Things got unexpectedly steamy for Sen. Ted Cruz on Monday, when his official Twitter account was caught “liking” an X-rated porn video.
In the clip posted by a porn-video account called @SexuallPosts, a blond woman who vaguely resembles Cruz’s wife, Heidi, enthusiastically watches as two naked people have sex on a couch.
Cruz, a Republican from Texas, is known for his strong religious convictions and family values stance — and once even supported a ban on sex toys.
Cruz unliked the video after about an hour early Tuesday.
A call and email to Cruz’s spokesperson was not returned.

Washington (CNN)Texas Sen. Ted Cruz told reporters Tuesday it was a "staffing issue" that led to a pornographic video being "liked" by his Twitter account -- which has since been removed.
"It was a staffing issue and it was inadvertent, it was a mistake, it was not a deliberate action," Cruz said, according to The Washington Post. He added: "We're dealing with it internally but it was a mistake, it was not malicious conduct."
An aide to Cruz confirmed the comments to CNN, adding that there would be an internal effort to figure out who was responsible.
Cruz declined to comment when asked by CNN about the incident.

Never knew Ted had such patrician fetishes.
I'd follow this man into Hell.

Politicians are so dumb.
Literally all he has to do to turn this positive is say "Yeah i like porn, you do too"
BAM his massive balls make him the next Trump.
But no, he's eating the shame like a cuckold.

At its national convention last summer, the GOP passed a draft platform provision declaring, "Pornography, with its harmful effects, especially on children, has become a public health crisis that is destroying the life of millions."
And yet, as just about everyone with internet access is now aware, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a Republican presidential candidate in 2016, appeared to have liked a pornographic video on Twitter overnight. Of course, it's a little more complicated than that. We don't know for sure it was Cruz himself who did the "liking" -- as the senator explained this morning, "There are a number of people on the team that have access to the account and it appears that someone inadvertently hit the like button."

The "like" is now gone. But the memory will linger, yet another headline that somehow brought together the conservative lawmaker and some especially adult entertainment.
