Ted Cruz's political career over?

[Dr.3D]

Senators are not meant to be "told what to do by the people". They were envisioned and installed as the upper chamber,
our equivalent to the House of Lords, albeit not composed of the landed gentry, but the aristocracy of the bourgoisie, our
intelligentsia, our statesmen and men of respect and renown, precisely selected by the state assemblies for the purpose of
standing above the pull and tug of demogoguery.
Now, in 2021, I said why Cruz deserves no criticism. Firstly, it is not his domain of responsibility or effect. Secondly, he went
to visit his daughter on a family matter. Thirdly, only liberals play this game of deflecting from the true issue. So, please refrain
from casting accountability where it does not belong, but place your demands upon the responsible parties.

So where did you see me placing any blame on Mr. Cruz?
As far as I'm concerned, he should have stayed on vacation with his family.
There isn't anything he can do about what's happening anyway.

My use of the Reply button was perhaps too indiscriminate.
You said, "I thought people were elected to be representatives".

I wonder how many dems voted for him?

I wonder the same.

His lifetime Freedom Index Score of 68% just sank to a pathetic 50%.

Leave. Ted. Alone.

Last I checked Ted wasnt running for Gov

After reading all the criticism I was thinking that Cruz WAS the governor. I honestly didn't realize he was a senator. What can a senator do in this case?

Nobody's questioning his ability to go to Cancun. It's his clearly poor leadership skills and utter lack of a sense of responsibility to represent and act in the best interest of his constituents that are the issue.


The fact that he's clearly lying through his teeth about absolutely everything involved certainly doesn't help either

What can a senator do in this situation? I thought this was the governor's thing.

So wait.. Do Senators have constituents?
Of course they do.
What is the definition of a constituent in this case?

constituent noun

Seems rather obvious a Senator is elected to represent his constituents.

Situation is getting bit out of hand. Mariacahi band video within first 1:30 min seems undoctored, rest of the clip might not be worth watching as probably usual MSM pro-Dems commentary:

He should have stayed in Cancun, no apologies.

Amazingly, he's also been criticized by few in social media for 'abandoning his family' for scoring political points.
