Was this a funny coincidence, or did OOP change their name after they saw that Cruz had retweeted them?

They definitely changed their name.

That does seem the most likely

Says someone who I suspect is NOT a Chamaenerion angustifolium at all!

Either way, the Dolly poster is a legend. Anyone who gets a reply from Ted Cruz has the obligation to change their name thusly.

Damn he didn't have to remove it just because it was tiny

We dont know the reason(s), it was only stated when it was removed (after he was made aware of the blunder) but not why it was removed.

It wasn't him it was a pimple doctor in Cancun

Ted Cruz seems rather chill about being an online lolcow. I feel he did read it. I'm sure he's framed many of Internet Comment Etiquette's tweets too.

Right? Everything about Cruz's public life suggests to me that he has a massive humiliation fetish.

How does this moron keep stepping in it? Nobody likes you, stop acting like you're part of the masses.

Not to defend Ted Cruz but that account could’ve changed its display name after he retweeted it, but it’s still fun anyway.
