    Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has acknowledged that his family vacation to Mexico was “obviously a mistake” as he returned stateside following an uproar over his disappearance during a deadly winter storm.http://apne.ws/we3PvkR

        When Texas sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing treasonists. They’re bringing crime. They’re zodiac killers. And some, I assume, are good people.

        But I thought he was just “dropping them off” and immediately returning home (with a different return date and 5 days worth of clothes). Very odd, Rafael.

        He should have hiked the Appalachian trail instead.

        It was only a "mistake" when Ted got caught. Cue remorse in five, four, three...

        By tomorrow Ted will be telling us it’s all just an overreaction by the wild radical socialist Marxist antifa reactionaries.

        This one, this time, just can’t blow over. He needs to go, especially knowing the only thing he has to show for as Senator this past year is a failed attempt to overthrow the government that resulted in 6 persons dead, mainly maimed and leaving the entire country in PTSD.

        Agreed. I also have zero faith that he will actually face any repercussions.
