Ted said with complete confidence. No one spoke--they were in shock. He loved the attention that everyone was giving him. He smiled a bit, that smile hiding the fact that he was a despicable man. The Zodiac Killer. He received a standing ovation and he exited the stage. He loved the fact that he was adored by many.

Ted Cruz 2020.

As he walked back stage, a spider got caught on his suit sleeve. Scared, he swiped at his arm and screamed at a dog whistle pitch. The spider, who was still alive, yelled out at Ted.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!"

Startled, Ted stopped and stared at his sleeve. He saw the spider glaring at him.

"I'm sorry. You are?" Ted said, pitifully.

"I am the one and only Spiderus, and I expect respect."

Ted stared longingly at the creature. He thought that it was the most beautiful arachnid that he's ever seen.

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience, Mr. Spiderus. May I say, you are an extremely handsome spider." Said Ted.

Spiderus blushed. "Well thank you, human."

Ted smiled. "Please, call me Ted."
