Says Texas was too cold. Flew to Cancun. Getting blown up now.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ted-cruz-airport-power-crisis-texas

Not a good look.

What’s the big deal? I would be somewhere warm right now if I could be.

Who fugging cares?
Are these idiots surprised ted makes enough for a vacation?

Good for him. Wish I was somewhere warm and sunny.

I thought it was a free country. He can go where he wants.

My thoughts too!

If he was the Governor, I'd be concerned, He's a US Senator!

If he stayed in DC would it be an issue??

Mike

Good for him. You think he booked that trip the same day he flew out?...🙄

Right on, hope he's doing body shots off a hot mexican cutie.

Cancun seems a reasonable place to be and he does not work for the electric company anyway.

Want to make my stance known, I’m on Teds side. Shots off a Mexican cutie for the win. And I don’t even drink.

So teds not going to help texas --------- scumbag

Jesus these people are stupid, even the smart ones.

Agree and I bet it comes back to haunt him for his 2022 re-election.

I hate to say it, but both Cruz and Abbott look like fools after lambasting California for their power outages last year and then they get caught with their pants down, wearing pink panties.

Watch where you throw stones, you might find out you live in a glass house.

OMG now he's throwing his kids under the bus ------------> scumbag

All the media has to do is put up the Headline - and to lefties it = Cruz Bad .

Yeah, I agree with Ted. Let them eat cake.

Optics not good. Would think he’d be more aware than that.

DF

If it were Pelosi we would be calling for her head on a pike. I think her head should still be on a pike after this, lol.

Cruz is target #1 for the left right now.

Dumbass bowed to the mob and returned.

One more example of why he’d have lost in 16.

He should have said “yep I only wish I could bring the whole state with me; sure would be nice if Pres Biden could send FEMA...”

Nope that’s still Trump

No I wouldn’t be; she got called out for breaking tyrannical restrictions she favored.

If Ted were violating something (which he is not) he’d be violating a proclamation he opposed. No hypocrisy in that.

Ted can't activate FEMA

Biden doesn't GAF, why should he?

I have no problem with his family going on a previously booked vacation. As a US Senator you can't head to Cancun when your state is in a state of emergency. Not smart.

I agree he is at the top of the hit list for liberals. He has an A game, he might want to dust it off.

I don't care where anyone goes.

If i had somewhere to go i would go as well.

Ted lost the opportunity of a once in 100 year event to bash Dementia Joe through the Media.

Ted is an excellent communicator, even if it was on all the Right media outlets.

Yep. They don’t have Trump to kick around so Ted is Target #1 now. Reckon they’re afraid he’ll run for POTUS!

“A Game”:

I’m not Pres but if I were I’d send in FEMA. Says a lot I gotta go to Mexico to get basic services like running water and reliable electricity!

Oh and did you hear the one about the NY governor who was investigated by the FBI because he did such an award winning job managing COVID in his state??

Meanwhile, that POS Gay Libertard Beto is calling out Gov Abbott for the Power Outage. Yep. The POS is running for Governor. Typical Libertard Commie Socialist. Never let a crisis go to waste. 😡

I could care less about optics. The man doesn't need anyone's permission to vacation with his kids whenever and wherever he wants regardless of the temperature in Texas at the moment. It's a total nothing-burger which the Left is trying to make into a something-burger.

Yep. Ole Cuomo killed THOUSANDS OF SENIORS in Nursing Homes, and they’re giving him AWARDS!

The Hypocrisy of the Left Knows No Bounds! 😡

Cruz is first and foremost a politician and, like his fellows, hold his constituency in contempt. A Texan that goes to Mexico to improve things, great statement about Texas.


mike r

Dude, why you yelling? Cruz gets paid to fix [bleep] in Texas, when your state is in crisis you don't go on vacation when you are that guy. At least that is the way I was raised. If you are hired to do a job you do it, even if it is inconvenient at times. As far as Cuomo, this is exactly the type of thing he would do and why I think Cruz stepped on his dick here.

Yes but that statement was playing defense not offense.

I'm glad Ted was able to take his kids on vacation to a warm local.

Doing it during the worst winter storm event in Texas since 1899 was a huge political faux pax.

By all means send the family with their friends but I wouldn't have advised he go.

Sorry man wasn’t meant to be a “yell font” it was meant to be a quote font as in a tweet or FB post from Cruz of what he ought to have said instead of coming back and letting the mob have a victory.

Seems like a tone deaf move that Pelosi would make.

