Texas is not as fucked as people think. In 2018, which is the closest approximation for what 2026 can be, Cruz only won by less than 3 points and the incumbent will likely lose to an extremely unpopular criminal AG in a bloody primary battle.

Bye bye Brian, it’ll be time to write your book soon.

I mean, having on all those shows talking about those issues isn’t really giving a pass. Mainers will decide on who they want for senate, but there are several other people in that race that I hope get a fair shake once their primary starts. Platner isn’t owed anything.

He paid lip service in the campaign, but has tried being a moderate shill ever since. I look forward to supporting a primary challenger in 2028

For the record, Fetterman was a mayor and Lt Governor before running for senator. And there are about 100 articles about the platner tattoo story, so I am not sure they are gining him a pass. Support who you want, but make rational arguments.

This feels like one of those games where we know early bow it is going to go 😩

I mean, he has been trying for years 😂 if he was capable of doing that, the war would have been over years ago.

He’s clearly shilling for adding a public option 😂

Nah

So many people that have never stepped foot in the state of Texas with a lot of feelings about what Texas Democrats should decide… this is why there is a primary, have patience.

I might hang myself if another commentator suggests that maybe another, more moderate candidate could have have won and that is the real lesson here 🤮

I don’t think Beto will run, but he has done more than anyone to unfuck Texas for Dems. Beyond getting closer than anyone ever dreamed in 2018 and again being a sacrificial lamb in 2020, he has been working to register democrats and build the state party while the DNC ignores the state.

He must have missed the memo about the purity test of experience in local government.
