Abbott ten points ahead, Hispanics break even, Trump behind where he was two years ago.

This race is tighter than it should be; but, the trend in Texas is our friend.

So Cornyn types have no issue w/ Abbott. But will they want to act as spoilers for the Senate? Doubtful.

They use this pipe dream as a big money raiser. Donations pour in from all over the country and the world in the vain hope they can turn Texas blue. Every election, lately.

That said we don’t want their wishes to become reality. Let’s make it our goal to win by unprecedented margins.

Yep I remember when Ted Cruz went on Hannity begging for money saying that polling shows him down 3 points in his election..he won by what, 8 points, it was never close

If I recall, Bebo and Abortion Barbie were both ahead in the media polls at this point in the election cycles.

Millions of Texas voters do not yet realize Talarico wants to destroy the Oil & Gas and Beef industries. Paxton will make sure they know by November.

Also Cruz seems to be focused on everything EXCEPT Texas.
His lack of donations should have indicated he was NOT listening to TX voters.
Paxton, nearly all by himself has changed the direction of TX they have been on since LBJ.

Winning in TX by 8 points is getting too close for comfort.

Considering the ever growing indoctrination of socialism/communism/marxism...and voter fraud, we all should be concerned.

Talafreako is going to continue to sink the more the voters get to know him. Its difficult to imagine someone less suited to appeal to Texans.

My sister was telling me yesterday that in Texas there are over 200 mosques that have been built because Abbott has a relationship with Pakistan and takes their money..basically turning Texas into a Muslim hotbed is that true..I couldnt believe it, but she read me multiple articles about it for yrs he’s been taking Pakistan money why would he do that, to turn Texas Muslim? That’s why yesterday on Newsmax they were saying how Texas is turning Muslim its full of mosques

I don’t know about the “sand people” thing (or the “deport all immigrants thing), but isn’t it the other way around?

MAGA got too caught up in the war last month. Immigration got put on the back burner.
