Ted Cruz Wants to Be America's Designated Driver
During the third Republican debate, the ten candidates started off the night by answering this question: what is your greatest weakness? While most of the candidates dodged the question completely or gave a lukewarm answer, Senator Ted Cruz let America know that he will take you home — literally.
In answering the question, Cruz said, "I'm too agreeable and easygoing. My biggest weakness is I'm a fighter. I'm passionate about what I believe in. I may not be the type of person you want to grab a beer with, but I will get you home."
Naturally, the Internet had a lot of fun with that statement on Twitter.
Ted Cruz is the guy who will drive you home and creepily smell your hair as you're getting out of the car #GOPDebate

Let Ted Cruz be your Uber, America. Give him 5 stars and let him gouge you when you're drunk in the rain.

Oh Senator Cruz, we're not sure if anyone in America would want you to take them home.
