No, Ted Cruz’s daughter doesn’t have TikTok: Woman pretends to be Caroline Cruz in hilarious parody!
A woman has gone viral on TikTok after pretending to be Ted Cruz’s daughter Caroline in a hilarious parody video.
Last week, Texas Senator Ted Cruz was heavily criticised online after he flew to Cancun, Mexico during the Texas snow crisis.
At the time, Joe Biden had just approved a state of emergency in the state as temperatures hit -18C and millions of people were left without water and electricity.
Upon his return to Texas, Cruz published a statement saying that he had planned the trip for his daughters, and jokes flooded social media that he was blaming his daughters for the holiday.
He later admitted that it was a mistake on his part after returning back home on Thursday. I started having second thoughts almost the moment I sat down on the plane, because on the one hand, all of us who are parents have a responsibility to take care of our kids, take care of our family. That s something Texans have been doing across the state, he said.
