A lot of votes in TX would have to flip in 2020 for TX to go blue in 2020. A lot.
actually, its population is growing so fast...it’s not like the democrat literally needs to flip 400,000 votes from trump

Actual Texan here, and yes, the Democrat does need to flip 400,000 votes. It will be very hard to flip Texas in 2020, if not near impossible. They may get close, but 2024 is far more likely.

The Texas population is growing fast, but it's not all liberal that's growing fast. It's everywhere.
okay "actual texan," fake texan is pointing out that texas's growth is not everywhere, it's concentrated around the major metro areas: houston, dallas, austin, san antonio, and midland-odessa, ALL of which swung heavily against trump. my point is that considering texas's demography which is changing by the second, it is definitely helpful but not literally necessary to flip an entire 400,000 of trump's voters from 2016.
