Ted Cruz has been slammed for joking that Texans should “join me in Cancun” as the state braces for a deep freeze.
“Texans, with the freeze coming, wrap your pipes, cover your plants, stay off icy roads & keep your family safe. And, if it gets too damn cold, join me in Cancun!” he wrote on X.

Hear me out: this was tactless and in poor taste, but it is funny and I even think this might be a real Ted Cruz joke. You don’t often see self awareness in a politician at that level, and I almost respect it?
I felt really bad for Texans last winter when it got cold and their third world electrical grid shit out. This year, all I can think is “so why the fuck are you still living in Texas?”
Self awareness would be an apology, not "Huck Huck I don't care who dies as long as they aren't rich like me, lol". We see real self awareness from more leftist Congress critters all the time, although the capitalist media tends to paint it as bad, somehow. I'm glad you only "almost respect" this tone deaf statement.
Because, for whatever reason, we are stuck here.
I'm glad you seem to have the freedom from responsibility, coupled with the funds and work that can allow that.
Most people don't.
