“I have a young conservative in the middle of this mess who was not prepared for it. Slept in his car for warmth. Doesn’t have much food because he doesn’t listen to his older and wiser semi-prepper relative. When hearing about Cruz he said “what an (donkey)””
I think we’re saying the same thing regarding Cruz. I mean, he could say (or think) something like “It’s not my fault if people are unprepared for things going bad”. But those are MOST PEOPLE, whether he likes it or not, and if wants to represent them, he sure as hell shouldn’t have copped that attitude about them. Life doesn’t work that way generally, and certainly not for Republicans. If Cruz cannot even figure out to NOT take a trip to Mexico while people in his state are literally freezing to death, it’s difficult to figure out how the hell he ever got to where he is.
(and yes, we’d be BLASTING any Democrat who did the same, as they would also deserve the same treatment as Cruz)
I was disagreeing with your comment about most people here would say it was a bad idea. Seeing a lot of people that think it is fine.
As for my relative..I predict this will not change his behavior. He will think it can’t happen again and still not load up on supplies.
