American senator Ted Cruz is in soup after he travelled to Cancun, Mexico with his family

American senator Ted Cruz is in soup after he travelled to Cancun, Mexico with his family as millions of Texans suffered through crippling cold and devastating power outages which led to loss of lives. He has rushed back to Texas as calls increase for his resignation. The senator is calling the trip a mistake and he is pleading for forgiveness but there are increasing calls for him to resign and leave office. What is your take on this? Should he resign or not? 

In a statement issued Thursday, Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa called the senator's trip to Cancún "deeply disturbing and disappointing."

He further described Cruz as "an enemy to our democracy" for challenging the certification of the Electoral College vote before and after the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and as "an enemy to our state" for "jetting off to Mexico while Texans remain dying in the cold."

"The Texas Democratic Party calls on Ted Cruz to resign or be expelled from office," Hinojosa said. "Barring that, we will put all of the resources we have into defeating him and every Texas Republican who abandoned us in this disaster, including Governor Abbott and Lieutenant Governor Patrick, in 2022 and 2024."
