Texas May Cost Trump 2020 (Texas turning purple?)

"The irony regarding historical political party strength is that Texas has elected more Democrats at both the state and national level, than California has.

In the entire history since Texas joined the Union? Including the years when Texans would not vote for the GOP because of Reconstruction? The number of Dems elected fifty years ago is irrelevant. Your post is misleading, but I don't think you did that intentionally.

===================================================================

The data is for Texas since 1846, and California since 1849.

Yes, but Texas Democrats in 1960 were totally different from those of today, and it’s absurd to pretend it is the same party.

Partner, Texas will go for President Trump and we have way to many Illegal Aliens voting in Texas and we will put a stop to this nonsense since these folks that vote illegally will be sent back to Mexico never allowed to be in the U.S. ever again.

Partner, u ain't lying!

All we are hearing is that the Rat party has become the Socialist Party of the U.S. and this Socialist tag is on their foreheads for all of us to see.

The infantile MSM just does not get it!

Thanks.

I am not claiming that immigration from socialist-leaning societies (including California) don't have a serious influence on TX elections. In fact, Mexico lost Texas in the 1830s to revolutionaries whose families had emigrated from mainly the USA.

I think "cultural flipping," combined with "help" from leftist US citizens, is a real threat. But if Texas eventually turns purple or blue, the Dem ideology will not be the same as that of the earlier party with the same name.

You are correct. With tens of thousands of illegal rats voters pouring over the border every month it’s just a matter of time before Texas turns and once Texas turns it’s truly over. We can thank traitors like Ryan and Roberts for killing the last chance to stop it.

Over my dead body and empty 357.

True but TX voted almost exclusively dim up till 1980 and has been R since, Kali is almost the exact opposite

[Sam Gamgee]

Yep, very sick.

[TheConservativeTejano]

Great points! I agree with ya 100%.

Partner, The Rat party will be known as the "Socialist Workers Party of America" and they will have a small amount of folks.

The elementary schools, junior high schools, and High Schools themselves are changing the minds of our kids in schools across the country. Parents should have a lot more say so or control in what they are teaching in the these schools.

Partner, also, we have had the worst POTUS's ever the past 28 years before President Trump came along who is a non-politician.

I would have to think long and hard before referring to obama as President.
