Remember George Bailey when the bank run happened as he was leaving for his honeymoon? He stayed. Fiction but what American’s expect of honorable men (or at least they used to).
God bless.
IT WAS HIS BANK! Is Cruz the ERCOT director? Is he the governor? Does he control the National Guard? Does he run a power company? Does he make decisions for Texas's electrical gird? What exactly could Cruz do? ANSWER - NOTHING OF REAL CONSEQUENCE.
