Texas Senator Ted Cruz seems to have a lot of issues related to airports.

First, it was the whole "flying to Cancun during a major winter storm" thing. Now, evidently, the infamous politician has pulled a Karen at a Montana airport.

According to TMZ, Cruz missed his flight to DC over the weekend - he had to be there for the confirmation hearing of the new Supreme Court Justice, Ketanji Brown.

Evidently, the Senator thought he deserved special treatment, becuase he got into a heated argument with airline staff over having his flight changed. He even reportedly pulled out a "Do you know who I am?!" during the argument.

See, the thing is, no, Ted Cruz, because the last time we checked most people don't know the names of senators from a state they're not from. In fact, a lot of people don't know the names of senators from the state they ARE from. Rest assured, the only reason anybody knows who YOU are is because you're a meme, and in your case that's not a good thing.

Apparently, things got so heated that an officer had to be called to diffuse the situation. In the end, Cruz did have his flight changed - which probably would have happened faster if he hadn't chosen to berate the employees.
