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.
Forget about that part. We got rid of him, he's your problem now.
Aren't you people supposed to be nice?
The polite thing to do would be to pick up your own garbage and toss it yourself.
/s
He self advertised as pure scum being and the americans from the south grabbed him like he was made of gold. You took it you keep it.
You can't just dump your garbage over here. Dispose of it properly by yourself. Compost that shit.

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

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.

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.
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.
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.
The last time ~~hell~~ Texas 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.

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?
And they'll reelect him next round too.
Someone needs to check his house for abandoned dogs.
Kristi can deal with those.
Wtf surprised he doesn't fly private
This. Hella surprised he’d risk muggle transport and be recognized and called out.

Again?
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.
~~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

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.
He’s not on a chartered flight? I find that hard to believe.
Never heard of the Waffle House Index, I find it comical that the FEMA uses it, informally.

Honestly he did less harm as the Zodiac Killer.
lol he flies commercial?
And coach, at that. Makes me wonder if it's AI. But congresspeople aren't always lavish and rich outside of their day jobs, and we know that Cruz is a glutton for degradation.
Absolutely real. There are other publicly documented flights, including well before any genai bordering realism. It’s a pattern. He does travel with at least guard at times, maybe always. There was a somewhat recent pic with his wife looking pretty annoyed at the dude snapping the shot. Made me smile imagining that she probably argues with him to have more separation from the pleebs somehow, but he is too cheap or some shit.

Twice is a coincidence, thrice is a pattern.
rafael is such a little shit.
Patterns like this are why people notice optics so quickly—leadership moments tend to stand out most when things get tough
This isn't the first time he's done this exact thing
