Did you see how the “propositions” did? They were all pretty much no-brainers.

Wow, that very first sentence has:
* insurgent wing
* expensive
* vengeful
* punishing
* hard-right

What about “Our Democracy”? Shouldn’t the writer be extolling how “Our Democracy” is alive, vibrant and WORKED in Texas instead of packing the very first sentence with emotional, negative pejoratives?

Interesting choice of a description.

Insurgent:
1. Rising in revolt against a government or other established authority.
2. Rebelling against the leadership of a political party.
3. Rising in opposition to civil or political authority, or against an established government; insubordinate; rebellious.

Yes, the hate just leaps off the page. See Tagline.

don’t forget “hard-right”, i.e., the appellation applied by the leftist fascist media to non-RINO, actual conservative Republicans ...

Good point.

I never hear anyone in the mainstream media call the “Squad” the “far left” wing of the democrats...

Please please, President Trump listen to Matthew Boyle, what his advice is to you as far as winning the blue-collar workers in Virginia etc. Please heed his advice. He made a lot of sense and if you want to beat FJB and his hoard of powerful billionaire’s money, and the mediapukes this is the way! he is from the Washington Bureau chief breitbart news, Matthew Boyle. Please, President Trump please listen to the advice he’s giving you if you want to beat the DC swamp along with the powerful rats supporters who are going to come at you like a speeding train in the coming months….advice:You have to go around them! EXCELLENT ADVICE to win this election. SAVE AMERICA 🇺🇸

Would like to have seen Phelan defeated instead of a run-off. One more hurdle to jump.

“... the insurgent wing of the Republican Party”

I think the term is “Republican Base”, otherwise RINOs would have easily been re-elected.

I guess that makes us Deplorable Ultra MAGA Insurgents. That has a nice ring to it.
