US Sen. Ted Cruz was confronted by one of his constituents on April 3 and was asked to take a DNA test to prove he is human. Tammy Talpas read from a statement, explaining her seven pre-existing conditions, before asking Cruz for the proof.
“If you force me into a high-risk pool, you will either bankrupt me or kill me,” she said. “I take these threats of medical aggression personally and seriously, and I can assure you I’m not the only Texan who does. My question is: Will you pledge to submit to a DNA test to prove that you’re human?”
Cruz refused to answer the question and said he would not engage in insults. Credit: Jessica Clinton via Storyful
