“perhaps the most tumultuous time to have been a Michigander.”

Counterpoint: on a small trip to Northern Wisconsin last weekend I was stuck for 2 hours with a car that refused to start after a night at -20 due to a weakened battery/cold block. Had I been in an EV I may have dealt with lower range but I would have saved 2 hours of battery charging and block warming.

...my company executives were none the wiser... until now.

That’s perfect. I figured that would be the first excuse. Glad to see someone sniffed that one out.

He and his staff also lied. The claim initially was that this trip was booked “weeks ago” but turns out it was booked this week. And Cruz’s original return ticket was for Saturday.

THIS. Folks all busy reading him for filth for bailing on TX citizenry during a weather disaster....have totally forgotten to ream him for travelling during a pandemic.

I’d be amazed if he actually was going with any friends (his or his daughters).

Right?! The mind boggles at this decision-making.

That was my first thought. And even without the pandemic, assuming he was telling the truth (hahaha), it still makes his family look like spoiled brats. While the rest of the state freezes, the girls get to go on a fun vacation?

With a fully packed suitcase at that.

how about not taking a trip with friends during a global pandemic...

and honestly, she is in her 30's, this isn’t like that creepy scott disick business we’re talking about here..  

I mean that’s what Olivia Wilde did, so are we doing double standards now?

Jason Sudeikis has done what most famous men in their 40s do when their relationship ends, which is start dating a blonde model roughly 10 years their junior

Rich white guy continues to fail upward while all the people who work for him get screwed?

Because he has experience!

Success doesn’t matter. All that matters is that he’s already part of the club. It’s why every fucking failed CEO gets to fail again more spectacularly for more money.

Perfect for the job of getting people to work really hard then fire them! He’s a closer.

“Seriously, why are people still hiring him for jobs like this?”

While the MT has declined in large part due to what dealers stock I am not so sure about colors & combinations. Yes dealer stocking has something to do with it but that’s mostly the marketeers and such back at the manufacturers. They are all about this brand identity BS now. They really don’t care about the customer…
