Ted Cruz buried under avalanche of scorn for 'sad' photo-op to prove he cares about storm-ravaged Texans

In what can only be described as a desperate attempt at damage control after being busted for flying off to sunny Cancun while his constituents were freezing in storm-ravaged Texas, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) posted pictures of himself loading water into cars on Twitter Saturday night with the hashtag #TexasStrong.

Cruz has taken a beating from both sides of the aisle for accompanying his family for a quickie vacation as Texans statewide were trying to survive without water and heat in the freezing cold, and has since apologized. Cruz has also been shown up by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) who raised millions for struggling Texans and then flew down to the state to help with relief efforts.

Needless to say, few on Twitter were buying what Cruz was selling and they let him know it -- as you can see below:
