It’s been clear for awhile now that she’s more interested in being a celebrity than a public servant.
Most of my black friends and acquaintances from Texas (I use to live in Austin), refuse to support Talrico because he beat Crockett. How anyone would rather Paxton is beyond me. I’d rather genital warts over Paxton.
He didn’t steal it from her. He beat her in the primary fair & square, and she knows it, and even acknowledged it, and threw her support behind him.
Here’s what you tell your friends: Crockett would have won the primary any other year, but this was the year that a once-in-lifetime candidate like Talarico emerged. She had bad timing, it happens all the time. He’ll probably go on to win, which will be amazing. The governor’s seat may go to a Dem, too. It hasn’t been an easy path for Talarico, and it would have even an even less easy path to victory for Crockett.
Cruz will be running for re-election in 2030, and after Talarico has been in there for a while and showing what Dems can do, Crockett will have an easier chance at beating Cruz.
As politicians go, Crockett is considered young, and has a long career ahead of her. She can wait to beat Cruz in 2030, and she’ll have a stronger chance at it by then.
It’s disappointing that she won’t get her chance this time, but politics is a long, slow grind, and you have to be patient. Your friends have to take heart that by voting for Talarico, they are pushing the country in a better direction for future candidates like Crockett.
If none of that works, don’t let your friends vote for Paxton, he will literally murder them if he gets the chance. Better they don’t vote at all.
Preaching to the choir. I agree with everything you wrote except that I don’t think Crockett has a chance at the senate seat.
I wish transphobes like Talarico were once in a life time.
Funny how he and other democrats waited until after the primaries to start airing these views.

Seeing as you looked at my profile, you would have seen the link to my year old sh.itjust.works account.
Likewise you would have seen that I post all news relating to trans people, that includes all the shit Trump and republicans are doing, Moms for Liberty, as well as Labor in the UK, JK Rowlings anti-trans agenda, conservatives in Canada complaining about rainbow paint on the ground, right wing politicians in Australia pushing anti-trans rights bills. Articles from continental Europe to South America or Asia. Oh and the few posts I am able to make where I highlight positive things the Democrats are doing for trans people.
Funny how just because your team has people also assaulting trans people that you ignore all this and try to create a lie that I’m a Russian bot or whatever trash you’re on about.

That’s some really short sighted bullshit right there.
Why would they make a choice like that? What are they being propagandized with? Or did they come up with it themselves?
This isn’t sports teams, you’re not being asked to root for the team that beat your team in the playoffs, goddamn. Grow the fuck up.
Out of curiosity, how do they justify not voting for Talarico and thus giving Paxton a better shot?
Never anything concrete. It’s always something about not trusting someone saying the same nice things song and dance before abandoning the black community as soon as they are elected. They just don’t want another white man’s empty promises, which I get, but I fully expect Paxton to deliver on his promises, and his promises are most foul.
That’s why she took IDF propaganda money as well. Her banking Isreal is why she lost. Just because she can grill people during a hearing doesn’t mean she’s a good politician.
Brown pleaded guilty in 2009 to felony assault against his then girlfriend, music star Rihanna. He also awaits sentencing in a UK incident in which prosecutors alleged he hit a music producer over the head with a bottle. Brown pleaded guilty to a charge of “affray” in that case.
I think there’s no need to keep saying “allege” when he’s already pleaded guilty.
He’s never stopped beating women. He’s just beating and abusing poor women now. So no one cares.
Also punched out a guy in the street in D.C.; don’t know how he pleaded on that one.
Two members of BTS went to the CB/Usher show in Toronto; that did NOT go over well with many of their fans.
Why the fuck would she give an a award to a piece of shit like Chris Brown.
So many Whys. Why is Usher performing with him? Why does anyone play with him? Why does he have management? Why isn’t he being thrown off tours for his behavior? Why are people buying tickets to see him?
But yeah, Jasmine, we respect you, so why are you looking the other way on this guy? You would have been better off saying that you can’t support anyone with a long documented history of violent domestic abuse, and been a hero.
Or, you could even have said nothing at all.
109% agree except for one thing: respecting Jasmine Crockett.
She’s a zionist enabler of abusers posing as a progressive champion of the people. Always has been.
I got one how. How is he able to do stadium tours? People love this guy.
Good. It is a stupid decision.
I guess Talarico is just the wrong color to get a pass for beating a black woman.
Jesus Christ
She’s always been a narcissistic shithead.
If you want a good laugh, read up on how the Texas GOP ran a campaign targeting her supporters so they would gas her up to run for Senate, because the Texas GOP knew even Ken Paxton could smoke her.
