This Ted Cruz attack ad is just a Trump tweet on a truck
In 2006 2016, Trump tweeted, "^3Why would the people of Texas support Ted Cruz when he has accomplished absolutely nothing for them. He is another all talk, no action pol!" A man in Texas, Antonio Arellano, has enlarged the tweet and put it on the side of a truck that he's driving around the state to remind voters what Trump used to pretend to think of Cruz, compared to what he pretends to think of Cruz now.
Via Washington Post:
So far, the truck has set up at the Dallas Cowboys season opener Sept. 9 and a concert featuring Beyonci(C) and Jay-Z at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Arellano said.
There have been few negative responses, he said, although one incident in Houston involved a man who pulled in front of the truck and suddenly stopped to block it. The truck drove around him, Arellano said.
Arellano started a GoFundMe page to fuel the effort after Trump announced the yet-to-be-confirmed Texas rally. Donations soared. Arellano was subsequently joined by David Hogg, a former student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., who got involved after catching wind of the image on Twitter.
