No, it isn't. The only people who give a rat's ass about this are moonbats who hate him anyway, and wouldn't vote for him even if he personally shoveled welfare checks out of his pickup down the streets of suburban Houston.
But I am happy that Texas blessed the USA with Senator Cruz - he's been most helpful calling out liberal bullshit. I have to wonder what Beta O'Rourke voters in Houston think about 2024? Cruz for President? I'd vote for him next time.
