NOTE: The OP does not endorse this headline. I could care less what some British paper thinks; we stopped caring about their opinion in or around 1776.

Not sure why people can't see it happening. Literally pull up the election maps from the last 20 years and it's clear.

Major metropolis's in TX are bigly growing.
Bigly growth = libtard paradise

Biden won't win TX, I agree, but 20 years down the road it's a certainty unless we get our shite together.

That is assuming that as Hispanics and young people get older and more affluent, they do not become conservatives. that is a faulty assumption.

They called it a Democratic state instead of a Democrat state as if to imply Republican states aren't democratic ones.

And that is assuming Latinos will turn left. Maybe the first generation, but the second and third generations will learn to become conservative to conserve their traditions and vote accordingly. However the Rs have to continue to appeal to them.

By then, enough time will have passed that liberal filth that ruined the state of California will have exited, and a bunch of baws will have matriculated in and fixed shite and turned CA back red.

I don't border CA though... I border TX. So, please Texas baws and bawette, keep your state red. Very red. Give Austin independent autonomy if needed.

Possibly, but I think a lot of 2nd and 3rd generation Hispanics are going to start voting conservative. I've posted this on here several times, but I'm on a board with a Mexican man who routinely makes social media posts condemning BLM making fun of the Dems. The charter school we are on the board of is predominately Hispanic, and they are not big fans of being forgotten by the Dems in favor of BLM and riots.

I hope their financial advice is better than the political understanding.

"Shifting demographics" means that they've imported enough illegal Mexicans and out-of-state shitbirds to affect our elections. We need a wall around the whole state, not just the southern border.

I'm thinking at least 12 percent or more, My longterm fear is massive voter fraud in dem controlled cities in the future. Something weird happened in the Beto/Cruz race 2 years ago. When abortion barbie lost to Abbott by 20 plus, I thought Cruz would cruise to victory also.
