=== Cruz's Family Vacation (01:34) ===

[00:00:00]  Guys, we got to talk Ted Cruz a little bit.
[00:00:02]  I see the news going out there right now.
[00:00:04]  They're trying to cancel him.
[00:00:06]  He took a family vacation.
[00:00:07]  Now, obviously, we understand sometimes the optics of that right now isn't ideal.
[00:00:15]  But in the grand scheme of things, he's a senator.
[00:00:20]  He doesn't manage crises in states.
[00:00:22]  That's a governor's job.
[00:00:23]  He's a federal employee.
[00:00:25]  They mostly vote on things.
[00:00:27]  So, you know, I'm not going to jump on this bandwagon of trying to cancel the guy for taking his kids on a vacation.
[00:00:35]  Again, maybe it's not the ideal time.
[00:00:37]  Quite certainly it's not.
[00:00:39]  But, like, give me a break.
[00:00:41]  That they're spending more time focusing on this than they are You know, governors just flagrantly disregarding their executive orders shutting down states, etc.
[00:00:52]  Shows you how ridiculous things are.
[00:00:54]  Now, if I were a Trump, which I am, you know, I'd come up with a nickname for something like this, like maybe, I don't know, Cancun Cruz.
[00:01:04]  It's funny, okay?
[00:01:06]  But like, honestly, I can't get on this bandwagon trying to cancel the guy.
[00:01:12]  It's totally ridiculous.
[00:01:13]  It's absolutely absurd.
[00:01:15]  They should focus on the things that matter.
[00:01:17]  They should focus on people in power who could actually affect change in a crisis, not people who work and legislate from D.C. Doesn't make sense.
[00:01:26]  It's a double standard we'll always have to live up to, but let's be real.
[00:01:31]  I'm happy to call out someone, even the people on our side, if they screw up.
