My letter to Ted Cruz

Sir, I find your trip to Cancun very disappointing. One - that you cut the trip short based on fear of perception. Two - that you apologized to the radical left.
Never apologize to them - people of double standards are not worth apologizing to. Nancy Pelosi did not apologize for her nail salon visit during a lockdown. It will never be enough for them - they will always have you backpedaling and judge you against values they don't hold Democrats to.
We are pragmatic people, not people of optics like the left. You have no operational role on the ground. Would have been better for you to tell a reporter from the beach "I encourage any Texan who has a safe place to go where there is heat, power, and water and who is not involved in restoration on the ground to do so until this crisis is over. Meanwhile I've been in contact with authorities and have done X, Y, and Z to mobilize support and from here I'm well able to continue to push for relief while also keeping my family safe and unburdening the utility system."

That about sums it up. Every other politican goes and finds a safe place, or has access to things that majority of citizens don’t have. Only difference is they’re all ganging up on Cruz and other Republicans. Can’t bow down to them in this war. They don’t play by the rules so why should we

Frankie Ford would not want to see Cruz act this way

why do they always get to blame the republican for natural disasters? Katrina was Bush's fault, not Blanco's. Now the freeze is Abbot and Cruz' fault and not Biden's?

This is the problem with this country: political partisanship.
People can't say Cruz fricked up, Nancy fricked up, Trump fricked up, or Biden fricked up. They have to defend a member of the party like a little 8 y/o tattletale and say, "But... but... Timmy did it too!"
As long as that D or R beside someone's name is what you're really looking at, nothing will change. This country needs more independents who hold all their asses accountable.

Cruz going to Cancun doesn't bother me at all.

My roommate is a centrist liberal. She said she does not give one single frick that Ted Cruz went to Cancun. (No pics guys. Sue me.)

The problem we had with Nancy getting her hair done was the hypocrisy. She had just gone on a tirade about mask wearing and how thing need to stay closed then that comes out. She blames the salon owner who she no doubt strong armed into opening for her and says she didn’t know the rules (when she literally wrote the rules). The salon’s business was then destroyed for leaking the footage.
Ted wasn’t a hypocrite about going to Mexico and should not have apologized.
