Cruz/his campaign was hawking a photoshop poster, to raise cash, of Cruz, sans clothes, covered with tattoos.

His online store was selling it, but it didn't originate from the campaign. I'd be surprised if Ted gave his approval in advance.

‘”From [what] I understand [Cruz] asked his people if they were doing anything with the image I’d created and when they said no he asked why not,” Sabo told The Hill in an email.’
