sydneykolln on 21 Feb 21Personally, I feel like it was wrong for Ted Cruz to go to Cancun when Texas is freezing and having a power outage. What are your thoughts on this?

saraivargas on 22 Feb 21While people in Texas are struggling for power, on top of a global pandemic happening Ted Cruz should not be leaving for Cancun.

thepriceisright on 22 Feb 21This is especially sad as well because up until now he denied climate change, and when he was proven wrong, instead of helping, he just left.

gbrochu915 on 22 Feb 21I think that him and his family are wrong because he didn't believe in climate change and not that he knows that iyts real hes not going to do anything to help, hes just going to leave.

vperez191 on 22 Feb 21I don't think what Ted Cruz did was okay. It shows that he doesn't care about what the people in Texas are going through and just makes him look bad in general.

lhunter952 on 22 Feb 21I feel like if you are someone who is viewed as a leader, you should not run away from the problems at hand. He is a congressman in Texas and I feel like he should've stayed home with his people and not go stay in Cancun while his state is under duress

abbidominguez on 22 Feb 21I think Ted Cruz leaving to go on a trip to Cancun with his family was extremely immature and inconsiderate. He is a well known politician with a large following that leaves a lot of people looking up to him. As soon as things got bad he decided to leave when instead he should have been helping and thinking of recovery plans for the people in Texas.

haileejoy on 22 Feb 21I think that Ted Cruz leaving was really dumb on his part. Peoples houses are literally falling apart and flooding and people are dying and he is doing nothing about it. So unless he's out there making plans on how to save everybody, he doesnt deserve the title he has.

arosas733 on 23 Feb 21I feel like this was not right of him to do. Ted Cruz is an important figure there in Texas and if he can't be there to help during the bad times, he shouldn't deserve to be there for the good.

ericschmidtberge on 23 Feb 21I understand that even if he had stayed most likely it wouldn't have had that much of an effect on the situation but it's basically a slap in the face to all the people who didn't have the fund's in Texas to even heat their homes if that was an option and could only dream on going on a vacation to Cancun. He at a minimum could have donated the money the family spent on the trip to help some of the people freezing to death and losing their homes.

nick_rice on 23 Feb 21I believe he did not do the right thing in that situation and he should have stayed and helped Texas instead of running away like a little baby.

kredding147 on 26 Feb 21This made me so mad. I know that he was just trying to be a good dad, but he's not just any dad. He's a senator. And there's a crisis going on and he's flying to Mexico while people are literally dying.
-
alejandro4 on 04 Mar 21He should've stayed in Texas to help the texans in crisis instead of going to cancun for warmth.
-
masonmascarenas on 05 Mar 21Personally, I don't think Ted Cruz should have left Texas because it was a time that people needed help from the government most and he wasn't anywhere to be seen.
-
owenjacobs on 08 Mar 21Ted Cruz should not have left but there was not much that he could do being a senator in DC. The most he could have done much like Dan Crenshaw was hand out water, or food. And that is better than nothing but he had no control over what was going on or had no way to actually help bring the power back.

noahsandbothe on 27 Apr 21I think it's ironic to say that Joe Biden was hiding during the campaign trail in the 2020 election. Then proceeds to "Hide" in Cancun when his state was in a crisis.
-
jdogan on 05 May 21This especially makes me mad since most of my family lives in Texas and they had no power and no running water and he just left them alone there to go to Cancun. This is a situation involving his own state and he doesn't even show the decency to pretend to care about the people there as their senator
-
mgerman776 on 24 May 21Why would you abandon your state when they need you most? Sounds selfish and morally just wrong.
-
jcontreras201 on 25 May 21I think that Ted Cruz was dumb for this because he is a senator and should be trying to do something about their outages but instead he became selfish and fled to Mexico.
