Cruz says Texas is in play

Post by TC Talks » Thu Oct 29, 2020 2:48 pm

Here's some more good news that Democrats are leary about and Republicans don't believe.
“We have a fight” in Texas, Mr. Cruz said he told Mr. Trump, warning him that the country’s second-largest electoral prize was in play and that he should take it seriously. In an interview, Mr. Cruz said he expected the president to win here — but that he also saw the same surging liberal energy in his state that had propelled Beto O’Rourke to a closer-than-expected defeat against him two years ago.

“There’s no doubt that it’s a real race,” said the senator, echoing a similar case Mr. O’Rourke made to Mr. Biden earlier this month in their own phone conversation.

But it’s not clear if Mr. Trump or Mr. Biden fully believe it.

They may be on opposite sides of the partisan divide, but Texas Republicans and Democrats alike believe the long-awaited moment has arrived: The state is a true presidential battleground, and either candidate could prevail next week.

Although a Democrat has not carried Texas since 1976, recent public and private polls suggest a highly competitive race, with some surveys showing Mr. Biden up narrowly and others showing Mr. Trump enjoying a small lead.

It looks like Biden will be a likely victor in Texas. I wonder how the Senate race will pan out?

He makes shit up. For fucks sake, he said he was moving to France when Trump won last time. Has Traverse City moved to France?
Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

It is Cruz saying it though. I am guessing it winds up 50-46% Trump.

If Trump loses Florida, North Carolina, Texas or Georgia he is done without question...

Texas will be a 1-2 point Trump win. You should take that as a terrible omen for your orange idol.

Anyone else ponder that Cruz is starting to do a moonwalk away from The Donald? And starting to posture for a run in four years?
