Ted Cruz Cancun

He's on a scheduled vacation, and he's a senator, not the governor. Gregg abbott is in charge of handling this

No, wasn't scheduled. Doesn't matter, nothing that the Senator could do to change what happened. And Gov.Grabbit isn't in charge of handling this. It is the purview of ERCOT, who manages distribution and the various companies that generate the electricity. It they who screwed the pooch here in Texas.

Yes, it was a scheduled congress break, and he had plans down in Cancun.

Sorry, my bad generalizing it and saying it's Abbott's job. My point wasn't about who exactly is in charge, but that it isn't Cruz. What do you want him to do about the blackouts as a US senator?

Furthermore, you didn't say anything about a "scheduled congress break". What you said was:
"He's on a scheduled vacation, and he's a senator..."
Hell, every other day or week is a " scheduled congress break" in the Swamp

Sorry, I wasn't clear

no problem.
it is so irritating when anyone tries to blame a politician for something that is clearly not their fault

That's what i was saying. They were blaming Ted Cruz, but it's not his fault

As I already articulated in a previous post, there is nothing that he could do during the event. My previous post, in it's entirety:

Good for him!!!
What would you have him do? Climb a utility pole? Thaw out a windmill?? Shovel coal into a generating plant?

He is doing what most politicians should do...getting the f**k out of the way and letting those who know what they are doing do it.

The reason the grid is so f**ked up is politics and politicians meddling in things they know nothing about in order to generate the maximum amount of taxes, fees, and red tape.

We don't disagree here. Why are you getting heated?

Well, it's cold as shit here, so...

Oof. I was Born and raised in Texas, but I live in Idaho now. It's funny how our weather rn is about equal. I hope you can stay warm!
