Today I learned that Texas senators are powerless to do much of anything when their state goes to heck. If he ever came back from Mexico, how could we tell?
What, specifically, do you think he could do? Shovel snow? Fix water pipes?
He isn’t the Governor. He isn’t a mayor. He isn’t a member of the state legislature. His job is to vote on legislation in Washington.
If he left Texas and went to DC would that be equally bad, less bad or more bad than going to Mexico?
