Ted Cruz sounds the alarm on Republicans losing Texas in 2020 saying 'it's all over if they win' as Donald Trump holds microscopic lead over Joe Biden

Sen. Ted Cruz warned the Texas GOP State Convention if the Democrats win the Lone Star State both the White House and the Senate are gone. 'If the Democrats win Texas it's all over,' Cruz said by video to virtual convention attendees. 'Texas is the single biggest target for the left in 2020, politically speaking. There are 38 electoral votes at stake. There's a U.S. Senate seat at stake. And Texas is the key to national domination for years to come,' the Texas Republican pointed out, in the video address he posted to Twitter Sunday. Polling has shown the race between President Donald Trump and Democrat Joe Biden tighter than expected in Texas, once a reliably red state, where voters picked Trump over Hillary Clinton in 2016 by nine points.

For me, only a question of when not if Texas and Georgia turn Blue. The demographics trends are overwhelming.

Once that happens the GOP is done as a national party that can win the White House.

....moved from Virginia when it was truly a “red” state - look at it now...live in Texas which is at this point still a “red” state...and I fear the same thing will happen here that happened in Virginia....

We’re in deep trouble. Texas, Georgia and Arizona are not heading in a good direction. Any one of those goes and it’s all over. The only way we might survive is if we can permanently keep Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin which will not be easy.

The GOP has ceased to exist for about 25 years now. Its the corporate lobbyist party. This is why they won’t lift a finger to help Trump.

They are bought and paid for.

There has been a million opportunities to run the Democrats into the ground. They are not interested in doing so.

Ted Cruz is a master political strategist and he is now baiting the Democrats into wasting big money in Texas for an election that they will not win in a state that the Democrats will never win.

Between unchecked immigration and schools that are now indoctrination centers, all the states will turn blue.

NOT HAPPENING with Trump on the ballot.

Does ANYONE really believe Biden is beating Trump anywhere it matters?

Trump will win in a LANDSLIDE!

If not, it won’t matter because we will be finished as a country. Literally. Unless we then win a real shooting war.

The country will break up into several various counties. At least two, maybe more. I’ll be moving (south or west).

Texas is not going blue anytime soon. Good on Ted for goading the Commies into wasting their time and money.

Texas is still a long way. Maybe eventually but look at the margins of every 2018 race other than Cruz. It is still comfortably red. A race here and there may be contested but not overall. Plus as other states like VA will collapse people like us will move there.

Ted Cruz and the republican party have encouraged, promoted, embraced illegal immigration for 40 years. Now they are sounding an alarm??

You’re presuming that people will still vote the same

Put the Stacey types in office, then see how many Dims and “Independents” move over to the GOP

See my Tagline for an example. I was the first of my family to leave the Dims, because I didn’t agree with their agenda rhetoric and actions. My parents soon followed.

Personal safety, war, education, taxes, economy, $$$ matters

Now, they’re 1000x worse And that’s NOT an exaggeration

Texas and the South used to be solid blue Jimmy Carter won Texas, for God’s sake

When the Dims F everything up, you still think Whites and Latinos and Asians won’t change their stripes

People vote with their feet and their wallets. Donald Trump’s election was a result of Obama’s screwing things up

As radical as these bastards are, just watch if they win and the pushback thereto. I’ve long thought that the LIVs, soccer moms, ‘swing voters” et al will see the light ONLY after things are Fup

Move west...the south is lost...again.

As for dividing the country? Right down the Mississippi...the enslaved East and the Patriot West. Perhaps an earthquake will take care of the problem west of Interstate 5.

Very few of empires in history lasted more than 225 years.
The American system based on freedom and capitalism may be nearing it’s natural demise.

They pulled the same crap in 2016. Polls showing Hillary tied in TX, ahead in GA, ahead in AZ...TX and GA were blowouts for Trump. AZ was closer, but Trump still took it.

There’s an ebb and flow to these things. I think we’re a little behind at the moment, but that is FINE. Election day is what this is all about. Being ahead now means nothing. Trying to discern who is ahead now with all the fake polls is also damn near impossible.

Relax, my friend...it’s only the survival of western civilization we’re talking about. :-)

Trump WON Texas by 807,000 votes in 11/16.

He will win Texas comfortably again.

Latino’s like Trump.

Yeah, that’s why Cruz pulled his punches and let the skateboard kid nearly unseat him, to prove his strategery or something.

Trump should hold Texas this time around, but 2024 on is rather doubtful.