It's not like he could do anything, but he should have known better.......You don't give your enemies ammo. Of course if it were a Democrat, it would be Okee Dokee,

Bad optics for sure. You can bet that this will be ammo for whoever runs against him, as a professional politician he showed a lack of smarts.

drover

What the hell was he supposed to do in TX, walk around wringing his hands, hoping for warm weather and water? These are people who just can't stand the predicament in which they find themselves and he is a whipping boy.
Besides all that, its a state issue.

Ted would have done better to keep his family there in Texas suffering. That would make it all better for the rest of the suffering people.

Should have stayed. Nothing he can do to help Texas with this, if he did they’d say he was grandstanding.

I see nothing wrong with Cruz going on a vacation. Get a grip people. Maybe we all should turn off the heat and lights in our homes in support of those who are without same in texas. Who's 1st?

Bad move, bad timing. Not smart at all.

i am ignorant on what he can and cant do but isnt it the state governors job to run the state
i am sure he can assist in federal help but thats going to be done thru the phone which they do have in mexico....
seems to me the state officials are the ones in charge of this issue and not cruz

Well said

^^^Look at the weak minded soak it all up. ^^^

If Ted Cruz stayed here that would accomplish what? Hell, if I had the peso's I'd fly my frozen azz somewhere warm, too.

Oh, WHERE'S FEMA??? JOE BIDEN HATES MEXICANS!!!!

I remember a couple of instances where my wife and kids went on vacation and I had to stay back at the company to help get a late job completed and shipped, due to last minute problems. Cruz did step on his Dick and more so because he's the first to throw stones at everyone else for doing the same thing. Just another POS politician. What meaningful plans has Cruz proposed for fixing SS, healthcare, immigration, education costs, infrastructure? He's just another loud mouth attention whore. Same as AOC, just playing for the other team.

I swear republicans look for ways to lose elections and I'm a lifelong registered republican.

Proving he’s the dickhead everyone outside of Texas knew he was.

Cancun is 300 miles closer to me than El Paso.

Why in the world are y'all picking on a Conservative Texas Republican when Biden is the one doing nothing to help Texas at a Federal level.

That's like shooting your neighbor after house got robbed because you are afraid to confront the thief.

Biden is failing Texas in a hugh way.

Keep your eye on the ball...

FEMA and Biden are Racists...

Turn off the damn TV... and think for yourself.

And in an enemy nation.

What, the man can't eat his boogers in peace in the Yucatan?

Saad!!

Mexico didn't steal my election.

He's got a new name now, Cancun Cruz.

It's an hour and 15 minutes from his house.

If true, what a leader he is. [bleep] clown

Appropriate, a drunkard speaking of weakness and soaking up.

Laffin at the fool.

OK, COVTARD.

Vote the dirt bag out of office

But...but...it's the number one news story in the World right now!

According to the numbers of covid and it’s new mutations you and your sock puppet are looking really stupid about now.

Which ain’t much of a stretch for brain damaged drunkard.

You first.

looks like ted was pretty smart. sounds like texas sucks about now. head for zee hills.

Yep. ABC Commie Fake News Evening Broadcast spent as much time on Cruz’s Vacation story as they did the Major Power Outages in Texas.

Meanwhile, crickets from Hiden Biden and The DemoRat’s on the disaster.

Hell, they’d have to shoot ole Creepy Uncle Joe up with one of those Debate Special drug cocktails just to explain to the stupid old Fuqk where TX is.

Nothing he could have done!

Cruz is now saying he was just flying down with his girls and returning immediately. Turns out his return was for Saturday and at 6:00am this morning he worked on finding an earlier flight, after he started to get wind of the fall out. Typical politician, lie until you get caught.

We need some better quality in the Republican party. I'm tired of holding my nose when I vote.

The girls need supervision in Mexico. Crime is institutional in Mexico.

I remember working at policing for 2010 Gulf oil spill. All Governor Jindal and Barack did when they came to Grand Isle was disrupt things. I was asked but refused the honor of guarding them.

I have no problem with Ted going anywhere! Those that do are green with envy, like little Grinchs!

Exactly

Meanwhile John Cornyn is telling Joe Biden a bedtime story.

Y'all is just silly.

I'd hafta say that about those that voted for him.

I didn’t know he could fix powerlines. Give me a phuqqin break.

You're right, there's nothing he could do. Just like if someone you know is really sick and dying. There's nothing you can do but you're still there to offer them comfort and support.

Yeah I should be scared to death just like your geriatric ass.

Alcohol kills covid hear tell so your drunkard sot ass should be reasonably safe.

You’re still looking f’kn dumb.

