Exactly. He needs to stay the eff out of the way, and if Abbott isn't getting what he needs from the federal government, then Cruz can help. Otherwise, go to Cancun and let the state and local politicians handle this.deddog said:Agreed. That's what he should have done, and at least cancelled his trip..zwhag2010 said:coconutED said:
What do you want him (a US Senator) to do?
He can do what corps of cadets has been doing... Volunteering to help. This grid issue is not on him but as a representative of our state he should be involved. Be there for constituents. Every politician should have travel insurance. You know full well what would happen on this board if it was a dem senator from CA going on a trip amid a state crisis
But let's face it, if he did help and volunteer - the same folks who are complaining he went to Cancun, will be complaining that he was hampering efforts while looking for a photo op. Some people are just forever toxic- there is no wining with them.
Ted Cruz flies to Cancun tonight Feb 17

I am sure some senators/representatives traveled while fires were raging in california. No one cared.zwhag2010 said:coconutED said:

Can't believe you trump guys are standing up for lyin ted after bashing him for over four years. There probably wasn't a whole lot he could go for his constituents at this time, but he still managed to make himself out to be a first class *******.

Cancelling the keystone pipeline destroyed thousands of livelihoods. Hidin Biden did that. I don't like Biden.Space-Tech said:So he made you believe that without him, policies would be implemented that destroy thousands of livelihoods. Got it.ruddyduck said:Space-Tech said:
Trump has successfully brainwashed you into believing that 50% of America is your enemy and want to destroy your way of life. And the only way to keep that from happening was to keep him in power.
OR...and stay with me here...we have our own f'ing eyes and brains and pay attention to the eo's and policies put forth by this administration (which were directly lied about during the campaign btw). policies that are currently destroying thousands of livelihoods. in other words, we pay attention to actions and not words. we don't need trump or any other politician to tell us what we can plainly see.
not many here give two f's about trump the man. what you don't understand is trump getting into office was a symptom of what we've witnessed through 8 years of o and now harris, i mean biden.
Notice I never used the word Trump.
Why can't you get over Trump? Your like a teenage girl that is all mad at other girls for getting the attention of a guy that went off to college, and no one is actually thinking about him but you. The only people constantly mentioning him are jilted liberals.
Let. It. Go.

Gestapo/NKVD should have caught him at the airport, no doubt he's fleeing the country after his sedition of questioning the elections in November.
Ted Cruz didn't bungle this for millions of texans that was ERCOT who a 1/3 of their board dont' even live in TExas and the CEO makes 800k...But yeah lets make the story ted cruz goes to Mexico. WGAS
18 pages and still none of the resident libs can explain what Cruz can accomplish in Washington concerning the Texas electric situation that he can't accomplish remotely.

Those people, who do not care nor know enough about politics to vote typically, voted the same as you. So in short, democrats NEED morons to vote in high numbers in order to win. And you guys came through. Congrats.esteban said:Smarter than someone who voted for Donald Trump twice. That's where.deddog said:

Cope.
Your side wants as many dumbasses as possible voting. Whether they be felons, 16-17 year olds, random ass morons who typically never vote, etc.
THAT should tell you something.

I'm fairly old, I've been voting almost entirely republican since 1976.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

I thought it was a "long planned family trip" that just happened to be during the snowstorm?
Now it's "kids got school off so I decided to chaperone the travel down"? Not to mention, his wife was on the flight too, and he brought a bag enough for a multi day trip.
Look, even Cruz knows this is really bad, otherwise he wouldn't have to lie about it. You guys can stop goalkeeping for him. Just own up to it being a mistake and a little tone-deaf to what is happening to his constituents, and we can all move on.

Lets face it, the areas most affected by this are the major cities which tend to run liberal. Cruz knows his powerbase resides in the small rural areas and in turn doesn't care about his "commie-socialist" constituents. After Trump mercilessly insulted him, his wife, and his family he crawled back like an abused dog to keep his seat at the table. After he survived re-election re realized as long as he bows down to Daddy Trump he'll have his Senate seat regardless if the agenda is actually conservative or good for Texans or Americans.
Trump has successfully brainwashed you into believing that 50% of America is your enemy and want to destroy your way of life. And the only way to keep that from happening was to keep him in power. Trump was bad for America. He's a New York huckster who made you believe that your success depended on his success, and as January 6th proved he was as best passive about things turning violent to stay that way.
So much hate.
