Last I checked, the TX Governor is in charge of handling emergencies of the type currently afflicting TX.
“Can people stop bashing him already now that the man has spoken?”
All you have to do is speak, regardless of how flimsy or stupid it is, and the bashing stops?
I am always swayed by men who use their children to make public statements.
AOC gave her reply already. You don’t give your enemies the ammo-get it?
Audio: Here’s Sen. Cruz Two Days Before Getting On A Plane To Cancun, Encouraging Texans To Stay Home
Nothing to apologize for, Ted!
I guess he can try to spin it and hurry back, but he can’t recover from this screw-up, that simple. I’m actually much more worried about him bringing down the entire Texas GOP (and thereby handing the state to the Democrats), his move was THAT STUPID.
Given the cold weather this is an excellent time to take a vacation somewhere south.
Smart — never apologize.
Biden could be eating breakfast sausage made from aborted babies every morning and the press wouldn’t say a thing.
To all posters who think that Cruz should be in Texas, I ask “Doing what?”
- Abbot is in charge in Texas - is Cruz supposed to stand around and watch Abbot?
- Should Cruz stand on the northern border of Texas and raise his hands and command the storm stay away? (Didn’t Zero try this with the rising oceans?)
- Should Cruz take a blowtorch and thaw out windmills?
- Shovel snow off the solar panels?
I’m trying here ... any reasonable suggestions?
I’m cool with it, Ted. Only I’d have stayed with my daughters.
I don’t think he needs to be bashed—or really that any excuse is needed.
But I don’t think the parental “Don’t blame me, I was just indulging every whim of privileged offspring by taking them on an international vacation trip because they asked me to” response is really much of an excuse. Makes him sound like an overindulgent Dad IMO.
Sure, Ted.
Whatever you say.
Ted should have just stayed there and told everybody to “F Off!”
Hey Chris. How ya doin?
Fine Ted. And you?
to get to the bottom of what happened in Texas. VIA Cancun:-)
Go Ted. Stay conservative and stick with Trumpers. You will be fine.
