    He's such a good father he let Trump call their mom "ugly" and say that their grandfather killed JFK.

    Weird how his original ticket was for him to come back on Saturday and how he brought such a big rolling suitcase.

    I’ve heard that there’s currently a 450 times uptick in some parts of Texas. Meaning if one day of power normally costs you $4, it would cost you $1800 today - how true is this?

    It wouldn’t be hard to believe by any means.

    This disaster is a sign of what’s to come as Climate Change accelerates.

    Everything is bigger in Texas.





    Except my state happens to be over twice as big as Texas.

    It’ll take only be that much if your provider shuts down and your are forced to go on a last resort provider. A lot more Texans have had power restored and Houston has had 97% power restored.

    Great news... I think the only Texans I like live in Houston... I guess Willie Nelson is in Austin... but I know he definitely has back up systems.

    It’s still ridiculous but that’s the cost of privatisation in a free market I guess, live & learn. Good to hear things are slowly getting back to normal. I feel for you guys, I really do.

    It's funny to think about how hard Ted Cruz pretends to love Texas and hate Mexico so f---ing much... all for some votes from super ultra dumb rednecks that he thinks he is a million times better than.

    As an American... I'm kinda getting tired of having to bail out these third world shitholes with corrupt governments that can't even take care of their own people.

    I love watching Ted Cruz getting destroyed and knowing Trump is laughing at him for putting everything on the line for Trump and not even standing up against Trump when he insulted his wife and father.
