How such an intelligent man could make such a bonehead decision is beyond me. It's bad optics to be seen as an elitist that jetsets off to Cancun when millions of your supporters are without power, food, heat, and having to brave the cold and long lines for necessities. Just a Dumb decision that's cant be truly defended or excused.

Most of his supporters don't give a shite. They know that he is now a minority in the body in which he serves and cannot do anything unless cuck Schumer allows it. Frick optics. Why do you care?

Eric swalwell and the Democrats ties to China is a bigger story to me. This crap about Cruz was intentionally set by the media. They know about optics and the Democrats are looking bad right now.

After winning such a close re-election against Beto he himself had best give a frick. May not be so lucky next campaign.

Omg! A US Senator who cant do shite to fix the problem at hand, flew to a warm sunny spot! The outrage! Definitely a piece of shite for doing what most of us wish we could do!

Anyone buying what the media is selling at this point is borderline mentally deficient.

You're an idiot for consuming left wing propaganda media and worrying about what they say.

How many other Texans did something similar? Have you ever seen contra flow on interstates during hurricanes? Personally, I would not have left my property unattended with the likelihood of losing power but maybe he was ok with that. Bad optics? I guess. But I bet there were others that left for warmer places. But - he's a Republican.

Should it matter if Cruz took his family to Cancun. NO

Is this going to hurt Cruz who won an extremely narrow election in a State with changing demographics. YES

I expected Cruz to be smart enough to figure this out.

People who care most about “optics” of elected officials are the people who seem most happy with the idea of “handlers” of politicians running the country. Sadly, it appears, there’s a whole lot of such people. We are living their dream now.

Dude, Beto or whatever stooge your pals put up doesn't have a chance....unless we don't eliminate the cheating. If that's the case we can all watch it burn together.

After hundreds of posts the only reason anyone has given so far as to why he shouldn’t have flown to Cancun is “optics”.
