Ted Cruz, you dunce, you Eddie Munster-looking nincompoop, it's time to log off

Time to Log Off is a weekly series documenting the many ways our political figures show their whole asses online.

Let's get one thing clear right off the bat: Texas senator and sedition enthusiast Ted Cruz is very bad at being very online. He tries, god help him. He really does. But he just sucks at it. Remember when a "staffer" liked a hardcore porn video from his official Twitter account? Of course you do. One doesn't easily forget the trauma of being forced to imagine what sort of erotica Ted enjoys. Or what about the time he posted a video of himself very earnestly saying the pledge of allegiance in a manner which in no way whatsoever made him look like a twerpy grade schooler? And who could forget the time he tried to dunk on some random T-shirt owner, but accidentally showed that he creep-searches his own name online? What I'm saying here is that the man is an embarrassment for the terminally online community.
