I think “Fled” took more heat for fleeing the state during a crisis


than for the crisis itself… hence the nickname “Fled Cruz”. I know some tried to blame Texas energy policy for contributing to the crisis, and it sounds like Texas had been warned by federal regulators that their grid would fail in abnormally cold temperatures, so some of that criticism may be warranted (although that’s probably more a state govt criticism vs a Ted Cruz criticism)

Recently Spampa blamed EVs for a public transport outage in Norway or Finland recently when a) it was once in a century cold spell, b) all forms of transportation, including ICE were impacted, and c) some of the shutdowns were out of concern for worker safety. I suppose that is different.
