I wonder what Beto, who ran against Cruz, is doing? Hmmmm?
It’s not good for morale. He’s supposed to show some leadership.
I’m not a left winger by means, but this is really, really bad optics. And in times of strife, good morale is the key to recovery. Both physical and emotional.

Yeah I am sure this will be a hot button issue the next time he runs, four years from now.
His opponent will certainly use it against him.
I know I would.

Didn’t harm him with me, so obviously not a universal opinion.

He barely won the last time and that was when he had aspine that was at least partly intact. His aspirations have been shot to hell.

I am sure Texas Republicans will be willing to vote for a democrat because Cruz went on vacation. Whatever makes you feel better I guess.

You’re contrarian about most things.
Who ever said the opponent would be a democrat?

Nope, I am pretty consistent that elected officials can take a vacation.

He wasn’t elected to run a non-profit.

And that’s fine. You tend to push back on most generally agreed upon things. It’s your thing.

Isn’t it generally agreed that elected officials can take a vacation? Did you complain when Obama went to Hawaii? I didn’t.
Did he go to Hawaii while a natural disaster was happening?
