Texas could have had zero electricity from renewable sources and it still wouldn’t have prevented the gas plants from freezing up and the coal and nuke plants from shutting down and the lights from going out. None of the electricity infrastructure was prepared to cope with the weather that they got.

This is true and accurate. Completely. They're idiots and were unprepared.

The very idea that "Texas, Energy Capitol of the WORLD" was brought to its knees in four days of cold weather because TX Republicans were somehow tricked into adding wind power generators to their power grid is absurd.

Texas Democrats will make plenty of political hay with this. Pretty soon Texas could be politically bluer than most Texans' lips and fingertips are right about now.
