    It's obnoxious on every level.
    It's obviously pandering to a certain audience.
    But I can't see it as being too harmful (beyond further tarnishing the international image of the U.S.) because it's so baldly preaching to the choir. I can't see anyone being swayed by the piece.

    Tries to connect Ted Cruz with the 2nd Amendment, and that with bacon. Ted is appealing to people with guns, and people who love bacon.
