Ted Cruz Jokes About Joe Biden, As Biden Grieves For His Son, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) made a blunt and ineffectively timed joke about Vice President Joe Biden on Wednesday, days after Biden's child Beau kicked the bucket from mind malignancy.
As indicated by Detroit News journalist Chad Livengood, Cruz was talking at a meeting of the Livingston County Republican Party outside Detroit when he ridiculed Biden.
"VP Joe Biden. You know the decent thing? You needn't bother with a punch line," Cruz said.
Biden's child Beau kicked the bucket on Saturday from cerebrum growth. The family is holding an open review on Thursday in Dover, Delaware. On Saturday, President Barack Obama is to convey a tribute at the burial service in Wilmington, Delaware.
Livengood said on Twitter that when he asked Cruz after the occasion for what good reason he kidded about Biden, given the timing, Cruz just "dismissed and strolled."
Cruz later apologized in a post on his Facebook page.
"It was a misstep to utilize an old joke about Joe Biden amid his season of pain, and I genuinely apologize," Cruz composed. "The loss of his child is unfortunate and shocking, and our requests to God are all that much with the Vice President and his crew."
