houseandwhips.com – Ted Cruz has once again sparked speculations that he has become fatter but has he put on weight recently? No, he looks the same as always. He has never been a slim and fit person and he seemed to have gotten fatter about three years ago in 2021. Since then, Ted Cruz has often had to face body-shaming comments.
Ted Cruz entered politics as soon as he graduated from Princeton University and Harvard Law School, working as a policy advisor in the George W. Bush administration. Currently, he serves as the junior United States senator from Texas (he has held the position since 2013). He was the first Hispanic American to be elected to the U.S. Senate (he was elected in 2012). In 2018, he got reelected to the U.S. Senate in a very close race against Democratic candidate Beto O’Rourke.
Ted Cruz came a long way from when, in 2003, he was appointed to the office of Solicitor General of Texas, which he held till 2008, to running for president in 2015. He lost the Republican presidential nomination to Donald Trump but his political career is still going strong. He has a large social media presence and a considerable but controversial public profile. His fame or his notoriety (depending on who you are) has often led to him being the subject of weight discussions and the target of body-shaming comments from online bullies. Every time he says something and generates some sort of controversy, his weight and appearance come up.
Has Ted Cruz Gotten Fatter Lately?

Are you one of those people who think that Cruz has gained weight? If you think so, think again and search his older pictures from a few years back to compare those with the recent ones and find out if he has really undergone a change in his physique. If you do so, you will find out that there’s not much truth to the recent rumors that he has put on weight and you will realize that he has remained largely unchanged in terms of his physicality over the last four years. He has not actually gone through major change in his physique.
Ted Cruz doesn’t need to gain any more weight than he already has. As it is, he already has more weight that he carries than is healthy. He’s never been a slim and fit person. You cannot exactly miss that. If you think that there has been an increase in his weight, it’s because you have missed that and that can only be if you have not been keeping in touch with him and thus, you don’t know that he has looked that way for a while. I can see why people would think that he has put on weight. He’s fat but he’s been fat for a while now. He has certainly gotten bigger but it’s not recent. It’s been years since he piled on and kept it.

Cruz has been at the receiving end of many cruel body-shaming comments because of his weight many times over the last few years. It kind of got very bad for him in 2021 when he flew to Cancun, Mexico for a vacation when Texas, the state he represented, was battling a deadly once-in-a-century snowstorm and power outage. What Ted Cruz did was so utterly insensible and stupid and deserved harsh criticism but people need not have gone for his obese body which is what they did. They mocked his physicality. They tore him apart for his appearance.
Ted Cruz looks like he’s about to give birth with that belly. What is he eating in Washington between flirts and tweets to AOC.
Another commented on his fashion as well,
Ted Cruz not only destroyed Texas. He has ruined the blue jean industry. Someone stop him. Get rid of those jeans. He has developed a figure like Trump. Let him stay in Cancun.
At this point, the politician is very much used to being fat-shamed. He may have gotten used to being at that weight but it looks like people haven’t gotten used to his bigger appearance which happened about three years ago.
