One of the individuals named by the Texas Democrat estimates that the lawmaker's actions have spurred donors to give more than $1 million toward Trump's reelection effort in recent days.

R. H. Bowman told the Washington Examiner his fellow members of "Texas 44," as the San Antonio-based donors refer to themselves, have been on a fundraising frenzy since Castro tweeted about them on Monday.

"My phone’s been lit up for two days with calls from many of the Texas 44 and others of our friends here in Texas who are outraged by Castro’s comments," Bowman said. "It looks like another million dollars is now headed to support the Trump 2020 campaign from those of us who were targeted, and other Texans, including Hispanics, incidentally, whose resolve to support [the president] is only strengthened by this personal attack."

As it should be.

Ocasio Castro de la Santa Anna should've know you don't piss off Texans.

Remember San Jacinto

This doesn't amount to anything as long as the Dems are allowed to import illegals, to manufacture votes, and to cover up for treason at the FBI, and allow witnesses to Democrat pedophilia to be "suicided" while in Federal custody.

Barr swallows.

I love American and especially Texans. You push them they get right in your face and push back. Strong genes from proud and strong ancestors.

Texas HAS to stay Red. The nation depends on it. It is a literal battleground state. The Democrats know it, and are playing the long game. Do NOT go wobbly...

Thank God.

The nightmare possibility was democrats could intimidate our stronger people.

It's bad enough that citizens in middle class jobs are afraid to admit they're Trump supporters... People with families to support often can't take the risk of being fired or ostracized...

Scary times... I'm thankful these leaders - our team - was able to stand up to democrat thugs.

Castro attacked HIS OWN constituents - when his JOB is to help and represent them before the might of the Federal government.

He needs a beating, and needs to resign.

You’re right. Texas MUST stay Red.
