    The thread lives.

    The thing I don't get about TX Republicans is that they're so - personally repulsive?

    Like other than living in a 51% R state where they control the election rules, I don't get how Ted Cruz ever wins. Same for Paxton Patrick etc

    The Ted Cruz self humiliation is that Angela Alsobrooks is another more attractive human being in the Senate than he is (not hard but still, Larry Hogan was not handsome)

    Oh it's cope, though I didn't see Cruz losing.

    Texas is a bridge too far for Democrats.

    It's why local elections are important. Take away GOP power to gerrymander and decide poling locations and hours.

    Yeah but Texas - I don't know, there's just too many people willing to sign on to MAGA - that stuff all helps, but I'd say the same thing we see with the national election - even if you do everything right, from policy, to $$$, to ground game and the other side runs a dead husk of a man who racks up self owns - that gets you a coin flip.

    It's hard to dislodge red votes.

    Oh I'm not saying that it will get done. I'm just pointing out why local elections are important. I think the biggest issue for TX voters in local elections is apathy.

    I hate Tucker Carlson but he pretty much owned Ted Cruz as the pandering ******* that he is in his interview with him. It's hilarious.

    I can’t bear to watch it, like watching MTG and Boebert make out. (Barf)

    Can you give us the highlights?

    You have to watch it. It's comical how Carlson undressed Ted. Ted tried to deflect and accuse Carlson who is the master of that tactic. He tried to outjerk the master jerk and lost. Haha


    We know Ted is bought by Israel and Tucker is bought by the Russians and they are going at. This is the rift that could really bring down the GOP. Unfortunately, the US could be collateral damage.

    TLDR, please. I don't want to watch these narcissists spar over who's the biggest douchebag.

    Ten years ago, Cruz learned that you don't need facts to be in the Republican Party, and he figured out how to navigate those waters successfully. For the last decade, he has been spreading nonsense that he knows will appeal to MAGA supporters. He was caught off guard when Tucker asked a legitimate question that required more than a talking point to answer. His brain was spinning trying to find a way to blame the population of Iran on Trans Athletes.
