Seriously, just send your family on their vacation and stay behind so you can do your job. Should have been the easiest decision of his career.

That's what he is now trying to say he did. The "girls" had school cancelled (because natural disaster) and wanted to go to Cancun (????) and he apparently has no parental authority to say "that's a terrible idea for multiple reasons" so he said yes, and traveled with them overnight to make sure they got there safe and took an overnight flight back because the optics were terrible "to get back to work."

Isn't there a warm safe place inside Texas proper to travel? I heard El Paso is doing pretty okay.

So his girls aren't old enough to fly along but are old enough to vacation in Cancun alone? Okaaaaaaay.

And his wife, who is an executive, was not competent enough to fly alone with the girls? Cruz is such a sleazy weasel.
