Crane was golfing buds with Obama when Barry was in office. He did, however, attend the 2017 Worlds Championship ceremony at the White House with Trump there so he is at least comfortable with leaders from both parties.
As conservative as Texas is overall, most of the big cities are dominated by Democrats and Houston is among them. They previously had a lesbian mayor and now have a black mayor who seems over his head.
Yes, according to Wikipedia, “Crane is a supporter of the Democratic Party and frequently golfs with former U.S. President Barack Obama.”. So, I doubt the reaction to the president would be any different here than it was in Washington.
True, but most big city Democrats cannot afford World Series tickets. The corporate suburbanites are buying most of those tickets and they are not Lefties.
