Critics went to town on Cruz, recalling his fleeing on a family vacation to Cancun in February as devastating winter storms struck his home state. The historic freeze killed hundreds and left millions of Texans without power.

You were literally arguing with Big Bird 2 weeks ago. Sit down and shut the fuck up.
