I wish I was in Cancun or Aruba instead of watching another 10' of snow falling.

Cruz requested police escort him from the airport cause people are so pissed at him.

Life of the detached elite he used to make fun of.

Sad.

His overnight bag is larger than my wife packs for a week vacation - what did he change clothes 10 times?

if you are upset Ted Cruz went to Mexico with his family then it's time you took a long look in the mirror. What you will see is what is wrong with American today - you.

Stop worrying about what others are doing and live your own freaking life. His going to Cancun had/has zero impact on your life.

As a taxpayer, I pay his salary and he took it to Mexico rather than spend it in the US during a pandemic when hospitality employment is at an all time low.

When he says 'America First' he chuckles inside at how stupid his voters are.

He and his family are entitled to vacation wherever the frick they want, 'taxpayer' wishes be damned.

People are just looking for a reason to criticize, whether it's justified or not. Had he stayed in Houston, passing out blankets or whatever, he'd be accused of pandering and looking for a photo op. This whole topic is bogus.

No chance he was just dropping them off. This makes a situation that looks bad look even worse with this excuse. If Cruz wants to get all the attention that he seeks from being outspoken and out front on issues he has to expect attention like this. He is one of the most visible members of congress not someone from the 4th district of southern Iowa that thought that he didn't think this situation would occur is baffling.

The real question should be who in the hell would ever vote for a democrat. The most corrupt bunch to ever inhabit the earth.

He would have been better served to just say, 'Yes, I'm taking my family for a short getaway. I'm blessed to be able to do so. However, I am in constant contact with authorities and my office to see to the needs of my constituents', or some other such blather. Take the criticism head on, and tell his critics 'So what?'

Because the majority of our country's tourist destinations are still shut down a year later. Maybe if these mayors and governors opened up, we can put these people back to work.

San Diego Congressman Duncan Hunter illegally spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on luxuries for his family. Trips, clothes, etc. He even charged thousands on his congressional expense card to play online video games while he was supposed to be working.

Found guilty with overwhelming evidence.

Trump Pardoned him.

Dont pretend you care about corruption.

There is a lot of middle ground to play in here. I am not saying that I care one way or another, but it is a dumb move politically.
