Texas is trending blue. The 18-29 voted Kerry 54-45%. Clinton won them 58-32% and 51-41% (they're split up into 2 different groups, 18-24, 25-29). 30-39 were split 46-46.

When the older Texas GOP electorate dies off (give it 8 years), Texas will be for the Democratic Presidential nominee in 2024-2028.

Democrats' strategy of picking off suburbanites to gain electoral success flopped massively this election.  I think, while there are a lot who still push this, anyone who thinks they'll keep trying this is delusional.

I invite them to target Texas.

So, since they failed in one election, they should give up. Makes perfect sense.

They're strategy to target surbanites will fail because of their support for Rep. Keith Ellison for DNC chair....the democrats are quickly becoming more radical than thought possible.

You're conflating support for Ellison as part of a larger trend. Ellison is a moment in time, not the Democratic Party's final destination point.
