I don't think so. If there's a place where the GOP can get latinos to become a PVI "EVEN" demo, it's Texas.

We also don't know how long the in-migration from more liberal states like California will continue.
And last but not least, the GOP as a whole will have to do better in metropolitan areas anyway in a country in which almost all population growth takes place there.
The party will be forced to make at least some adjustments in this regard, which should help them out a lot in states like TX, AZ or GA.


the gop is increasingly painting themselves into a place they cant change. texas will be blue in my lifetime. and super liberal areas will grow more purple as the liberals go too far. imo

Why? Can just drive or catch a quick flight to any neighboring state to get the abortion.

Haven't lived in Texas, but gun laws in Arizona are simple enough: Over 21, can carry concealed or open nearly anywhere, no permits needed. Any place, such as a court house or DMV that insists on no arms needs to provide weapons lockers to safely store your arms while on site.

Was never uncommon to be in a restaurant, and out of 50 people, 15-20 would be openly armed. And to be honest, that's not scary at all. If even one person draws a weapon and tries to start shit, they're going to catch 14 bullets. "An armed society is a polite society".

Most lefties understand this point within days of moving to such a state.

open carry has always been the less scary option to me, and i agree people seem to get acclimated fairly quickly.

Depends who Democrats run as their Candidate. Biden's approval has tanked, Kamala couldn't even survive a debate vs Gabbards in the primary. Also depends on his running mate.

Can he come back? Yes. Will he? He may try. Do I think he can win a Republican primary? On that, I'm not so sure. What won Trump the 2016 election was the Independent vote, not the Republican vote. I could see actual republicans voting for DeSantis over Trump easily.

Granted, I'm not a Republican, so my assessment of either party's candidates is merely an outside view.


He has a core, unequaled sick core doing like 20% of voters. This is a winning ticket for primaries.
Any republican trying to steal his base will be flamed. What a fantastic shit-show.
