Yes, Texas did vote for that. Haha, Red states suffering is funny.

Whether or not they did we all exist under the same atmosphere.

I know not everyone's guilty, but let's be real. Anyone still living in Texas after having a near decade to see the writing on the wall to get their shit together and leave (and I don't mean something as arduous as immigrating, I mean literally just moving across the state border) kind of only has themselves to blame.

It's ground zero for Trump Administration neo-conservatism [fascism]. Genuinely, what do they expect?

There are folks who are caring for elderly parents who themselves can't or won't move. Similarly there are folks caring for sick friends and relatives. There are folks who don't have the resources to get out of the state while at the same time supporting their minor children. There's no need to place blame. Better to look for solutions.

Texas is a big state with a large number of interior groups and cultures. Also, go where, exactly?

Is everyone in Montrose supposed to pick up and move to LA, the city Trump is currently telling to bite the curb?
