5. NOW they panic?!

Maybe if they had made good and helpful laws to the Texans living there -- not just the oil and infodata rich-- they wouldn't have to worry. But most of the R's in office right now down there are actual criminals, even adjudicated as such. But why should that matter? They just emulate their lord and master, trump.

I lived in San Antonio and then Austin for over 25 years. But it was before GW Bush took over. When Cisneros was mayor (I think I remember correctly), and we had an excellent female governor in office who really cared about all Texans. My SIL and BIL moved back there to Seguin to retire. SIL was born and raised in San Antonio, always wanted to move back to retire. Now I worry about her as much as I would if she were here in this christianist state with me.
