Parkland school shooting survivor David Hogg and other activists are working to stop Texas Sen. Ted Cruz from winning reelection by raising thousands of dollars to purchase a mobile billboard that will feature some of President Trump’s scathing tweets about his former Republican rival.
Antonio Arellano, a Texas-based activist, was joined by Hogg and political activist Claude Taylor to launch the GoFundMe page, which seeks to raise the $6,000 needed for a billboard, The Washington Post reported.
In a description on the GoFundMe page, the billboard is intended to be used as a reminder of Trump’s words regarding Cruz during the heated 2016 Republican presidential primary. The hatchet has long since been buried between the two men, however, and last week Trump announced he would headline “a major rally” for Cruz in October. Democratic Rep. Beto O’Rourke is challenging Cruz in November for the Senate seat.
