Exactly what was Ted Cruz supposed to do? Just suffer in the cold like everyone else?

Promise people $2000 checks.

Then stall as long as possible.

Exactly!
There is an entire state government structure in Texas to manage the crisis and if they need additional support go to the federal government like FEMA. What’s Cruz going to do LOL!? People just like to create drama when there shouldn’t be any.

There wasn't anything for him to do. It was just terrible optics and the media will attack anyone who dares to look bad.

Cruz is basically controlled opposition anyway.

In any case, I don't blame him for wanting to go - I'm sure most people wish they had the means to as well. It was stupid though. He either should have stuck to it and explained why him being in state was pointless (he's a senator, not a snow plow driver) or he should have canceled it before ever making it to the airport.

Ted Cruz is a leader -- or supposed to be

when I was in the Army in places like Germany and Korea, most of the "line" officers froze right alongside us lowly enlisted and NCOs

instead Ted decided to act like he was a 5-star General , too good to freeze alongside the troops

he needs to resign TODAY

an 11 year old boy from Honduras FROZE to death in an unheated trailor ...

while Ted was playing golf in Cancun

This isn’t a fucking army dip shit. He is a politician what when you rather he do sit around and freeze to death as well. Hell no I would do the exact same thing if I was him only I would not have apologized.

why did Ted Cruz put a kid in a trailer?

As a show of "solidarity", YES!!!!

He was supposed to kneel before our new CCP overlords, like the Demonrats are doing.

Fixed

why did Trump put Mexican children and babies into cages down at the border ?

I don't like everything Ted Cruz does, but this is a nothing burger and I don't blame him one bit. I'd have done the same.

They cant blame Trump for so they blame Cruz? Biden is in the White House they should be blaming him.

How wonderful of you to be a pricksucker of the wealthy and their Senatorial whores. Suck a big ole Texass sized back of dicks

Cruz isn't in the army.

Where were the Texas elected officials? Why are they elected and paid, and given generous pensions, if Ted Cruz is expected to do their work?

Here is the Texas State Executive Branch:

The executive branch consists of the:

* Governor
* Lieutenant Governor
* Comptroller of Public Accounts
* Land Commissioner
* Attorney General
* Agriculture Commissioner
* the three-member Texas Railroad Commission
* the State Board of Education
* the Secretary of State

Where were the 31 STATE Senators?

Where are the 150 members of the Texas STATE House of Reprsentatives? 150 members, plus each have many members of staff.

There are 562,650 Texas state employees. Where were they? Not working? Is Ted Cruz supposed to do their jobs?

Did all of them get on twitter a few weeks back and castigate public figures for doing the same thing, dumbass?

If I were him I would have flown to Washington and raised a stink about the lack of global warming the liberals have denied the state of Texas.

He is an insurrectionist and karma is coming

lead by example.

You're so insecure and immature you have to resort to name calling?

Post your source about your claim of "public figures."

He will be implicated, along with others, and I want to see this board after all the facts come out.

peeps be jelly...

We get it Beto - you don't like Cruz.

He seems to have a problem with optics.


One second he's sucking a booger out of his nose on live TV, the next he's dancing in Cancun while his constituents freeze.


Pretty stupid Ted.

Tell you what, just do a search on Fled Cruz tweet about the Mayor of Austin going to Cabo during the pandemic. I think you have enough sense to do that. Also check out his castigation of California requiring assistance during the pandemic. I cannot help you if you are a fucking ignoramus.

He castigated Cali lawmakers for wanting assistance during the wildfires while their policy caused it. He admitted, a few days ago, he had no defense.

There are a HELL of a lot of people hating Cruz. He is a fucking slime ball

The Idiots think he should have gone down there and Chopped Firewood...lol Where's that Fake President Biden in all this, he should have declared a National Emergency and sent help down there but he Did Not.
