well given how the GOP openly flouts the law and is running amok like a criminal enterprise, I'm not surprised that blue avatars here are feeding off of it. but seriously, if Dems take Texas, which these types of numbers make seem less ridiculous, the GOP agenda is dead in its tracks.
The ironic thing is that "roughly half the country becoming ignored at the federal level election after election" is
exactly what you're advocating for when you express support for partisan voter suppression...
In any case, the premise that "If Texas falls, so does the country" is false to begin with. In a previous post, I outlined three paths that the GOP could take to remain competitive after Texas turns blue (the first of which would involve winning Texas back, but the other two wouldn't):

And even if it does, it'd mean the Democrats would be overly reliant on a few big states to get to 270, which would give them massive headaches in the Senate (the GOP would probably have a permanent supermajority there).