Same thing with the Joplin Tornado that killed 160+ and wiped out a mile x 9 mile path through a metro area. People were here from everywhere. Tractors. Trucks. Trailers. Moving peoples salvageable belongs to safety. Clearing fallen trees. Chainsaw crews everywhere. Obama shows up and puts everything on lockdown. Can’t travel through town while he was parading around for the camera crews.

Like the dimocraps were for our economy before Trump showed up with his magic wand, huh?

I could swear i just saw him live on Hannity. Hummm.

Who gives a [bleep]

Thank you.

I sense animosity in your Jewish tone.

OK, COVTARD.

Old Toot.

Apparently.

LOL

If he is paying for the trip with his own money why does it matter. You guys go where you want when you feel like it. Hell if I could afford a trip I would be doing the same thing.

It was all for for the kids (his daughters)

Didn't know he owned a power company and needed to stay home to run it. Took a planed vacation and what's the issue? Left will continue to attack for any and every reason.

Just like every other fuggin’ dummy working in DC. Completely detached from how their constituents live. And frankly don’t GAF as long as they get theirs. It’s disgusting, and systemic throughout all realms of the political spectrum.

A trip to Cancun out of your budget? You stupid fuggers take the leftists bait hook line and sinker. Cuomo killed 10k+ old folks, but Ted Cruz got on an airplane.

Yep. And they gave ole Killer Cuomo an award. 😡

Who cares? Just another attempt to distract from the crimes of the far left Dems.

so Ted goes to Mexico and liberals are freaking out....

meanwhile thousands and thousands of Mexicans are now crossing the border... and with liberals they're cheering...and having parades...

Ironic, ain't it?!

If this had happened on Trump's watch, he'd have already been on the ground in Austin days ago.

Once the bish-cuck, spinned his latest move because... family.

I could be on a plane to Cancun in the morning if I wanted to. If I was an elected representative and my state was experiencing a natural disaster across it’s entirety, I’d probably push that trip aside and let the people who got me elected know that I was doing everything I could to help. If for no reason other than it’s a really bad look. Which is all politicians care about anyways. And always will as long as the tax cattle line up around the block to pay them to fugg them over at every turn.

Sad. The MSM still controls most of you.

Psssst, you might want to pay more tension yourself.

You are from TX, right
Ted is YOUR Senator, right

Then YOU should know that he is not up for re-election until 2024

Bull Schit
Trump and all of his supporters (of which you are not) are still target #1.

The Old Toot crew

This is all a distraction from the fact that Ted tried to have AOC murdered yet she is still here. He always seems to have the best of intentions but the brass ring continues to be just out of his grasp. Here's hoping he ups his game.

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/539502-on-the-trail-the-political-perils-of-snowmageddon

Open borders,right??
Anything to make a Conservative look bad,and take heat off the left.

I have no doubt whatever he can accomplish from TX he can do the same from Cancun. Thing is panzy ass's get butt hurt when they see others heading for a good time.

Just another case of the leftist news organizations putting their spin on a story designed to make a conservative look bad...........look how poor Texans are suffering from being cold and hungry, while the rich are enjoying all the luxuries of life. Typical Communist propaganda.

The same Cruz that has stepped up to the podium countless times complaining when the Government helps other states with natural disasters.

Of course he couldn't be shown on the podium begging for help for HIS state... so he went on vacation instead.


Thats how much he loves his State.

.

I agree completely. Same reason injured players are sitting on the bench when the team plays. Be there to offer support in any way possible.

Holy fuggin bitches!
You bunch of whiners fall for the same shixt from the media.
Fugg the whiners. Cruz can go on vacation when he wants. It isn’t like he’s going to cuddle up to Dementia Joe and Horizontal Harris to ask for FEMA help.
Besides that, how the fugg is he supposed to fix the energy disaster the Libs have bestowed upon the nation.
Stop letting the media lead you around by the nose.

You should read up about that...

You really think Texas is going through this because some windmills froze?
Im sorry to inform you it was good ol carbon based energy production that failed..

Basic incompetence and Greed from Republicans running the state for decades.
.

Nah, they are just keeping tabs on the opposition. LOL

I don't know about you, but my investments have been going up since 2008. That's why I'm comfortably retired at 61. How about you?

The MSM is going to make political hay with anything they can scrap up, real, or fake.

Silly libs.

He could've come out with something official along the lines of:

"I was on a hunt to see if FEMA overshot it's target and wound up south of the border"

Otherwise just tell em all to F off

I don't get it. ?? Why can't Ted go to Mexico?

All the Mexicans are coming here with no repercussions or criticism.
