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.
zantax:Difference is, Cruz
The similarities being that neither will ever be elected to a position of power again
Yeah I am sure this will be a hot button issue the next time he runs, four years from now.
Difference is, Cruz going to Cancun doesn’t harm anyone.
It harms Cruz.
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.

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

Well since I don’t much care if he gets primaried by a republican…

It appears that the Republicans & Conservatives who actually live in Texas are pissed
And rightfully so.

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?
