Team Trump needs to pay more attention to Texas
Growing Hispanic population means long-term challenge for the GOP
I am SPECULATING here,based on tidbits of info learned from so-called "Mexicans" I knew in the army,my neighbors when I lived in a Mexican neighborhood (slum) in Denver,and the various "Mexicans" I have known casually or worked with.
I am GUESSING that the vast majority of Mexicans that moved north to Texas in the last 50 years or so moved north for more job opportunities and a better life for them and their families.
I realize in the last 20-25 years or so the internationalist leftists like Soros and the Catholic Church,USA,have recruited more to move north and the Catholic Church has even made big bucks from teaching "English as a second language",how to apply for jobs,get bank accounts,how to get welfare,free housing,free utilities,free food,free clothing,and every other type of class you can imagine.
Still,there HAS to be a fairly large percentage of the children of those people working their asses off to do better for themselves and their children.
You just don't hear about these people because unlike the radical leftists,they are not holding protest marches and screaming for more "free stuff". They are too busy working and going to school to be able to earn more comfortable lives. It's the radicals who get all the press because those are who the press is promoting,and frankly,because they are the ones making all the noise.
"The squeaky wheel gets the grease".
Confession time,here. I have two nephews who are what most people,including one of them,would call "Mexicans".
The older brother is the stereotypical "Cholo" loser. Was in his late 20's when I met him,had never had a job,and "earned" his living by selling drugs,stealing,and impregnating welfare moms so he could have a free place to eat and sleep. The day I met him it was maybe 10 AM,and he was already standing out on the sidewalk,wearing his bandanna,his flannen shirt with only the top button buttoned (so he could easily reach his "gat"),and drinking beer whine whining about how "the white man just won't give the brown man a break!"
I look more like a Mexican than he does. I have the "Indian eyes",and am probably a little darker.
The younger brother actually does look like a Mexican.
Last I heard,he was a brain surgeon working in a California hospital.
They both had the same mother and father. The father was a first-generation American whose family immigrated up from Mexico,and he worked his ass off his whole life and have a VERY successful auto collision repair shop that he started from scrap.
Their mother,my half-sister,was crazier than a crap-house rat. It would almost make your head hurt to talk with her. Her ancestors all originally came from Scotland or Ireland.
One problem,as always, is that those of us who are removed from the "scene" only get to see and hear what the media tells and shows us,and the media is always more interested in sending messages than reporting facts.
Judging by what we see and hear from the media,the radical left is on the march to victory,and taking over everywhere!
It just ain't so. Yeah,they are in control of SF,LA,Portland,Seattle,and a few other large cities,but that does NOT mean they are a majority. There are a HELL of a lot of peo

Listen to the media,and "learn" that
the radical left is in charge,and resistance is fruitless because we are outnumbered. Look at the events in places like LA,SF,Portland,Seattle,Minneapolis,NYC,Chicago,etc,etc,etc and see the proof for yourself!
That's just what the left WANTS us to believe so that we don't bother to vote.
Yeah,there are some places where it is a lost cause. Cities like Austin,LA,SF,Portland,Seattle,Detroit,Chicago,
etc,etc,etc.
That does NOT mean those STATES are a lost cause. The rural population outnumbers the urban population in most areas,and all they have to do is step forward and vote.
The thing is that IF we were all to vote,our votes will still outnumber theirs. Even including the dead people and the imaginary people who always vote Dim.
