Lamar White, Jr., founder and publisher of @bayoubrief, thinks he uncovered some sort of suspicious bot farm supporting Sen. Ted Cruz after he noticed numerous people tweeting the exact same thing this morning. Check it out:
At 2 in the morning, hundreds of Ted Cruz supporters all woke up to issue the same exact statement on Twitter. Nothing suspicious about this. Nope. These are all just proud, patriotic American citizens, all deep in the heart of Texas. pic.twitter.com/Sp4qWELhT5

And Josh McCall, a Dem running the GA-09, responded that the “bot farms are fighting back against @BetoORourke in Texas”:
So Bot farms are fighting back against @BetoORourke in Texas.
America is just a really strange place to live right now. There are so many people willing to deceive their way into power, by any means necessary, that it's like living in an old Sci Fi movie. #ThursdayThoughts https://t.co/PSAHVMJkPf

Who could be behind this they wondered?
Looks very similar to what happened on South African Twitter this week *sips tea* https://t.co/YVAjdBhm99

Or, and we’re just spitballing here, these are real Cruz supporters who clicked a link?
Or they clicked on this link? https://t.co/XCCv6hsprB

HAHAHAHAHA! Try it for yourself and join Cruz’s bot army!
I choose @tedcruz for #TXSen because unlike @betoorourke, I think refusing to stand for the national anthem is disrespectful to those who have sacrificed so much for America. ?????? #ChooseCruz #IStand

Busted! When you do click the link, it *is* the exact same text:
“I choose @tedcruz for #TXSen because unlike @betoorourke, I think refusing to stand for the national anthem is disrespectful to those who have sacrificed so much for America. ?????? #ChooseCruz #IStand”
Well, that was a rather short conspiracy theory.
