That now-infamous Ted Cruz Twitter porn like turned out to be prime comedic fodder. That can’t be helped. So it was only natural for comedian and late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel to lend his voice to the joke chorus.
Unfortunately, here’s what he came up with:
Well done @TedCruz using the power of "like" to illustrate the evils of porn #Weiner pic.twitter.com/SQDPh1cRTp

Beg your pardon, Jimmy?
Weiner was sexting underage girls with his kid in the bed next to him, but sure totally the same as liking a tweet. https://t.co/H5KHIKTohl

It’s not even close.
Kimmel has been doing his best lately to get in on those sweet social media embeds that Colbert has been enjoying for years.

But if nothing else, at least Kimmel’s in good company. CNN’s Chris Cillizza can’t seem to make a distinction between Cruz’s Twitter SNAFU and Democratic politicians’ sexual attraction to minors, either.

It gets better:

Cruz may be the butt of the jokes, but it’s Kimmel who’s the ass.
