The most infuriating thing about the Texas senate race is how Jasmine’s supporters are saying Talarico is a conservative in disguise, and insinuating that anyone who doesn’t support her is a fucking racist

Sometimes it does come across that way if they say she’s “loud” or “sassy” or something like that

One thing I think is unfair is that Crockett is criticized for her corporate donations while no one talks about the money Talarico got from Miriam Adelson

It was a one time donation to anyone who supported legalizing gambling in Texas as far as I’m aware 😭

But see I don’t think she’s electable and it’s not because of her race

My thing about her is that her national profile is her weakness in Texas specifically. They’re going to weaponize her time as co chair of Kamala’s campaign, a candidate who lost Texas by 14 points. I think being a federal representative from a deep blue district isn’t going to help either. Her brand she’s cultivated over the years is anti Trump, anti maga, and that’s going to hurt her. It’s going to hurt her not because we could flip those voters, but because we want them to stay home.

I’m suspicious of the pro-gambling lobby too ngl. If it’s not Adelson it’s probably DraftKings and FanDuel 😭

I fear there may be some truth to that, at least in the eyes of republicans. I knew when I saw Ken Paxton pick up on that Allred/Talarico racism thing that republicans want Crockett to win

But the H2H of Crockett vs Paxton is also basically tied
