Is he the only politician in Texas? Or do they have mayors, Congress people, a Governor, or another Senator? What he did is bad. But people acting like he makes all the decisions in that state when there is a snow storm.

Most of the blame toward him was his reaction/actions during the pandemic

He's not, he's just one of their most highly visible politicians that was caught doing some really slimy shit and its deservedly catching flak for it, on top of the really slimy shit that he's been doing for years as a flip-flop Trump bootlicker

All the other assholes in Texas that let this happen need to step up too.

The fact he mocked and blamed other states that had similar disasters
The fact he fled the state and only returned when caught
The fact he tried to blame "Green energy" despite the main problem coming from other energy sources

Politician has huge problem in his own state and flees to another country when it gets real bad. How does that look?

These too.

Then again, people asking the questions like the one in the OP already knew all that and just have to deflect or lie to defend a Republican.

Because he's a literal worthless excuse of a dogshit human being who doesn't care at all for his constituents.

In other words, he's a true politician.

Ted Cruz isn't getting "all the blame". He's only be justly called out on his own lack of competency.

Before Cruz's little stunt, Governor Greg Abbott was getting his fair share of the scorn as well.

The eye patch Congressmen has done two out of those three but not getting as much heat as Ted Cruz right now.

He's not getting blamed lol. He's just (rightfully) getting called an asshole. Better question is why is AOC getting blamed?

Hes not getting all the blame. He's being attacked for fleeing the country to go on vacation and blaming his daughters.

Both sides suck. Both parties are corrupt and think of themselves over the people they serve. To fix the system we need to start from scratch yet that wont happen.

If she really cared she'd be housing them all, or raised TWO million.

It's to be expected when these people (who live out of state with nothing else to do) leave their outrage keyboard stations with the sole intent to focus their collective magnifying glass on a rando proverbial anthill.

As evidenced in this topic.

Who is acting like he's solely to blame? Texas as a whole didnt plan ahead. They didnt have proper weather proofing for their energy grid and other essentials. They thought they didn't need to worry about something like this and never planned for it. No one person is to blame. That takes a group effort going back decades.

It is easy to blame one person or thing like Ted Cruz or Wind Power but most people won't do that.

Some of the news coverage I've seen has blamed the Green New Deal. AOC is a driving force for that.

You said in the past that you get your news mostly from NewsMax and OANN, is that the coverage you are referring to?

Fox as well. Even Fox's news reporters who use to be competent now just regurgitate Tucker Carlson and Hannity talking points. That means blame Wind power and green energy for everything.

Why do you say that? Did you think I was praising Fox? That was me pointing out that they are now as bad as OANN and Newsmax.

I asked because I was asking him (to have him clarify his statement), so wasn't sure if you were him. You are absolutely right about Fox's shift though

even if he's not responsible for it, its still a terrible look when you flee the state you're supposed to represent during a time of crisis.

but i suppose politicians dont give a damn about looking bad anymore these days...

He is a sack of shit that incited a riot and fled his home state (also blatantly lied about it) during one of its biggest natural disasters.

Not really, no. It was left in the care of his security guard staying at his place.

He did flee Texas in the middle of an emergency though and made a piss poor excuse, returning after being caught.
