Going on a Cruz I see
-
I just hope he bough Raphael a ticket too. That guy HATES being in Texas when the people there are suffering more than he legislates for.
-
-
I'm glad my Tax Dollars paid for his Vacation instead of LITERALLY ANYTHING TO HELP ANYONE AT ALL IN THE STATE!
-
It's not a vacation. He's there on a planned political trip.
I hate the defend the guy because he's an idiot, but this outrage as if this is like when cruz fles the state on an actual vacation to avoid a situation he helped cause doesn't make any sense.
But then again, it's not about making sense, it's about being the most outraged over this.

“While I am in Taiwan, South Korea & Japan working on business deals worth billions, I remain in daily contact with Texas Division of Emergency Management & local officials to ensure preparation for Hurricane Beryl. Your safety is our top concern,” he wrote.
Until investment transparency exists in Texas (and elsewhere) to show who's pockets grow, it was a business trip worth billions. Texas is not his only business, and they are his top concern.
-
A hurricane has a serious impact on the people and infrastructure of a state. A governor unwilling to put an emergency among the people he was elected to represent ahead of a foreign investment trip deserves every drop of the outrage that he brings upon himself.
This is an example of when outrage is real and deserved rather than manufactured. Your hand waving is out of place.

This is the guy whose very own Lieutenant Gov Dan Patrick suggested during the peak of Covid that the elderly should unretire and get back to work!, sacrificing themselves for.. the economy. Seriously, that's not a joke, that actually happened. Both Abbott and Patrick are likely technically of "elder" age. Mother Nature clearly demands vengeance by way of Texan blood, even if it's the blood of hate filled shit-donuts like these two. We can round Cruz's age to elderly too, because fuck it
-
It certainly seems like the governor fancies himself president of Texas. Heads of state means leader of countries not US states.
-
-
Planned before problem? Seems easy enough to me. "hey SK, Japan, Taiwan I know I was supposed to attend a meeting but like, I'm expecting a major fuckin problem for my people, I'm sure you understand the problem of hurricanes and flooding." Followed by a public statement "hey I'm here for my people, since we're expecting a major storm."
-
It bugs me that he is doing tasks better suited for the Secretary of State and that he is unwilling to reschedule to focus on an emergent issue in his jurisdiction.

-
That's so Texas.
-
I give it a one-star rating.
-
"If I could give it less stars, I would. But one is the minimum."

isnt it kinda par for the course that republicans abandon texas in a natural disaster, and rush off to some safe, comfortable country until it passes?
Meanwhile the evil liberal democrats aid organizations are on the ground before the rain stops giving help and aid to their constituents, who take it, then go home and cry about the evilbad demoncrats
-
Yeah republicans are really embracing the "evil cartoon villain" vibe the best that they can.
-
nah. Just embracing the deplorable.
Not even Cartoon Villains would fuck kids.
-
-
it's because they are utter cowards and are unable to face their constituents.
-
-
Why should he care for his people? They were stupid enough to vote for him once (at least enough of them, fuck the others), they will stay stupid enough to vote for him again.
-
As long as he continues to persecute people with melanin and women, he's fine. The insurance will cover the storm damage and they'll blame the liberal media for the fifty percent increase in premiums that follow.
Source: lived in this shit hole for twenty years and counting.
-
Maybe they can blame wind power again for their failing freedum grid.
-
-
Texans really like people who don't care about them, just like the people in my state of FL.
-
Its the "Free State of Florida" now per the new interstate signs.
-
-
I mean he's already a ghoul, is this that surprising? He's been racing to see whose state can out-suck Louisiana, with him and DeSantis neck and neck for last place.
-
Don't mess with Texas, especially when there's a crisis!
-
Or what, they’re gonna fuck their grid up even more? Secede?
-
I wish they'd just shut the hell up and secede already. It's like having an abusive spouse who just won't stop threatening to leave. Just leave, we don't want you.
-
-
Don't mess with texas, the ones with money will just leave
-
-
Is Cruz with him? Seems about time for him to jet off somewhere too.
-
Isn't he already in Cancun again or was that just a joke?
-
-
Does this count as elitist in the minds of the cons? They have so perverted the term.
-
Tickets to the Philippines and then Cancun Mexico please....
-
Greg Abbott didn't earn the nickname "hot wheels" for nothin.
-
He should go see some sawtooth oaks while he's there.
