Meanwhile Ted Cruz chooses a bad time to go to Mexico.

I'd rather that we'd never started those wars at all.
Bin Laden was an enemy....but not the problem.

I recall getting harassed often for having vocally opposed both U.S. - Iraqi wars. I remained silent w.r.t. the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan.

Anti-war views do meet much opposition.
Isolationist!
Muslim apologist!
We can't ignore it!
Peacenik!
We have no choice!
Draft dodger!

OK, that last one is more about my lack of patriotism.

I see nothing wrong. Cruz isn't of any immediate use to fellow
Texans regarding the plague or utility outages.
I think you are missing the point. There is a pandemic! You should not be travelling to other countries during a pandemic. I am the last person to suggest Cruz could be useful to anyone. But just because he is a useless sack does not give him license to spread the virus to Mexico. There is useless, and then there is dangerous.

Especially if he doesn’t have it, stay home and be scared everyone, especially when the people sounding the alarm do whatever they want.

That hasn't been the criticizing that's most prominent.
But I'll address it. If one can travel safely, I'm OK with it.
I have a 680 mile trip coming up in Mr Van.
I'll do it safely.

Do you know that he isn't taking adequate precautions?
I'd agree with you, if he were.

If he was taking adequate precautions, he would not have gotten on the plane.

Ted Cruz - sounding the alarm about COVID? Who have you been listening to? Have you seen any PSAs of Cruz telling his constituents to wear a mask?

Didn’t mean Ted Cruz, who cares if he went on vacation, funny anyone would mention it seen as Democrats can plan a Puerto Rico trip on the beach and Hamilton show during a gov’t shut down in the past.

Whataboutism is your best argument? Really?

I think it was very smart of him to escort his daughter and friends to Mexico.
But of course many of you are blaming his actions becuase of his political afflilation.
You wouldn't expect that to change? Would you?

That is quite the false equivalency. Essential services continue without a hitch during a government "shutdown". What immediate needs do you think exist? Meanwhile Cruz abandoned Texas when his constituents needed him the most.

True, Cruz is essential for Texas, Democrats in Congress aren’t needed. Do more good staying on the beach
 
It must really suck to have to live under such a poor example of a senator. Even other Republicans have chewed him out for his callous behavior.
Yeah that’s good, only politicians worth anything are some Republicans, can’t think of any Democrats all corrupt from the President on down.

It still amazes and mystifies me that born-again Christians worship Trump.

I guess it should serve as an indicator of Christian morals.
