Texas is not California. Texas is not a Blue State.

Legal immigrants don’t like illegal immigration.

That being said, the illegals that Biden flooded America with were not your usual hungry, tired, and poor looking to lift themselves out of a bad situation.
They were the worst of the worst who never would have been let in in the first place.

They are not the same as Jose with 3 jobs while paying for immigration services to become legal because they love America.


In 2026, 3.567 million Republicans voted in the election.

In 2024, 6.393 million Republicans voted in the election.

Over 2.8 million sat this one out.

Talifreako won with 1 million more votes. Midterms are always tough for the incumbents.

Trump’s direction on Iran won’t change, but take note, gas and diesel will come down.

When you understand how his position doesn’t alter, and yet those high prices supposedly cost him come down, you will understand that a global force had a great impact on an election that it couldn’t vote in, but could funnel money and influence into people who could.

I’ve never sat out a midterm, yet millions always do for some reason.

A lot of people are fed up with the grift, high prices, ridiculous construction projects, the war in Iran, how so many of our career military officers have been treated and our out of control deficit. It feels as if the country is in chaos, and people are tired of it.
So, the last 60 years.

I’ll give you a peek at the crystal ball, nothing will change. The excuses will be, we need more taxes to give to you better government programs. We need more control to protect you from all the bad things. Inflation is high because of the Republicans.

The top Dems (Talarico, Hinojosa) ran on unity and not division. Both of them in their speeches tonight mentioned how they are going to be the representative for all Texans, not just those that vote and look like them. Both have talked about keeping the Democratic Party accountable, because on party rule has hurt Texans. I think that resonates.


This is a lie and you know it. Even Biden and Obama made similar statements and then proceeded to be two of the most divisive presidents in US history. It's all lip service.

The demographics completely null your post.

The democrats told us they would go after their political opponents if they won. They constantly use the power of government to silence conservatives. But they're really going to represent both sides this time, y'all.

Democrats won because most people are functionally retarded with memories that don't persist beyond yesterday. This quote is a prime example of that.

Well, gee willikers, this certainly is something new!

Get off your feelz and have some principles.



I've had strong principles for decades, which is why I largely ignore all politicians. I'm not naive about Democrats and don't give them carte blanche. I tend to think both parties are guilty of getting weighed down by special interest BS and ignore tackling real issues like 40 trillion dollar deficits.

My business and personal income has been negatively affected by both parties. I'm fed up.

No, they don't. Texas still doesn't have more people who identify Democrat than Republican. 2024 showed it and so will 2028.

Mid-terms and party in-fighting are why Paxton and Abbott lost.

We didn't have that issue in Arkansas and every Red candidate won easily, even in a mid-term.

So you elected a bunch of progressive f****** who want to tax your f****** a** off. Who wants your little girls to see dicks in their locker rooms who want you to use pronouns? What the f*** kind of logic is that?


I recommend taking a break from social media, or trying to modify your algorithm.

And you think voting blue is going to change that?


The Fed sets monetary policy, but it is a fact that key U.S. economic indicators—such as real GDP growth, job creation, stock market returns and unemployment rate changes—have statistically performed better under Democratic presidents than under Republican presidents in the post-World War II era. The country does best when there is balance of power and both parties work together and check one another.

I'm a moderate on most issues and like balance of power.
