Ted Cruz clashed with airport staff.

Police were called to the check-in area at the airport to calm Ted Cruz down after he got into a fight with airline staff.

The Republican senator got into a heated argument with airline attendees after he missed the check-in window.

The user who posted the short video of the interaction said that Mr Cruz was harassing airline employees after missing his flight and that law enforcement had to be called when he wouldn't.

Cruz demanded to speak to a manager about a dozen times. The user said that every piece of s**t was the same in real life.

The uploader confirmed that Cruz said something along the lines of "don't you know who I am?" in the video.

Cruz has a facemask that says "Come and take it" in reference to the Second Amendment.

Scott Humphrey, a deputy director at the airport, said that a law enforcement officer was sent to help with the situation.

One of our Public Safety Officers was asked to assist with a passenger at the United ticket counter, which is not unusual.

The passenger missed the check-in window for his flight and re-booking options were limited due to Spring Break.

Cruz was ridiculed for the incident, with many comparing it to when he traveled to Mexico in February of last year, when Texans were dealing with power outages and freezing temperatures.

With school canceled for the week, our girls asked to go on a trip with their friends.

Wanting to be a good dad, I flew down with them last night and am flying back this afternoon.
