Texas Democratic U.S. Senate nominee James Talarico appeared at a convention in Southern Dallas and made an appeal to primary voters who supported Rep. Jasmine Crockett.
Winning in Texas is a long shot with anyone. A white Christian man is exactly the kind of person you need to run there, especially one attempting to push back against MAGAs hold on Christian voters using socialist language from the Bible and calling out Republican hypocrisy. If you want to play identity politics games just so you can end up with another Hakeem Jefferies you’re only going to lose by a wider margin. That’s the kind of shit that got us here in the first place.
He’s the only one with a shot of winning because he just won the primary and is now the only Democrat running. If Crockett won, she’d be the only one with a shot.
“the only dude”
yes, just what the doctor ordered… another white christian dude in the senate
we’re all gonna vote for this seminarian, but jfc how about some diversity ffs?

sorry, i’m not sure that looking for some representation that isn’t old white christian dudes is ‘identity politics’.
it seems like having some other kinds of voices that represent what our nation actually looks like would be beneficial for all of us.
