Do you remember when Texas Sen. Ted Cruz went on vacation to Cancun, Mexico, in February 2021, while a winter storm ravaged his home state?
Even though senators, being part of the federal legislature and all, are in no way involved with the on-scene emergency response to natural disasters, that didn’t stop the left from savaging Cruz.
“One night in Cancun: Ted Cruz’s disastrous decision to go on vacation during Texas storm crisis,” The Washington Post declared. Perpetual candidate Beto O’Rourke was in Texas because he has nothing else to do but run for higher office (and lose), and he battered Cruz for the vacation, saying he was “is vacationing in Cancun right now when people are literally freezing to death in the state that he was elected to represent and serve.”
“I don’t know how much we were expecting from him to begin with. The people of Texas have really stepped up and make me really proud … that guy wants nothing to do with government, or at least our form of it,” O’Rourke said, according to ABC News. Nobody asked Beto what Ted Cruz could have done because the crickets would have spoiled the narrative.
Anyway, Cruz apologized, calling the trip a “mistake.” Remember all that?

Well, the people who were outraged don’t, at least not for the moment, because our Democratic president is currently doing the same thing:

But President Joe Biden? He’s staying warm in Saint Croix the Caribbean, having left the White House Tuesday night for a post-Christmas jaunt.
Should Joe Biden run for president again?
