After watching Judge Lina Hildago of Houston speak

This lady has a very good future in politics. She speaks so well , and has the intellect to do whats needed in this crisis, without Abbott undermining her making things a lot worse. Abbott will never win an election again for his actions making this disaster worse. Her future on the other hand will be very ,very good from what I've seen. She's been right , while abbott has listened to trump.

in 2018. Repukes blamed straight ticket voting and wailed and threw tantrums using her to whine about STV. She has demonstrated that she is a competent, purposeful leader in a state led by trumphumpers. She drives the bigots crazy down here.
