If he was fleeing the cold/misery in Texas, he could have at least gone to Arizona, Las Vegas or Florida and kept his travel dollars in the US is my thought.

Just another silver spoon demonrat who never let a tragedy go to waste for the purpose of political gain.


I don't disagree but politics is a game of strategy & optics.

In the eyes of many, Beto will come out of this looking the same or maybe slightly better.
Cruz will come out of this not looking not so great.

Appearance and optics matter in 2021.
Toyota Avalon, whatever it's a Toyota sedan.
Lexus ES350, look at this hot shot rich dude and this fancy car.

Depends on who's looking.

Some may think Whyinthecornbreadhell did you pay a premium to have a Lexus badge on a Toyota Avalon?

I figure it’s the governor’s job more than a Senator’s job.

But I don’t know. I never heard Richard Shelby, Jeff Sessions, or Doug Jones during a Hurricane or Tornado catastrophe.

My personal thoughts.
Why would he not take the $3,000 or whatever he spent and spent that in the United States?
Tourism in Vegas got absolutely HAMMERED last year. If Vegas isn't your thing(understandable), I'm sure Arizona or Florida would have been happy to have seen thosa dollars.
He could have at least had a leg to sorta stand on.

Instead, it's become an internet meme. "Man crosses border to seek better life for family." eek


When I get ready to go on vacation I go where I want to go and Not where people think I should go....I’d be willing to bet Ted is the same way


I hear ya, however, you are not a sitting US Senator , wanta be President, who's state is in the midst of the largest natural disaster in their history.

Fire Cruz, and hire Beto the fake messican. If only Cruz was dishing out hot soup to the infirm and illegal aliens. This is what’s wrong in this country. People think some senator can change the natural disaster. Just look at what government does, it screws things up far more than fixes. All politicians should go to Mexico for 5 years. You will see this economy boom. Blame Abbott, he’s the one that needs everything plowed. He should of been on top of it. Now he has to be carried around like an Egyptian king. Like idiots think biden can fix covid overnight.

So y'all believe the people telling you that it's bad optics when they spent $80 million dollars trying to defeat him in the last election? Y'all are swallowing the hook, line and sinker getting gut hook on their constant fake outrage propaganda!! Where was all of the outrage from the same "bad optics" people when the riots were happening in their districts and states. If y'all haven't learned by now that democrats don't give a rats ass about "optics" they play to win at all costs just look at Swalwell porking a chinese spy and being on the impreach team and the intelligence committee and Feinstein's driver being a chinese spy, what happened to them??? Not a damn thing because they play to win not be mealy mouth 5 year olds worried that it may not "look" right by their opposition. Republicans and conservatives HAVE TO GROW A SPINE and shove it back at the democrats in spades!

Ted just joined a club. He should have seen this coming. He's supposed to be very smart. Tweets cut both ways.

Elliot Spitzer, Chris Christie, Larry Craig, Tony Fauci, Dr. Birx, Nancy Pelosi, Gavin Newsome, Gov. Mark Sanford.
Just a few that come to mind... R's and D's.

Mayor Steve Adler from Austin filmed a PSA about staying home for Covid's sake.
He filmed the spot from Cabo, where he was vacationing w/ family and friends.

No. Cruz should not resign. His first statement was a total joke though.

If you are busted, and presented with a choice between being a cheater or a liar, choose honesty, and
throw yourself on the mercy of the court. He ended up being both.

Sheila Jackson Lee was handing out free water in the cold the next day.
Is she smarter than Ted ?

I fail to see the issue with him escorting his family down. I fail to see the issue if he wanted to take a few days off period.

I didn't have an issue with him doing it, either, but apparently lots of people did. And, AOC managed to go to Texas and help give out food and the optics sure make her shine (much to my annoyance).
