Well, considering Mr. Gun Confiscation came within 3-points of beating Ted Cruz two-years ago, I’m not sure the answer to your question is reassuring.

Texas is trending blue, in a big way. If it weren’t for conservatives moving to the state (Cruz COMFORTABLY won voters in 2018 who weren’t born in Texas while losing native Texans to Beto O’Rourke), the state likely would have already turned blue.

The first generation Latinos - many of whom were born to illegal aliens parents - are killing the GOP in the state.

Matthew McConaughey criticizes Texas Gov. Abbott’s decision to lift mask mandate: ‘A little dumbfounded’

Texas native Matthew McConaughey is speaking out about Gov. Gregory Abbott’s decision to lift the state’s mask mandate as the ongoing coronavirus pandemic continues.

McConaughey stressed that wearing a face mask is “just this minor inconvenience” that can help save lives. He also suggested that it may not be the face-coverings so many around the country are taking issue with.

“I just want to remind, not only Texans, but everybody out there, it’s not the mask we’re afraid of, c’mon. It’s the word ‘mandate.’ Let’s not let the word ‘mandate’ get in the way of practical use of this little tool called a mask. It’s just a small inconvenience today for more freedom tomorrow,” McConaughey said.

With the understanding that its now Texans’ “choice” whether they wear masks or not to stop the spread of COVID-19, McConaughey implored “people around the world” to cover up.

Bush at 34%

This Bush 34% is why the GOP is useless.

Bozo the Rourke didn’t speak out publicly for gun control until he lost the Senate race.

The press covered up his talk of eating dirt, of feeding his wife a green baby turd, and of his fantasy story about wanting to run over kids in his car.

The press played quite a role in that.

>>“I’m like going come on, man – I’m not believing that you’re really scared of this little cotton thing,” the Oscar-winning actor and potential Texas gubernatorial candidate said in a recent appearance on “The Carlos Watson Show.”

It cuts down on breathing which is unhealthy.

It captures germs and keeps them in the vicinity of your face/mouth. How many times a day are you supposed to throw it away and replace it with a new one? This is for people who work in an office for 8 hours a day and have to take an hour “lunch break” at the site (9 hours total)?

It also shed particles into the wearer’s lung such that Canada, France, and Germany have put out big warnings about it.

So let’s damage our health to virtue signal.

Product Description
“This book is very tough.” - President Donald Trump

The Bush Crime Family smashes through the layers of lies and secrecy that have surrounded and protected our country's most successful political dynasty for nearly two centuries. New York Times bestselling author Roger Stone lashes out with a blistering indictment, exposing the true history and monumental hypocrisy of the Bushes. In Stone's usual “go for the jugular” style, this is a no-holds-barred history of the Bush family, comprised of smug, entitled autocrats who both use and hide behind their famous name. They got a long-overdue taste of defeat and public humiliation when Jeb’s 2016 presidential bid went down in flames.

Besides detailing the vast litany of Jeb’s misdeeds — including receiving a $4 million taxpayer bailout when his father was vice president as well as his startlingly-close alignment with supposed “enemy” Hillary Clinton — Stone travels back to Bush patriarchs Samuel and Prescott, right on through to presidents George H. W. and George W. Bush to weave an epic story of privilege, greed, corruption, drug profiteering, assassination, and lies. A new preface to this paperback edition features explosive information, including the family's Machiavellian plan to propel Jeb’s son George Prescott Bush forward as the family's next political contender.

The Bush Crime Family will have readers asking, “Why aren't these people in prison?”

Here he is in February of 2018 talking about how we shouldn't be selling AR-15s in this country.

Rep. Beto O'Rourke: I don't think we should be selling AR-15s in this country: Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate from Texas Beto O'Rourke says that AR-15s do not belong on U.S. streets or in schools.

It was part of his stump speach.

Beto O'Rourke talks gun control at Houston campaign events

It was definitely part of his campaign.

September 2019.

O’Rourke answered, “Hell, yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.”

Bit more vocal than “we shouldn’t be selling them”

We got the serious contender yesterday in Col. Allen West.

McConaughey can’t be taken seriously at all.

Among Texas voters, 36% self identify as Republican, with 30% identifying as Democrat, and 34% as neither.

Translation : 34% are more conservative than Republicans!!!
