I hate that form of politics. Useless to me.
Abbot is worse.
Well said. Most people agree with you. I cannot handle partisan hacks of any party who let their own officials off the hook because they are of the same party . As I mentioned above I think the electric grid going down and Cruz trip will turn Texas blue
He knew full well what risk he was taking with bad press had he been discovered. Idiot. Was he going to Cancun for his daughters liver transplant?
No the other Democrats who are in elected office...what were they up to? Where were the Democrat congressmen from Texas and what were they doing?
And where was Cruz when he flew out from the USA...in DC or in Texas? It makes a bit of difference. Would Cruz had been criticized for remaining in DC...instead of flying to Texas, harrumphing and flailing his arms and generally getting in everyone’s way?
Just another Texas political dust devil...kicking up some crap!
I posted that because there was additional information. I also posted the 2021 schedule.
Texas has two US senators. Since Cruz is now satan incarnate, what has our savior, Cornyn, done for us during this event? TIA for your thoughtful response.
Right, that #3 in my book.
GOD, FAMILY, COUNTRY.
But evidently NANNY STATE GOVERNMENT is #1 or #2 in yours.
Ted was originally planning on coming back on Saturday.
Now that he has allowed himself to be bullied into returning, he should make the left regret it — by exposing the environmental extremism and proposing solutions.
If you can find any of them with worse optics than Ted, let me know. Until then it’s going to be pretty heavy lifting to defend him.

Finally s FR member comes up with the real causes why Texas is having these problems. It’s so obvious more than likely Cruz will bring it up
Really bad PR, however who let’s children dictate vacation plans?? My family hasn’t been on vacation since?? because of covid restrictions. He should you use his children as excuse and he should of cancelled. Service to your country costs you and your family something.
That’s a good question. And what about the House Reps?
Yes, this is a State Issue. It is also a constituent issue.
They are all about constituents when trying to get elected and trying to get the pork.
Biden declared Texas a state of Emergency
“This stunt is a career killer.”
You, my easily-triggered, cancel-culture embracing FRiend, are part of the problem. A big part of the problem.
Thanks. I’m still not sure what you guys think he could be doing here, he’s not the governor, and I imagine if he was doing something to help he’d be doing it by communications other than physical presence.
I believe in individualism and people not dependent on politicians to save us every time we have a problem. This outrage is by Cruz haters.
Biden declared an emergency on Sunday. FEMA is coordinating with Abbott.
What the left really want is for Cruz to be hanging out in a Tar paper shack with only a winter coat to show his solidarity with the folks, now if he were to freeze overnight and die in the process then he is a hero and martyr for all against Green Energy.
“You, my easily-triggered, cancel-culture embracing FRiend, are part of the problem. A big part of the problem.”
Not really - he always got my vote and will continue to do so (in November) as I FULLY UNDERSTAND the alternative.
20% or more of his voters are virtually CLUELESS regarding the Democrats....how does this stunt not kill Cruz with these people?
