Ted Cruz Jokes About Cancun Trip at CPAC

Sen. Ted Cruz on Friday joked about his controversial trip to Cancun and bellowed “Freedom!” in a homage to “Braveheart” during a speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference.

The Texas Republican’s speech began with a joke about his travel to Mexico last week after his constituents lost heat and electricity due to frigid temperatures impacting energy production.

“God bless CPAC,” the Texas senator began, “I’ve gotta say, Orlando is awesome. It’s not as nice as Cancun, but it’s nice.”

The remark was met with laughs and gasps from the crowd.

The CPAC event, which was moved from Washington, DC, to Orlando, Fla., due to coronavirus restrictions, kicked off Friday morning with remarks from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. (Read more from “Ted Cruz Jokes About Cancun Trip at CPAC” HERE)
