Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) was cut off mid-speech during his remarks at Thursdays Faith & Freedom Coalitions annual conference in Washington D.C. and it was all caught on video. <\/p>\n
During his speech, thanking the conference attendees for their prayers and well wishes for the nation, Cruz was accidentally cut off by conference organizers before he was able to finish. <\/p>\n
What I want to say to the men and women here is two things, Cruz began. Number one thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you for your prayers, thank you for your passion, thank you for your time, thank you for your energy, thank you for speaking out and working to retake our nation. <\/p>\n
The audience clapped and cheered as Cruz continued, but at that point the senators microphone was muted and the master of ceremonies announced the next speaker, Virginia Galloway the Faith & Freedom Coalitions southern regional director welcoming her to the stage. <\/p>\n
Cruz half-shrugged as Galloway made her entrance onto the stage and walked off while mouthing thank you on his way out. <\/p>\n
On Twitter, Cruz was brutalized by users who disliked him and found glee in his embarrassing moment. <\/p>\n
Read some of Twitters more vociferous reactions and continue for the awkward video in its entirety below. <\/p>\n
