This is Ted Cruz:
Things you probably know about Ted Cruz: He’s called gay marriage the “greatest threat to religion in American history,” while gladly accepting donations from power-gays Ian Reisner and Mati Weiderpass.
Oh, and marriage equality is also somehow the death of free speech.
Something you probably don’t know about Ted Cruz: he’s much more handsome as a cartoon.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Now Ted isn’t a bad looking guy per se — we’ll just end this sentence here.
But as a cartoon? Knockout!
The Cruz campaign recently put out this cartoon via their website of the presidential contender — get this — in a boxing ring waiting to punch the president. That’s some real New Yorker wit, ain’t it?
Here’s the cartoon:
Interesting.
Once again, Cruz:
Cartoon:
Cruz:
Cartoon:
Sorry Teddy, we’re just not seeing it.
But people have been quick to point out who the cartoon actually does resemble — none other than the winner of the 2015 Queerty Award for Entertainer of the Year, Nick Jonas.
For comparison:
And look, Nick has even played a boxer:
Back to the drawing board, Ted! Or better yet, just go home — nobody will mind.

This guy scares me more than a dozen Donald Trumps.

No amount of botox, filler and or injected testosterone is going to bridge reality and at this point, science fiction.

GROSS! Ted Cruz is a phucking JOKE!

The turkey neck is clearly missing. Be careful Senator Ted Cruz … Thanksgiving is closing in and Americans often don’t know the difference

Face it – you can’t make a Clark Kent out of a Ted Cruz.

Dream on Ted…

Every time Ted Cruz smiles I want to puke……I hope the republican part doesn’t choose him as their nominee, would be worse than picking Mit Romney.
on to more important matters: Nick Jonah looks delicious in that kick-boxer pose yum.
Margaret Penny Wood
Ted obviously is deluded about his appearance. He’s creepy and ugly.
Frankie Trice
Teddy looks gay; I have always thought he was a closet case, but he has painted himself into a corner and can never come out…
Alistair Wiseman
I don’t see the Cruz/Jonas connection. What the Cruz campaign is referring to in this artwork is Cruz’s recent challenge to Obama in the link below.

I want to know what mirror he was looking into or was the artist who did this intoxicated?

THAT’S CRUZ???? In what parallel universe would that be him? Definitely not in this space continuum…

Even cartoon Cruz is self absorbed. His tattoo (yea, right) is his own initial.

@Alistair Wiseman: Are you and Rafael “Ted” Cruz the same person? You both come off as extremist idiots.
Daveliam
That cartoon looks absolutely nothing like Nick Jonas.
It looks absolutely nothing like Ted Cruz, either, but it certainly doesn’t look like Nick Jonas.

What a tool, amid others, in the GOP toolbox.

how horrible

@Alistair Wiseman: sure, but Teddy could only manage mud wrestling. Remember when Cruz insulted Biden when Joe was occupied with burrying his second child? Ted Cruz is a weasel

This f*cking guy again. Between him and his oddly gay obsessed daddy they both make me want to hurl. Ill be so glad when both of them fade back into obscurity.

Everything about this ‘tard makes my skin crawl. He smiles as though he’s bearing down. Damn, how do we get him off of the stage?
robho3
Cruz is creepy looking- makes my skin crawl. He reminds me of a serial killing who has 30 bodies buried in his back yard.
Captain Obvious
Don’t care about the weird Jonas tie in but that comic makes no sense because Obama isn’t his rival. Obama served 2 terms already and is on his way out. He doesn’t need to pay Cruz any mind.
What is this comic supposed to mean?
Kangol
Ted Cruz is such a closet queen, like his formerly Castro-supporter nutbag father. Two creeps in conservative clothing, and both should stop banging among the hangers and just come out. Then they can both go to h3ll!
Alistair Wiseman
@Kangol:
Rafael Cruz eventually turned against Fidel Castro when he realized the revolutionary leader was a serious Marxist-Leninist who nationalized virtually every private business on the island and expropriated US. and other foreign-owned property.
How dare you call Fidel Castro a “nutbag”. It’s the social progressive Democrats who love those “misunderstood” dictators.
