Carly Fiorina disagrees with this.
She pretty much told us this when she trashed Sarah Palin recently
That’s probably a good sign although I’m suspicious of the TX Republican Establishment. I think they’re good at bluff and bluster like Rick Perry’s putting the guard on the border right before last year’s election to look good and Abbott’s ordering the monitoring of those military exercises and so on.
When Arizona’s legislature sent a religious freedom bill to then Republican Governor Jan Brewer the LGBT activists were in a fit along with John McCain and Mitt Romney, who tweeted against the bill. Brewer vetoed it.
Then we had the sinking of the religious freedom bills opposed by the LGBT activists in Indiana and Arkansas in late March this year with pressure from the big corporations pivotal.
This kind of legislation ends up in federal courts where TX will lose I suspect making it look like symbolic posturing.
I would have more faith in what the TX Republicans are doing if the political elites and business elites would come down on them for doing it.
