Yes,I can see Arizona going Rat. Too close to Kalifornia and too close to the border.

I am seeing it happen in AZ too.

North Carolina is under assault as well from New Yorkers. It’s almost like a coordinated military operation.

If we lose Texas, we lose the country. At least in terms of The Electoral College. Demographics killed us in Virginia, NC, CA, and will eventually in Texas. Illegal voting and Illegals voting killed us as well.

The GOP has done nothing at all to fire up Republican voters. Any and all losses are the direct result of their own inaction and cowardice in the face of the Socialist/CommunistdemocRAT enemy.

If the Left moves from beating up republicans, ala Antifa, to outright killing them, I wonder if the Republicans would wake up? Probably not.

The only thing that can save this country from turning into a socialist led brave new world utopia of horse manure is for all Americans to know the truth which is radical islamists along with china, russia, and south american marxists are plottin and plannin to invade America, and it would be in our best interest to stop flying around in partisan politic games created by the fake news media and get serious about UNITING as AMERICANS and do the right thing to defend our nation against these evil forces that are aligning against us. Trump should start staying this fact in his speeches.

That's because it is.

While some keep screaming 'fake news' Democrats are working to turn America blue. It's a coordinated strategy.

Blue America

Of course not. The GOPe will declare antifa a "terrorist group of peace" and pass laws to punish regular Americans for "triggering" them via various forms of hate speech, such as waving an American Flag, or stating that their are only two sexes.

Yes.

The Russians and Chinese will also fight in space against us.

Republicans need to be out there telling Texans how the Democrats will make their oil and gas jobs disappear. Double their electricity costs. Transgenderize their children. Allow criminals to prey on them. (Hope they’re bright enough to name some more.) After they’re done this, THEN let them whine about demographics.

White California voters are reliably Republican.

In 2016, they supported Romney over Obama by 53-45.

I am certain that a majority of all out-of-state white voters who move to Texas are Republicans.

Problem is....

Just 41.5% of Texas residents are non-Hispanic whites.

48.5% of Texas residents are non-white, and none of the major ethnic groups are majority Republican.

However, a significant percentage of Texas non-whites are not eligible to vote, so, in 2020, the state will still lean Republican.

The plan is to bring in enough “marginalized people of color” to lock up the free $hit vote. GA will probably lose the R governorship soon. I was surprised when a dim rep won our district, no thanks to RINO do-nothing Karen Handel. Demographics is destiny. Build the wall.

Why even have an election, according to the woefulness on this thread? We have been branded ‘red” by the media and brainwashed to use their term for the cool kids, “blue, blue, blue.”

So I guess in Arizona, we are going to vote for Elizabeth Warren, pay our increased taxes, lay down our guns, and sing and wave on our way to the gallows according to some here. What defeatism....

Seen this in Virginia where the boom in Northern Virginia, NoVa, is turning the state Blue. GOP has been shut out of statewide races for past couple of election cycles.

Totally different. The boom in NoVa was due to GOVERNMENT growth, not private sector. Under Obama, FedGov grew like a weed which brought a lot of liberals to DC suburbs.

That's not happening in Texas. One could argue that illegals could bring a sea change to Texas but it is more likely vote fraud in Houston, Dallas, Austin and San Antonio that will be responsible - if it happens. For now, Texas still has the GOP in all their statewide offices and control of the legislature.

Another week and another “Texas is turning BLUE” post.

How about some facts.

Greg Abbott, a REPUBLICAN, won in 2018 by 1,109,581 votes. He beat someone named LUPE VALDEZ. Abbott is a solid conservative who trounced a Latino.

Cruz beat O’Rourke by 214,921 votes despite Cruz suffering for his treatment of Trump in 2016 AND the fighting the most favorable conditions for a Democrat in years.

In 2016 Trump beat Clinton by 813,684 votes.

IF everything claimed in all of these articles about Texas were reality, how did Trump win Florida in 2016 and DeSantis and Scott win in 2018?

Someday, maybe, Texas will turn Blue. It won’t be in 2020.

Its what their corporate donors want. They want Trump out of the White House.

Apples and watermelons. NoVA economic “boom” is due to the dramatic expansion of FedGov jobs under Obama.
