I, Ted Cruz, am hearing now that my decision to go to Cancun while Texas is devastated by a winter storm and when millions remained without power was wrong!
This has been very confusing for me. I was just doing what I thought made sense, based on my entire lifes experience of how people respond to my being somewhere, which is to say: They get mad that I am there and say they want me to leave.
Seeing Texas in crisis, my reasoning was that the last thing anyone would want would be for me to show up. I assumed that the only thing that could make everyones experience worse would be the addition of Ted Cruz. My power is out
I am breaking up my furniture to burn it
and Ted Cruz is here! That third thing would be the thing that broke you, I think.
It has been a new experience for me to see people upset that I am NOT there rather than simply upset that I am there. Indeed, seeing people roundly denouncing me for going away from them during their time of trial has been
confusing and bittersweet. It really sounds like they wish I were there, but that cant be it, can it? I know that cant be it.
Obviously, if you are about to change the habit of a lifetime and be angry that I am absent instead of present, I am excited about it! I am coming back now! And I have an enormous collection of cans of soup! I promise I will never leave your side again.
