It’s 2017and former reality star Donald Trump is POTUS, so naturally a Twitter beef with a U.S. Senator and a sports media outlet is par for the course. Deadspin wanted proof of Ted Cruz playing basketball at his newly formed congressional basketball game, so they turned to the Internet for help with this tweet:

Ted Cruz (probably an intern) saw the tweet and responded with a funny picture of Duke serial tripper, Grayson Allen:

This was a pretty funny response as Grayson Allen and Ted Cruz look like father and son. Deadspin wasn’t feeling it and clapped back with this tweet.
Go eat shit.

It’s not the best look for Deadspin to get salty after stirring the pot. It was a funny response, despite of what you may think of Cruz’s political views.
