Cruz says he returned to Texas as quickly as he could after news of devastating floods broke. Flight data tells a different story.

So he toured the Parthenon during 4th of July weekend, 24 hours AFTER people were caught in the flood.

Rafael Cruz just doesn’t love Americans does he?

    If Musk wanted to make an impact with his new political party, he should go after Cruz’s seat. Nobody likes Cruz, even in his own party, but Texans won’t vote for a democrat.

    Ultimately, I hope his new party splits the GOP vote, but for that to happen they have to have a decent chance to win a few seats.

      i’m definitely overly pessimistic at this point, but i think this “new party” is going to go exactly nowhere. but if it does, and it splits the R vote, then i guess that’s something

        I’m optimistic, because either it works, and it splits the GOP vote, which makes it easier for Democrats to be elected. Or it doesn’t work, and it costs Musk and others massive amounts of money for no real purpose.

        Both those scenarios are good, and they’re the only 2 realistic scenarios I think could happen.

          i think it’s equally likely that the whole thing is just orchestrated timed planned reality tv bullshit fake drama and musk never intends to follow through on whatsoever. why? because they’re fucking psychopaths and want to fill the newsfeed up with bullshit to draw attention away from the fascism

          i honestly hope i’m wrong
