I'm not surprised at all the people here defending Fled Cruz. Many of you have been all in for years now, defending the indefensible is old hat for you. But to those of you still capable of intellectual honesty: aren't you tired of it? I'm tired just from watching y'all do it.

There is no shortage of reasons not to like Ted Cruz. This isn't really one and it's completely on brand for him. At worst, it's bad optics.

He's successfully turned trump sycophancy into a lucrative career , let him enjoy the spoils, jeez.

Can you blame him? Ted Cruz likes places that can "perform even basic functions of civilization, like having reliable electricity".



Lol, Mexico's infrastructure is a million times more fragile than ours. Once in a lifetime freak weather event and we lose power for a few days. It sucks and is annoying AF, but let's have some perspective.

Right? That's all you ever hear about is how good the tap water is for drinking in Mexico.

My parents also went to Mexico tonight - they live in a border town and went to stay with relatives.

Of course, they left because they hadn't had running water in their house in three days.
Finally, a lib who actually went to Mexico.
Most always threaten to leave, but none ever do.


For sure. My parents are huge liberals.

Mexico > Texas


This is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Mexico is largely a sh**hole with vastly inferior infrastructure. I hope your parents stay there. And why wouldn't they if it's so much better? Just don't drink their super reliable water!

I don't know when Ags started being pro poor leadership but this one's open and shut.
You don't leave your fellow countrymen in the middle of a disaster. He's a U.S. Senator representing Texas and his leadership is desperately needed at home and not in Mexico.
It's indefensible.

So you signed up today just to regurgitate the Democrat talking point.
"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

This is a really stupid post and troll attempt
Just par for the course. They get this kind of crap blasted out to them, and then run here thinking they finally have a "we got him!" thread.
They all showed up too.
Maybe we can use this thread to discuss Biden's townhall.

That will make them scurry off again.
Yep, it is so predictable. Within 1 hour of the latest talking point being blasted out, the same people show up to REEEEEEE about the target; and often one or more sock/new accounts will post as we've already seen here.

We call out lib politicians for their hypocrisy. I.e Pelosi getting haircut without mask while preaching the opposite and demanding peasants stay hone. Gavin Newsome having large indoor dinner parties (and lying and saying outdoor) while preaching the opposite and hurting businesses. If there were fires in California, or flooding, I wouldn't GAF about a US Senator from Cali taking a family vacation.

BTW...Still think Trump was a Russian agent? Lol

Yeah I agree, I'm just poking fun at Cruz, and using his own twitter comments against him, which is why I put it in quotes.

Could have been in another state and flying out to go on a planned family vacation. But yeah, no way he flew commercial out of Texas today right?

I have discussed how awful a look it was for both of those democrats. I personally despise Gavin newsom, especially.

But as usual, you just goaltend and play whataboutism.

Do you ever hold the people you're obsessed with accountable?

Biden is giving amnesty to probably more than 20 million illegal immigrants, most from Mexico, and inviting millions more to march towards our open border, just for votes. Can Texans not go vacation at Mexican beaches when it's cold in Texas now?

Well this sh** has been going on for quite some time and I'm sure he flies quite a bit. For the record, I think it's real, and I don't care. This is nothing like the blatant hypocrisy of Pelosi and Newsome and other heroes of the left. Or Obama telling us we need to make hard sacrifices for the environment and having the individual carbon footprint of a small town, living in a seaside mansion.

I agree, hypocrisy is ripe on both sides for everyone. Absolutely. Should be called out regardless.

But still, Jesus. Ted, really? Right now? Say it ain't so.

I'm obsessed with Ted Cruz? What is wrong with you get a grip. I'm just calling you out on your BS. No one would give a **** if a senator from Cali flew out on a family vacation during wildfires or mud slides.

Maybe lay off whatever it is you are on.

There are some who might not care but it's undoubtedly a terrible look for a leader to be seen as leaving their constituents in what could be considered their hour of greatest need.
Even if it's true that there is little he could do by remaining, the optics don't look good.

I agree, many people are stupid and shallow and care about such meaningless things. Where did he fly out of? Were airports down here open today? Serious question.

LOL, we have a President that was a blithering idiot pedo BEFORE being riddled with dementia and a VP that sucks wang to get ahead in her job and I'm supposed to worry about a US Senator flying somewhere?

Yeah...no.

Bad optics? Possibly. Something to worry about? No. Indicative of poor leadership? Maybe if you're a ****ing moron, sure. But, since I'm not, all I can do is laugh at the feigned indignance from people that voted for Biden and Harris.

Thought the same, but thats definitely his wife and elder daughter right there. No way this isn't his family.

Only question is if this was an older 2020 photo where they're off to somewhere not Cancun.
