Is this that same Cruz who called to stop attacking pedofiles? The same one who went to Cancun? The one ended up working like a dog for a man who insulted his wife? Or is it the one who staged immigrants crossing the border?

That Cruz?

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah he also once ran for human president.

Cuck Cruz

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

As long as Texans are dumb enough to vote for this asshole again and again, he does not need to worry.

[-] AquaTofana@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

And they are, which is so fucking frustrating. I will never not be salty about Colin Allred losing to him. I really thought they'd be irate over him fleeing Snowpocalypse and Texans actively dying INSIDE their homes in 2021.

But no, he won the fucking popular vote. Again.

Also, as someone who moved from Texas to Cali: Fuck off Fled Cruz we don't fucking want you or your ilk in this state.

Also, also, I find it extremely funny that he's leaving Texas ahead of the winter storm again, and I'm heading back to Texas tomorrow to surprise a friend for her birthday. I wish I wasnt living through Snowmaggeden 2: Electric Boogaloo to be quite honest.

Raphael Cruz is a living embodiment of the power of having an R beside their name.

[-] tresspass@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

There are plenty of Texans who vote left or can be persuaded to as well. I've learned recently that Texas politics are way more nuanced than I realized. The good Texans that want to work together should be invited into the coalition.

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 8 points 1 week ago

That's what he does. He runs home when the cold comes.

[-] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I still don't understand why people call him Ted...

His name is Raphael, and always was up until he needed to trick white supremacists into thinking he was white too

[-] normonator@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

Forget about that part. We got rid of him, he's your problem now.

[-] Dojan@pawb.social 1 points 1 week ago

Raphael is too pretty a name to be wasted on a sack of shit like him.

[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Calling him a sack of shit is an insult to shit.

[-] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago

Sonofabitch.

Welp, good luck Texans.

Your grid is going down again.

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Ah yes the yearly service interruptions brought to you by the superior free market.

What is wrong with a company spiking the price of electricity by 4,000%? Don't like it just switch to another company that will do the same thing. Choice is wonderful.

[-] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

You second college class in MacroEcon, or an AP Macro Econ course... generally goes over how cartels are bad, and the government tends to run utilities because if they don't, you get the exact situation that Texas has.

[-] crystalmerchant@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Wtf surprised he doesn't fly private

[-] rekabis@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

This. Hella surprised he’d risk muggle transport and be recognized and called out.

[-] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

rafael is such a little shit.

[-] FrowingFostek@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

And they'll reelect him next round too.

[-] MunkyNutts@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Never heard of the Waffle House Index, I find it comical that the FEMA uses it, informally.

[-] Zoabrown@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Patterns like this are why people notice optics so quickly—leadership moments tend to stand out most when things get tough

[-] human@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 week ago

Someone needs to check his house for abandoned dogs.

[-] nexguy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

~~He said he will be back before the storm... so he is going on a 24hr vacation out if the country? ~~

Edit: Oh I thought I read cancun somewhere

[-] itistime@infosec.pub 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

If anyone would like to meet poopoo head in person in an unusual context now you know a pattern…

[-] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago

Our overlords. The idle rich.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah, that's his move. Such a leader.

[-] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago
[-] infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

And coach, at that. Makes me wonder if it's AI. But congresspeople aren't always lavish and rich outside of their day jobs, and we know that Cruz is a glutton for degradation.

[-] itistime@infosec.pub 3 points 1 week ago

Absolutely real. There are other publicly documented flights, including well before any genai bordering realism. It’s a pattern. He does travel with at least guard at times, maybe always. There was a somewhat recent pic with his wife looking pretty annoyed at the dude snapping the shot. Made me smile imagining that she probably argues with him to have more separation from the pleebs somehow, but he is too cheap or some shit.

[-] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I wonder how long the flight was.

"Hey Ted, Ted, Ted, Ted, Ted, Ted Cruz....can you hear me?... hey! hey! Ted! TED! TEDDY! Remember when Trump called your wife a fat pig? Hey, answer me! Hey, Ted listen, listen, listen, listen, over here Ted....Hey. Hey. Ted, will none of those rich dudes let you barrow a private jet? Do you clog the toilets up or what? Ted, Ted, Ted, Teddy! Teddo! Teddoboy!"

[-] f4f4f4f4f4f4f4f4@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

He's a fan of deadnames, so he's Rafael.

Rafael Edward Cruz.

Shitbags can be frugal too. Lol. Lord knows his bribes are enough to fly business

[-] lemonhead2@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

he doesn't have a private plane?

[-] RestrictedAccount@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Those planes are Effing expensive

[-] user_name@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago
[-] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

I was gonna say. Didn't he do this last time when everyone's water pipes froze and the power went out?

[-] KhantoBlackhand@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago

Yep Cancun Cruz loves to act like foreskin and disappears when things get hard.
