If Ted Cruz went to Cancun while Texans suffered,

[duforsure]

Its going to be interesting how he'll lie his way out of this now. Abbott is publicly making a fool of himself lying like he is blaming green energy as the cause of this.

[mucifer]

1. when people are so corrupted by power they think they are infallible. I hope

most Texans will pay attention and that they can see past their goal of "owning the libs".

[duforsure]

2. I agree!

Some hard core republicans I know are finished with Abbott and Cruz now, and really upset this was allowed to happen from not making energy companies winterize like they were suggested they do after the 2011 blackouts were investigated. ECOT has no power to demand they winterize.

19. Yeah, after watching the news, I really feel like a dumb, fukin' lib'tard.

[Skittles]

3. sociopath

would not understand what he did wrong

[BlancheSplanchnik]

17. Oh, sociopaths know...they just do it anyway

And make sure to hide the evidence. They know.

[Takket]

4. You would think even someone as sick and evil

As Cruz would appreciate how bad this would look and cancel, and stay home to help in any way he could.

Clearly I overestimated him.

This should be on ever TV in Texas for the next election.

5. Rupert Murdoch.....

.....won't report on this in any of his media outlets unless he wants to replace this idiot with a more extremist idiot.

6. Has this

been conclusively proven? I have no idea when those tweet photos were taken so I am a bit suspicious. As much as I can't stand Cruz, I have a hard time believing he would split at this point with his family in tow.

[Bettie]

7. Right, because Ted Cruz is so ethical?

and cares so much about his constituents?

Nah, it could easily be him, he really is that awful.

[elephant hunter]

8. Why...

... what is there about this man that makes this hard to believe? Would you find pics of him delivering food to people who lost their jobs because of covid in his personal vehicle more believable? Now honestly, which scenario seems more in Ted Cruz' character?

[BeerBarrelPolka]

9. I explained

I explained why in my post. "I have no idea when those tweet photos were taken so I am a bit suspicious." That's all. No need for pontificating.

[Vinca]

10. Why would someone take a photo of a random person in the aisle of a plane?

Unless Cruz has an identical twin somewhere, that's Cruz.

[BeerBarrelPolka]

11. At least

to me, there's no question that's Ted Cruz. My question is, when was that picture taken?

[atreides1]

16. It's Cruz

But if you look closely...in that photo he doesn't have a beard...

[BeerBarrelPolka]

18. Yes

I 100% believe it's Cruz and always have. I was just asking when the picture was taken.

12. I found this tweet, says multiple people had confirmed him on flight.

13. The excuse will be "I had non-refundable tickets"!

[KewlKat]

14. Confirmed he went with family

15. Cool

Thanks for confirming. He's a dirt bag, that's for sure.

[tanyev]

20. He's not worried about coming home to broken water pipes in his own house?

Good luck with that, Senator.
