The ongoing feud between Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and comedian Trevor Noah continues on Twitter.

After Twitter announced a new feature to monitor potential cyber-bullying, Trevor Noah cracked a joke at Cruz's expense on The Daily Show.


Needless to say, Cruz was watching and did not enjoy what he saw.

Cruz responded with a somewhat confusing bit of shade, comparing Noah to Glenn Close's character in Fatal Attraction.

Noah, who has a little more experience when it comes to comedy, responded with a question referencing Cruz's continued fealty to his former rival Donald Trump.

Twitter couldn't help but eagerly watch the feuding factions, though it was worth remembering one of them is an entertainer and one is a Republican lawmaker.



Many wondered what Ted Cruz was thinking, attempting a battle of wits against a professional comedian.



Of course, Cruz's chances of winning a Twitter fight in the eyes of the public were always low.



Noah predictably scooped up his fair share of accolades for the burn.



The insults between these two public figures will likely continue, with Cruz likely coming out on the bottom of any exchange involving clever retorts.

Even MTG Is Demanding That MAGA Admit The Killing Of Alex Pretti Was Completely Unjustified

Former Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene continues to speak out against the MAGA movement that brought her to national prominence, this time calling on Republicans to condemn the killing of Alex Pretti by ICE agents in Minneapolis.

Calls for an investigation have intensified from across the political spectrum after analysis of multiple videos showed ICE officers removing a handgun from Pretti—a weapon that authorities said Pretti was permitted to carry but was not handling at the time—before fatally shooting him.
