Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is cracking jokes about Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) after a book reported on a story about her following the Iowa caucuses.
NBC News correspondent Ali Vitali penned a book titled, “Electable: Why America Hasn’t Put a Woman in the White House… Yet,” where she details a conversation she had with Warren after she finished third place in the 2020 Iowa Caucus.
“Everyone comes up to me and says, ‘I would vote for you, if you had a penis,'” Warren said, according to Vitali’s book.
During the the annual Basque Fry in Gardnerville, Nevada, Cruz commented on the story.
“We need courage responding to crazy town. I don’t know if you saw it this week: Elizabeth Warren told reporters that a guy came up to her and said, ‘I would have voted for you if only you had a penis,'” Cruz said.
He added, “Now let me say two things about that. Number one: That story is a lie. Produce this fictional person ’cause this human being does not exist. That is not even 1/1,024 true.”
Cruz was seemingly referencing a DNA test that declared Warren was only 1/1,024th Native American.
He continued, “But number two: In today’s Democrat Party, how do we know she doesn’t? … How could you possibly know? ‘My name is Elizabeth, call me Bob, this is my beer.'”
