Sen. Ted Cruz fell victim to a seemingly obvious social media hoax during Hurricane Hilary ... because he truly believed there was a shark swimming through Los Angeles' flooded streets.


The U.S. Senator from Texas quote tweeted an image of a shark cruising through what seemed like a flooded L.A. freeway, and added his own technical assessment ... "Holy crap."

Well, good ol' Ted took the bait, hook, line, and sinker ... he'd reposted a Tweet from Barstool's Dan Katz, who claimed the shark photo was taken by a friend of his driving along L.A.'s 405 freeway.

Problem is ... the image is actually edited, and it's popped up a bunch over the past decade, usually when hurricanes hit the U.S. -- with the initial posting coming back in 2011 when Hurricane Irene slammed Puerto Rico.

Never mind that sharks are salt-water creatures. Never mind that L.A. River is not deep enough for sharks anyhow.

Ted Cruz is quite possibility the stupid person there is. His gullibility level unbelivable.
 
This is not a HOAX

I llved in Australia for 2 years. Small sharks routinely came up canals and bit people
Not as odd as you may think

Bull sharks are known to travel great distances up fresh water streams...

Bull sharks can be found far inland on rivers.
They've been seen up to 700 miles inland in the Mississippi river.

Cruz is stupid ? Nothing new there. You have to be stupid just to be a repugnant.

You should probably do some research on Bull Sharks before flapping your gums.

While indeed somebody can be fooled by fake or miscaptioned photos, sharks have been observed swimming up the Mississippi for awhile and are frequently spotted in the Amazon. Most shark attacks occur in 6 to 10 feet of water but large sharks have been known to attack in 3 feet of water or less and small ones need only a meter of water. Maybe Cruz was a bit gullible. But certainly many of us have fallen for fake photos, memes, quotations, etc. as well. Not a big deal.

(Sharks also can survive for quite some time--some for years--in fresh water.)
 
The same guy who needed to go to Cancun while people were freezing? Oh say it isn't so.
