Ted Cruz 'Likes' Porn on Twitter, Breaks Internet

[Sanguine]

I asked this question elsewhere and still don't have an answer.  I use Twitter, have for years.  Is it even possible to view porn on Twitter?  Anyone have a friend who could answer that question?

[Silver Pines]

Da-umm!   I'd have to say that that was a knockout/checkmate.

 

@XenaLee

I know @jpsb will get back to me.

Hey, where have you been?  Missed you!

[Silver Pines]

How dare you impugn the orange god! You are vile! I should grab you in the pu$$y for this!

@bolobaby

I almost blew water all over my keyboard, lol.

@Sanguine

I just googled it---yes.  There's a porn hashtag on Twitter and a "Daily Porn Supply."

Just under the radar I guess...lol.

If someone deliberately posts a video of porn (a clip) on your twitter feed, then yes...it's possible.  It was a setup.... and an aide of Cruz mistakenly liked the video clip.  No biggie.  Just another excuse for the Cruz haters to point and laugh and act like the azholes that they truly are.

Yep!  A total nothing burger with cheese!

@XenaLee

We must have been posting on different threads.  Although I did take a few days off, so maybe I should retract the question, lol.

[driftdiver]

My vote is for hacked.
Question: If it's a retracted 'like' how does anyone know it was there?

Maybe some website is looking for hits.

I don't see Cruz as being this politically inept.

Probably whoever they have managing the account thought they were logged into their personal account.   I have a personal twitter that I never use and a business account and its easy to do.

Note - neither of them has ever 'liked' a porn feed.

I do manage to post in stealth mode sometimes....lol.   Maybe that's it!

It's very easy to like something unintentiionally on FB and Twitter both. Especially if you aren't playing close attention.

Oh, OK.  I've just never run across anything porn like on Twitter.  Thanks,

This isn't the Anthony seiner scandal the media says it is. If you use twitter you know how easy it is to accidentally like something.

This screenshot was posted on twitter on several pages earlier today and it appears to be a fake. I dropped the screenshot into Photoshop and inverted the colors > zoomed in and it appears that a new screenshot was pasted in on the right area. You can see a slight difference in the black (in the negative color) colors of the pasted in area. All the posts reference a screenshot, but not the original 'like' which is not there on his account.




Even if not a fake screenshot, twitter hackers hijack and mimic pages all the time. A mundane news article could actually be a script to dump porn on an account. it is always a challenge running any high profile pages to weed these out (or any page at that but high profile pages are generally a target).

Ted Cruz blames staffer for 'liking' porn tweet

Considering one of the reasons I have never had a 'smart phone' is that my digits are too large for the sort of precision that would permit me to accomplish anything without undoing all the stuff I inadvertently did. There is enough frustration in my world without deliberately dashing into harms' way.
I can see where accidentally doing something you didn't want to do could be easy, especially for someone who was trying to get rid of something they did not want to have present at all.

[GrouchoTex]

Maybe the staffer was watching porn to get a raise... :nometalk:

Well done

This is true, and it is a pretty funny story.
Cruz also wrote about it in his book.

[Silver Pines]

According to Dana Loesch, Cruz and his staff knew it was one of their own from the outset, and he's been joking about it to the press.  Only liberals and the media are trying to make something of it.

And some Trump supporters.  What do you think about that, @jpsb?

[GtHawk]

Maybe Heidi should take away his smartphone.

@Right_in_Virginia
Trump first, Okay not fair it's about Cruz, but really even through all the animosity, does anyone really believe that Cruz would be ignorant enough to do this? You guys may dislike him to the point of hate but you have to acknowledge he's no Weiner no matter how many lies have been told, now if someone said he was involved in a plot to kill a porn star..........

I was tempted to put up a picture to make my point, but I really don't want to be that guy so I will just put this up

[jpsb]

Or..... have a book written wherein he bragged about having had sex with his rich friends' wives.

Ted Cruz would be wise to stay off Twitter until this all dies down.

As I told @XenaLee @CatherineofAragon Ted should stay off twitter for a while.

Twitter only censors conservatives, porn is fine with Twitter.
