A giant sticker of Ted Cruz holding Greg Abbott's pregnant belly appears in San Antonio

A massive sticker of U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz holding the belly of a very pregnant Gov. Greg Abbott has popped up on the side of an abandoned building in San Antonio.

In the image, Abbott is wearing a "MAGA" shirt, which is lifted to reveal his pregnant belly, while Cruz gently holds the governor with his left hand. A figure of Jesus holding a gold semiautomatic rifle hovers over the two politicians, who are made to seem like a couple in the sticker. The image also includes the acronym "WWJD," apparently for the popular phrase "What Would Jesus Do?"

Another symbol depicted in the sticky material is a tattoo on Cruz’s arm that reads “Proud Boy,” presumably in reference to the far-right extremist group, the Proud Boys.
