Just call him Nikita; Cancun Cruz slams his boot on the desk at senate hearing.

https://www.rawstory.com/watch-ted-cruz-slams-his-boot-on-the-desk-in-senate-hearing-with-fbi-director-wray/

U.S. Senator Ted Cruz “self-reported” he wears boots emblazoned with the “Come and Take It” motto every day to work, as he took one off and slammed it on the table during a hearing Thursday with FBI Director Chris Wray.


We know you are an idiot, Ted, no need to "self-report."

And explain to these Molon Labe morons that's exactly what Xerxes did to Sparta, and Santa Ana did to the Alamo.

Rafaelito Cruzchev! You've done it!

He is not "Ted", no matter what he wants to call himself. He is Edward Rafael Cruz (or maybe it's the other way round, I haven't seen his birth certificate); his father is Rafael Cruz, thus making him Rafaelito, a diminutive for a little, little man.

in those boots, or in any other footwear? Looks to me like the boy is getting a bit tubby. I have my doubts.
