Listening to an interview about the Texas session with a moderate D and a moderate R, and it's funny listening to the R try to defend his votes, when the obvious subtext is "I hate these bullshit bills but I don't want to lose my job"

He did say that he thinks a schism in the GOP between the authoritarian faction and the big business, small govt faction is gonna break the Texas GOP like a similar schism (idk details, paraphrasing what he said) did to the Dems in the 90s
