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.pic.twitter.com/GKLVXr04xc

@TedCruz Friday in Houston: "By the way, he had Joe Kennedy down here campaigning with him. And Joe Kennedy was driving him around. I have to admit, it may be the first time in history anyone’s ever asked a Kennedy to drive.” The crowd laughed and applauded per@RobertTGarrettShow this thread -
Sen. Ted Kennedy was the great uncle of

Beto called Cruz's comments "small....That just says everything you need to know about Senator Cruz." Kennedy said his Uncle Ted fought to expand health care, while Cruz forced a gov't shutdown to avoid expanding health care.

Odd that you changed the tweet completely to make it a hit on Ted Cruz:pic.twitter.com/5CSOx3bc9T

No, I took down that tweet because I realized I was mistaken. They weren't all passengers. Joe Kennedy was driving, and Facebook Live showed a reverse image that made it appear he was a passenger. Took me a while to flip the image to represent it accurately in a new tweet.
-
But your original tweet said Beto and his wife joked. Then your new tweet says Ted Cruz joked.
-
Yes, it turned out that O'Rourke wasn't joking -- he put Kennedy behind the wheel.
-
What has Cruz done that deserves defending??

O'Rourke/Kennedy 2020 or Kennedy/O'Rourke 2020

No, 2020 ticket will need a PoC to win. Hillary may have won the popular vote, but I think a different VP running mate would have gone a lot further. Especially with Trump calling Latinos horrible things.

Harris/O'Rourke has a nice ring

Except Beto will only be two years into his Senate term and he’s said he will serve the full term. He can run in 2028.

@tedcruz is a snake, a liar, a hypocrite and a crook. I can’t imagine why ANYONE would be voting for him! I can’t stand the sight of him and I wouldn’t believe a word he said if his tongue came notarized! I’m rooting for U@BetoORourke. Linda in Florida

Thank you mam!!!! Texas appreciates the good vibes. Keep sending it our way
-
Absolutely! I tweet for him all the time. I follow by! I wish I could vote for him! Texas must wake up. Beto’s the only one for the Senate! Cruz is a liar and a crook! Go Beto!
