Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz couldn’t help but mock two protesters who jumped on the stage at a 2nd Amendment rally in New Hampshire Tuesday.
While Cruz was speaking, one man appeared and began addressing the crowd.

“What made everyone so weird and sad that they had to come out here,” one said as Cruz looked on, seemingly unsure about exactly what was happening.
“It’s just weird, you know, I mean, why is everyone so excited about guns,” he said.
“Sir, who are you?” Cruz responded. “Sir, who are you and what are you doing here? Are you a little bit confused?”
After denying being confused, the man was told by Cruz, “You’re welcome to be in the crowd but you’re not a part of this group.
“I understand that you’re very confused,” Cruz told him as he was escorted off the stage. The candidate then speculated the protester went to Yale.
Moments later, another man jumped up and approached Cruz.
“Of we’ve got another young man, he’s very confused,” Cruz said.
As the protester shouted in his face, Cruz grew tired of the antics. “Hey,” he said, “this is not your stage,” before letting out a laugh.
“Boy, it’s almost like the Bernie Sanders guys are scared. The Bernistas are out in force!”
