Please note - the AP has determined that the Tweet upon which I based this OP was fake and I fell for it. My only excuse is the case made about the extra space and my own viewing of the John Cornyn holiday Tweet in the blue section.

How did Ted Cruz respond to the latest mass shooting? By Tweeting* boilerplate that was copied, pasted and edited like a Mad Lib. We know this because there's a extra space after "horrific".

And the fact that he's* done it 12 times before.

*Most likely this is his social media person. We know he uses one because "he" once sent the exact same Tweet as John Cornyn.

Callous beyond words.

It brings to mind the story I once read about former VP Cheney saying that when he sent out condolence letters to families of slain soldiers they were signed with an electronic signature.

And it certainly is a poor reflection on Cruz' prayer life.

Why even have a person? Just use a bot. Sheesh. It's 2023!
The algorithm might call for common sense gun regulation supported by a majority of the American people. And then where would he be?
