Sesame Street was wrong to promote.

Meanwhile in Yemen…

So Ted is still trying to find an opponent he can overcome. Elmo would trounce him.

Vote Elmo for Florida State Senator!

Damn what did Elmo do to him

Icon pushing vaccine, sure thing, stir the pot ABC

How sad does your life have to be that you take an issue over a puppet?! A PUPPET!

cagematch

we are laying down your challenge. This is whimsical reporting but get to the heart. Right now young women are in trouble. Ohio 11year old being raped needing an abortion. RN’s are now talking about those coming into hospitals. REPORT ON THAT!

This made makes decisions about government issues and he wants to be president of the united states. Wow. Americans should demand and expect better.

My money's on Elmo, Cancun's a wimp!

Wow tedcruz is a giant baby, people seriously voted for that garbage truck. Didn’t he go to the Bahamas recently while Texas once again had power outages

Punching down is the most Ted Cruz move there is.

Icon? Get the hell out of here with this bs news story!

Ted Cruz is also a puppet with someone's hand up his backside operating his mouth so it's no great surprise this is the feud he chose .

Good. Elmo doesn’t need to be pushing medical treatments.

stop doing this ffs

Dem's are puppets to the pifzer lobbyist

Kids don’t need covid shots

Why would Elmo be telling kids what experimental drugs to put in their bodies? Especially since the vaccine has been proven to be so ineffective and children have almost no serious effects from Covid

No wonder Ted Cruz is doing such a lousy job in Washington he spending all of his time watching Sesame Street. And this is what we pay him to do?

nightmare on Sesame Street...Elmo is no longer suitable for the public...soon Elmo will become Elma...the horror continues...!

A battle between two dummies, my money's on Elmo!

Priorities

Wait till he sees Elmo's response! TedCruzSong 🤣

Elmo for governor…apparently anyone can be a governor…

Sooo.. are we talking about Sesame Street? Or about actual scientific data? What is news anyways now? Is this a comedy piece? Ohhh.. we can’t talk about the vaccines. Gotcha. And what is a ‘junior senator’ anyways?

He’s just trying to distract from his facist garbage… pretty sure Grover could take him in a fight anyways

At least Cruz is debating someone his own age in maturity.

Was that before or after his trip to the Bahamas?

If it's a battle of wits, my money's on Elmo.

The man is verbally attacking muppets!!! Muppets!!!

I can’t believe such a mo-ron who left us to literally freeze to death is now attacking Elmo. Is that what his supporters who voted for him wants him to do? Isn’t he supposed to be working for Texans? Obviously not.
