Texas Sen. Ted Cruz poked fun at reporters at a town hall event last week, saying he'd send a condolence note to reporters and editors that would have to check themselves into therapy if he were elected president.

"Let me start by saying if I'm elected, January 2017, I suppose the first thing I should do is send flowers and a note of condolences to all of the reporters and editors who've check themselves into therapy," said Cruz to radio host Jeff Kuhner at a WRKO town hall event.

Cruz also said he would start planning for a Cuban pig roast on the South Lawn of the White House on December 24, 2017.
