  • Trump won Texas by 9% in 2016 and the population only grows about 1.3% per year and that includes children and other non voters so the fact that he is down in the polls by up to 5%, according to the latest Univ. of Texas poll, has little to do with population growth. Trump is also down in Florida and Arizona. Apparently some Trumpsters are honest enough with themselves to admit to the fact that they've made a big mistake.

          It's like a child who heard someone praised for saying something smart one time who just keeps repeating that same thing over and over. RWNJs want all the praise without doing any of the work of understanding the matters about which they opine.

          I guess ODB is done trying to "prove" whatever his point was about why Texas is in play in 2020.

            Actually, the topic of the thread is Michael Flynn, not polls.

              Texas is in play because demographics there are changing. It isn't rocket science.

                    Just like where I live you have a large number of people moving in to escape high taxes, failing infrastructure and the effects of encroaching government but then vote for the same %#@%$ that brought about those problems in the first place.

                    What was that definition for insanity again?

                    I'm always still in trouble again

                      So your response is that Texas is only in play because it's permanently going blue. You sure pwned me, bro.

                        Yes. It's just another in a long line of TrumpOCD reactions. It has nothing to do with Trump. Pointing out your and others' TrumpOCD is like shooting fish in a barrel.

                          All I really care is that Trump and his supporters are out of power. The exact reason isn't very important to me. That it is due to demographic reasons is only more likely to lock in those gains long term.

                          But I am curious, your article from 3 months ago said Texas wouldn't go blue. Now it is clearly in danger of going blue. How can that be since demographic changes can't possibly explain that change over a 3 month period?

                            I still don't think it's in any real danger of going blue yet. I think the polls are just wrong.
