Ted Cruz Claims His Mexico Trip Was Him 'Taking Care' Of His Family During Power Outages
“I really couldn’t afford the NANNY who was supposed to go!”
“Whatta ya got in FIRST CLASS?”
Lyin’ Flyin’ Ted Cruz
💯👏🏼
maybe just F-lyin’ ted
Cruz, just resign already! You clearly have no interest in being a “public servant”!
He’s Lyin’ Ted. So crooked he can’t lay straight in bed.
Thank You!!!!
If he resigned, he wouldn’t be relevant by the time he started to run for president.
Oh look. Our first ‘privileged climate change refugee’ documented…meanwhile:
Beto is helping Texans right now in Texas.
You are such a classy guy.
Lying Ted , taking care of his family , right. Brings back a big luggage as he is escorted by police back to Texas. LOLOLOL
Like he took care of his wife when Trump called her ugly, or his father when Trump said he was involved in JFKs assassination? Yeah. Mexico has a higher death percentage from COVID than America, and it’s closer to the South American variant. Enjoy your vacation, Ted. Texas deserves you.
First he sells out his wife now his daughter blaming her. Piece of crap. He’s not a man.
Then He has cops escort him from the airport like there aren’t better things they can help with during this crisis. he cares about himself no one else. Wake up Texas..
His daughter hates him. search for ted cruz daughter and you’ll see what I mean.
@Quantumsneak …even more now…
@Quantumsneak
Must be a Republican idiosyncrasy.
Giuliani’s daughter doesn’t care for DOD either.
Little teddy is taking cues from his daddy Trump. “When you have a problem, run away, dont take responsibilities, and pass it on to someone else”
He’s not the only one taking cues from Trump, America had better do something about these losers, or you’ll be sorrier than you already are.
@Lumby1 You speak the truth because next time could be “all the time without water or electricity” without any explanation due from “The Fuhrer”.
Maybe his kids could have phone banked with Beto and learned about being responsible.
Amen Brother
If their last name is cruz the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree…
👏👏👏👏👏👏👍
No wonder people call him lying ted
He’s not Ted — that’s just his attempt to “anglicize”.
@Brenda Cowling his real name is rafael eduardo cruz aka lying ted and he’s Cuban by blood!
Cruz across the border?
Trump’s wall didn’t keep him in? Texas… You import the big stupid.
To throw his kids under the bus says he don’t care about Texans at all!!
He’s such a liar. Of course I have other names for him but I’ll leave it at that
So NOW he cares about his family.😄
He didn’t seem to care when Trump was insulting his wife and his father.
He is a sad jerk
@David J : B R A V O !!!!!!!
The way he’s talking like he doesn’t care his job and Houstan people copy cat of Trumpet
Lying Ted can’t stand up for his wife and father. He can’t stand up for the people of Texas.
During a pandemic, NO DECENT FATHER would allow his daughter to go off on a Mexican lark.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Normally, the people get the elected officials they deserve! “We the People” aren’t concerned, they wanted him, they got him.
He didn’t care when trump insulted his wife.
Wait, he wants to keep out the Mexicans, but in a crisis he takes his family to mexico. Oh, thee irony…
Yup
Texans have a saying that describes people like Ted Cruz . “ All Hat and no Saddle”
