Native born Texan who stands for love, fairness, and logic. If you tell me, "if you don't like it here, then move", you tell me you're afraid of what's coming.
I'm almost 50.
I grew up in a Texas where you could celebrate conservative values, and equally choose a different path, and you weren't trapped by either. When education was valued, not feared. You had genuine hope and promise.

@abc13houston I'd love to see an analysis of past presidents who made statements like "we" and "never". After all, he has to vacate the White House in 31 months. Kinda weird to make statements implying a house you're renting will never change.
@fuckyourfeels24@abc13houston So anyone who was repeating the promises he made while running for office like they were ironclad guarantees are morons with brainrot as well?
