Contrast Republican Texas and Democrat Louisiana.
Says it all.
I lived in both States - the difference is like night and day.
Neighbor helping neighbor in the South ... “Save your Confederate money, boys; the South shall rise again!” Thank you to our neighbors from the East.
This article is about Louisana helping Texas
It’s not about GOP versus democrat
A facile argument that meant zip till 1980 or so
Before that both states had been democrat since reconstruction and for damn good reason in 1870
This notion that the GOP means anything anymore should be obvious right about now that it’s poppycock
The only decent folks around tend to be GOP
But the GOP are treacherous to their base unlike the Dems
Louisana is three times as black as Texas which means it’ll always have a butt load of lefties
Whites in both states baring the idiosyncratic coonasses are pretty close culturally
Coonasses in Texas btw
