 minutes ago

Yesterday, @TedCruz "joked" that @BetoORourke should let @joekennedy drive when they stump together in Texas -- because, you know, #Chappaquiddick. Beto and Amy O'Rourke picked up Joe and Lauren Kennedy at Corpus Christi airport--and put Joe behind the wheel heading to rally.

but couldn't resist making a vicious joke about another Kennedy. Cruz is a total douche and I hope Beto crushes him like a bug on a windshield.

Those two, by the way (Beto and Kennedy) are a couple of hot-looking guys.

And I mean it. I can smell the flop sweat from here.
