I’m sure my fellow Texans will be glad to know that while we’ve been freezing our asses off in the cold, trying to figure out how we’re suppose to boil water (for those of us lucky enough to have any) without electricity for our stoves, our beloved Senator Ted Cruz has whisked his family off for a family holiday in sunny Cancun. I mean, it’s not like people are freezing to death in their homes, the elderly are suffering in nursing homes without power, and hell, a chimpanzee and some monkeys have died of the cold at a sanctuary . You go, Ted, have a good time. It’s not like us shivering peasants have any right to expect you to stick around and work to fix this situation.
Decades of Republican misrule have lead to this situation. Our governor is blaming AOC for the failure of the power grid, our former governor is saying that we’d rather freeze in the dark than have government regulation on our electricity, and now Teddyboy has fled the country because it’s just too darn cold in the state he was elected to represent. Folks, it’s time like these when people turn to their pitchforks and torches.
Texas is turning blue right before your eyes (in more ways than one),
