Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) mocked Vice President Kamala Harris this week over her failed presidential campaign, saying that it was like the Fyre Festival.

Cruz made the remarks during the most recent episode of his “Verdict” podcast with co-host Ben Ferguson while talking about the disastrous campaign that Harris ran, including how her campaign ended up $20 million in debt.

“Kamala Harris ran the Fyre Festival of campaigns, and it points out that Trump’s campaign spent roughly $488 million, and Kamala spent more than a billion,” Cruz said. “So, she outspent Trump more than two-to-one, and Kamala campaign ended up $20 million in debt.”

The Fyre Festival is the name of a hyped festival that was supposed to take place in 2017 that ended up falling so far below what was expected that the term “Frye Festival” is now a meme for something that is an epic disaster.

“Where did that money go? Well, one of the things that it went to is they paid many of [the] ‘celebrities’ who supported her,” Cruz noted, adding that they were given “significant sums” of money.

“Look, I’m a fiscal conservative, damn it,” Cruz said. “If you want to be there and you believe in saving the country, stand up and save the country, and if not, get the hell out.”

“Like, what is it with these lefties who, ironically, they want to put socialists in office who make it impossible for people to earn a living, and yet they’re such capitalists that they’re like, show me the money to do it. I mean, there is an intense hypocrisy on this,” he added.

After she spent millions bribing celebrities to endorse her, Kamala Harris’s campaign is millions of dollars in debt.

This is going to deeply demoralize Democrat donors. It is outrageous that donors gave their hard-earned cash to enrich celebrities.https://t.co/Et7wlOPde5 pic.twitter.com/UhImgKVSAl
