Chapter 2: How did the Texas crisis affect residents?
I mean, you know that the infrastructure is screwed when your best option for water is to mug a snowman. But the saddest part is that these people are the lucky ones because it turns out one poor Texan had to travel 800 miles just to get heat

Your people are literally eating snow right now, and you're jetting off to Cancun? I'm not even mad that you were selfish. I'm mad that you were so stupid. How can you be in politics for 10 years and still have no idea how bad this would make you look? What were you thinking? I know my people are freezing and hungry right now.
So what they need is a photo of my beach bod, because if they see me in a Speedo, their eyes will burst into flames and the whole family can warm their hands over those flames. I mean, look, I get that Ted Cruz is tired. You know, the man deserves a break after trying so hard to overthrow the government, but this is not the time, Ted!
When your constituents said they need clean water, they didn't mean go find a wet T-shirt contest in Cancun.

And what's even worse is that when he got caught, instead of owning up to it and apologizing, he acted like a total Ted Cruz.

I flew down with them last night and I'm flying back this afternoon.
Oh, I see. We all got this thing wrong. Ted Cruz wasn't going on vacation, people. He was just chaperoning his girls on the flight to Cancun. So in some way, this was like a reverse taken. I want you to know that I'm a man with absolutely no skills whatsoever, and I'm gonna safely accompany my daughters on this trip. Seriously, Ted Cruz blaming his daughters for this is just gross.
