Well, Donald Trump sounds like he's worried we're about to flip Texas.

And... And... I...

I think it's important to talk about why all these attacks are coming.

There is another war in the Middle East.

There is a cost of living crisis that is crushing the middle class in this country.

There is a secret pedophile ring and no one has been prosecuted.

and so the people responsible for all that are now trying to distract us with the same old tired culture wars i mean trump's own press secretary couldn't rule out a military draft for their new war in iran so i think the question is what do the american people care more about culture wars or actual wars do they care more about pronouns or prices

I think the reason these attacks are coming is they are afraid of the movement that we're building in Texas.

Working people coming together across all these divisions to take on this broken, corrupt political system.

And this is what the people in power always do.

They divide working people by party, by race, by gender, by religion, by culture.

So we don't notice that they are picking our pockets.

that they're closing our public schools, which is happening all over the state of Texas.

They're gutting our healthcare.

We've seen premiums skyrocket for working families in this state.

And they are cutting taxes for themselves while they raise taxes on all of us.

So this is, this is literally the oldest strategy in the world, divide and conquer.

And I think people in this state and in this country, I think we're done being divided.

I think we're done being pitted against each other.

We're done being played.
