File photo dated September 23, 2020 of US Republican Senator from Texas Ted Cruz at Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, USA. Texas Senator Ted Cruz flew to Mexico with his family for a holiday amid a winter weather crisis that has left millions in his state without power. Mr Cruz said on Thursday he planned the trip for his daughters, "wanting to be a good dad", but that he had returned because it "didn't feel right". Texas has seen power and water outages due to the uncommonly freezing weather. The high-profile Republican has drawn quick criticism for taking an international trip amid the weather emergency in his state. Photo by Thew Shawn/Pool/ABACAPRESS.COM
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is supposed to quarantining after his trip to Cancun, but he is violating quarantine to stage desperate photo-ops.
Cruz tweeted:
Here is what the CDC says Cruz is supposed to be doing:
– Get tested with a viral test 3-5 days after travel AND stay home and self-quarantine for a full 7 days after travel.
– Even if you test negative, stay home and self-quarantine for the full 7 days.
– If your test is positive, isolate yourself to protect others from getting infected.
– If you don’t get tested, stay home and self-quarantine for 10 days after travel.
–Avoid being around people who are at increased risk for severe illness for 14 days, whether you get tested or not.
It is unknown if Cruz got tested when he came home from Mexico, but he is supposed to be in quartine. It doesn’t matter if Cruz has been vaccinated. He is ignoring public health guidelines because his White House ambitions are virtually dead.
Ted Cruz is happy to potentially jeopardize the lives of his constituents for some photos that make it look like he cares.
Cruz has been piling bad decisions on top of each other and showing that he doesn’t belong in the Senate, much less the White House.
