As long as Texans are dumb enough to vote for this asshole again and again, he does not need to worry.
And they are, which is so fucking frustrating. I will never not be salty about Colin Allred losing to him. I really thought they’d be irate over him fleeing Snowpocalypse and Texans actively dying INSIDE their homes in 2021.
But no, he won the fucking popular vote. Again.
Also, as someone who moved from Texas to Cali: Fuck off Fled Cruz we don’t fucking want you or your ilk in this state.
Also, also, I find it extremely funny that he’s leaving Texas ahead of the winter storm again, and I’m heading back to Texas tomorrow to surprise a friend for her birthday. I wish I wasnt living through Snowmaggeden 2: Electric Boogaloo to be quite honest.
Raphael Cruz is a living embodiment of the power of having an R beside their name.
There are plenty of Texans who vote left or can be persuaded to as well. I’ve learned recently that Texas politics are way more nuanced than I realized. The good Texans that want to work together should be invited into the coalition.
It is a lack of popular reform candidates that loses. The dems run as republican light, not champion of workers. Nothing will change their strategy either they need to be forced out of the party but it is too late with elections being rigged.
They actually think that though.
That’s what he does. He runs home when the cold comes.
I still don’t understand why people call him Ted…
His name is Raphael, and always was up until he needed to trick white supremacists into thinking he was white too
And he’s Canadian.
Raphael is too pretty a name to be wasted on a sack of shit like him.
Calling him a sack of shit is an insult to shit.
Honestly yeah. If my dog’s shit was on the rail, and Cruz was on another rail, I’d redirect the trolley to hit Cruz to save my dog’s excrement.
LOL
Rafledael?
Canada?
Oh shit, I made the mistake of thinking his name suggested his cursed origin.
Sonofabitch.
Welp, good luck Texans.
Your grid is going down again.
Ah yes the yearly service interruptions brought to you by the superior free market.
What is wrong with a company spiking the price of electricity by 4,000%? Don’t like it just switch to another company that will do the same thing. Choice is wonderful.
The last time
hellTexas froze over Centerpoint Energy decided to socialize their losses to all of their customers, including those not in Texas. I live in MN and I had to pay for their stupidity. And what other company? Lucky you getting a choice which company fucks you over.You second college class in MacroEcon, or an AP Macro Econ course… generally goes over how cartels are bad, and the government tends to run utilities because if they don’t, you get the exact situation that Texas has.
Damn renewable energy! Thank god dynamic pricing will keep energy companies going, those 10k dollar bills for one week after the grid mostly fails because they declined to winterize their infrstructure blessedly help repair the grid! (Or some shit, what are we going with on this again?)
Hope you all have automatic withdrawala on your accounts still, suckers. /s
The Texas power grid doesn’t fail - it functions perfectly.
The only issue with it is this weird misconception that it’s purpose is to deliver energy, rather than to transfer wealth upwards…
Is this that same Cruz who called to stop attacking pedofiles? The same one who went to Cancun? The one ended up working like a dog for a man who insulted his wife? Or is it the one who staged immigrants crossing the border?
That Cruz?
Yeah he also once ran for human president.
Cuck Cruz
Wtf surprised he doesn’t fly private
This. Hella surprised he’d risk muggle transport and be recognized and called out.
Again. It has happened twice before, and he keeps doing it. Fucking ghoul.
And he’ll still get re-elected. He doesn’t give a fuck about his supporters but they don’t care. Being left for dead in the cold is still better than voting for a lib amirite?
Someone needs to check his house for abandoned dogs.
Kristi can deal with those.
And they’ll reelect him next round too.
Like clockwork.
I was gonna say. Didn’t he do this last time when everyone’s water pipes froze and the power went out?
Yep Cancun Cruz loves to act like foreskin and disappears when things get hard.
Again?
Fled knows California is nice, because of the taxes.
It’s also the freedoms
He’s not on a chartered flight? I find that hard to believe.
~~He said he will be back before the storm… so he is going on a 24hr vacation out if the country? ~~
Edit: Oh I thought I read cancun somewhere
Last time I was there, Laguna Beach was very much inside of the US, ridiculous right wing rhetoric about California being “unamerican” aside.
That said, I’d trust 100% human Senator Ted Cruz to beat the 100m world record before I trust him to be telling the unvarnished truth.
Supposed to rain today in Laguna Beach which makes this even stupider
Laguna beach is in the same country, just California
For now.
rafael is such a little shit.
he doesn’t have a private plane?
Those planes are Effing expensive
I can take solace in the fact that for all the selling out and boot licking this guy does, he still has to fly commercial.
It is always astounding how cheap they are willing to sell their souls and self-respect. But I guess it is so cheap because there was nothing there to begin with.
