Social media exploded Thursday after reports surfaced that Texas Sen. Ted Cruz had jetted off to Mexico as millions of his constituents suffered without power or drinkable water during a freak storm system that has crippled his home state. State Democrats demanded Cruz resign. Cruz’s explanation for the trip, that he was dropping off his kids on a trip, was seen as out of touch by many and dubious by others. Cruz's staff had contacted local police Wednesday night asking for help at the airport.
