Tragically, the like was rescinded within an hour, but not before everyone took screenshots of it and started firing off jokes.

At least it was only still 9/11 on the West Coast, right? That's something Ted Cruz can feel good about!

"Perhaps we should have done something like this during the Indiana primary," he added.
