I can't help but laugh at these Republican ads here in Texas attacking James Talarico and Gina Hinojosa for everything from how much land China owns in the state to higher property taxes — when Republicans have completely run the state for nearly three decades. And that's not an exaggeration. A Democrat hasn't won a statewide race in Texas since 1994, and the last time Democrats had any power in the state legislature was 2002. Which means that everything they're trying to attack these two Democrats for is literally the result of what Republicans have passed or allowed to happen in Texas, considering they've been in full control of this state for nearly 30 years. All the while, as Ken Paxton tries to slander Talarico, with Republicans trying to question his "masculinity," and Greg Abbott keeps pushing lies about Hinojosa, neither Republican has the courage to get on a stage and debate either of their Democratic opponents. Because nothing says "we're proud of our record as Republicans" quite like trying to blame the party that hasn't had any power in the state for nearly three decades for issues your party voted to approve, while being too big of cowards to debate the Democrats they claim are "dangerous" for Americans. How anyone can vote for these Republican frauds is absolutely mind-boggling.
