Texas Goes Blue

[Rahul]

I don't think a lot of you naysayers grasp how much this anti-abortion legislation has hit the general population in Texas.

People I've known for years and years that never mentioned politics at all down here are really getting upset.

I've personally never voted for a Texas Governor. I didn't even know G W Bush was alive until he ran for president in 2000. Our former president George H. W. Bush had a son named George? And he was my state's governor? Never realized. Didn't care back then.

I've voting now. My white, raised Southern Baptist, in a tiny East Texas village ass is voting for every freaking election I can from now on. And it's not going to be any of the current radical Repubs that get my vote. They'll need major reforms before I even consider any of them, for any office.

I don't consider myself Dem or Repub. But I lean toward the Dems on most issues. And lately the Repubs have gone so batshit insane I'm just like, "Fuck you fucking fuckers."

The radical Repulicans just turned one of their most supportive demographic members against them in a violent manner. I used to be apathetic. Now I'm pissed.

And I'm not the only one. A shit-ton of Texans just woke up.
