Any Texan with dough seen skipping town, let alone a prominent republican politician, will be made notorious over such a thing.

We have been freezing here. Most of My friends Have had no running water. 400 k neighborhoods. The biggest And best hospital in town is without running water.

Cruz can’t be seen being political so he’s not going to assist?

Do you know what it’s like to spend three nights in an apartment in sub freezing weather with no husband and a baby?

That’s what we’re about to find out. The phot of Cruz skipping town will be juxtaposed on that right or wrong

He is tone deaf.

Disagree. . . .and yes, live here in Denton County. Hardly any power. freezing in my home, now we have to boil water to drink.

Small baby. . .yes, had that, too, 40-yrs ago when my son was born and we were in an old Quonset hut in the UK, no heat during their most cold winter in a 100yrs.

Oh. . .and why would anyone feel that a US Senator with no power or authority over the state government would do anything other than get in the way.

I despise Robert for his political posturing and would also despise if Cruz did the same.

I suspect most whining over Cruz and his 24-hr trip are jealous and demand he suffer as much as everyone else.

Does anyone on the left or media understand how federalism works, why we have state and local governments?

The dems and media blur the lines between the federal government to play into the grubby hands of dems and media. Convincing the sheep that the federal government runs all-—they don’t-—then when something happens that falls clearly within the purview of state government, the sheep cry that anyone in the federal government must do something, and if not doing anything like they are “expected” to, they should at least look like they are doing something.

Federal government/reps/senators just get in the way as they play politics.

But. . .the left and media like political smoke and mirrors and that isn’t helpful.

If the state needs federal help, they can ask for it. Until then, federal agencies, government, politicians stay out.
