Sen. Ted Cruz poked fun at former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton for a new post debuting a baseball hat being sold by her PAC that says ‘But Her Emails.’ 

‘This is just sad,’ the Texas Republican tweeted Friday, sharing Clinton’s post that includes a vintage picture of her sporting the fresh hat. 

The special edition hat, which Clinton said was ‘just in time for Galentine’s Day,’ references a popular phrase used by Democrats to relay their frustrations that the former secretary of State’s email scandal likely tanked her 2016 presidential bid – giving former President Donald Trump the keys to the White House.  

This week Trump was in the news again for improperly carting off 15 boxes of White House documents and other items to his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. 

In addition, New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman, who is working on a Trump book, said that White House residence staff would find toilets clogged with wads of printed paper. 

Former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton debuted a baseball hat Friday that was being sold by her PAC that read, ‘But Her Emails’

‘As I was reporting out this book, I learned that staff in White House residence would periodically find the toilet clogged,’ Haberman said on CNN. ‘The engineer would have to come and fix it.’

‘And what the engineer would find would be wads of clumped up wet, printed paper – meaning it was not toilet paper,’ Haberman continued. ‘It was either notes or some other piece of paper that they believe he had thrown down the toilet.’

During his tenure, Trump would sometimes riff about toilets that didn’t have enough water pressure.  

In her Instagram and Twitter posts about the hat – which is being sold by her Onward Together PAC – Clinton referenced the Trump toilet paper story.   

It’s being sold for $30.  

Clinton’s scandal revolved around her using a private email account to do government business while serving as secretary of State. 

In Trump’s case the National Archives and Records Administration has taken the documents back and is having the Department of Justice look into the matter. 

Congress is also opening an investigation into Trump’s handling of the documents, which The Washington Post reported Thursday night contained some classified material.

Clinton’s use of a private server opened her up to similar scrutiny, but an FBI investigation found no criminal wrongdoing. 

The FBI’s announcement saying the bureau was reopening the emails investigation just days before the 2016 election – thanks to Clinton messages found on former Rep. Anthony Weiner’s computer – potentially tilted the election to Trump. 

Weiner was the former husband of Clinton’s top aide, Huma Abedin.    

CNBC reported Thursday that Clinton will speak at next week’s New York State Democratic Party Convention. 

Both she and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, are trying to reassert themselves in politics before the November midterm elections, with hope they can boost the Democrats’ dire prespects. 

The former Demoratic nominee has closed the door on a third presidential run. 

However, Dick Morris, a former adviser to Bill Clinton, tried recently to pry it open saying there’s a ‘good chance’ Hillary Clinton would jump in the 2024 race if Biden looked weak. 

Cruz tweeted about that too

‘Panicked Dems are floating Hillary 2024 rumors. Seems a good time to remind ourselves just how bad an idea that is,’ he said, sharing a video of a Clinton look-alike bashing in a computer. 

Cruz also tweeted Friday that it would be a 'bad' idea for the Democrats to choose Clinton as the nominee again in 2024, sharing a video where a look-alike of Clinton bashes in a computer
