Texas Hispanics generally have very low turnout, sometimes at about 20% of the eligible population. If future Democrats can increase that number in South Texas and the inner cities, while pulling suburbanites further to the party, then Texas is definitely winnable.

Honestly, with the trends in the Midwest, states like Arizona, Georgia, and Texas have to start being more favourable for the Dems if they want to win future elections. The white working class shift didn't happen overnight in 2016 with Trump, it's been happening since Obama's re-election in 2012, and it doesn't look like it's gonna slow anytime soon.
