The fake blue Texas narrative is a major blunder on their part.

thats what confused the shit out of me this whole season is them talking about Texas as purple/blue. Sure you have blue pockets in Austin and Dallas of Democrat transplants but this is fucking Texas.

It's people putting too much stock in the Beta v Cruz election in 2018. There were a lot of factors why that race was close.

One: Beta had over a $100 million of out of state funding, which was way more than the Cruz campaign.

Two: Cruz had a lot of scar tissue from 2016 and was still unpopular with a lot of us Trump supporters at the time.

Three: It was a midterm election where a lot of Trump supporters didn't go out to vote because Trump wasn't on the ticket (including me).

With all those factors, Beta still lost the election anyways.

Now in 2020, Trump is back on the ticket vs a weak Biden (the dumbass who talked about moving away from oil). No it's not going to be close at all with Texas, even with their attempts to cheat.

They took Harris County in 2018. Houston was always Democrat run, but now they took the suburbs, and installed 29 year old Lina la Exploradora as the county judge, the top chief executive of the largest county in the state. Her only previous job experience was being a part time translator. They also got a Soros backed D.A. who, true to form, refused to prosecute hundreds of George Kirby rioters, is a revolving door, letting criminals out of jail with no bond, etc.

And it looks like they will keep Harris County, even though the D.A. is unpopular with everyone, even many leftists, and even though it's quite obvious that unqualified Lina can't do the job.
