“I told [lawmakers] straight up: South Texas will never be red again,” said Mario Guerrero, the CEO of the South Texas Builders Association, a Trump voter who traveled to Washington last week.

He urged the administration and lawmakers to ease up on enforcement at construction sites, warning that employees are afraid to go to work.

I hope for two things...

Minorities that "tried out" Trump and the Republicans learn their lesson and never do that again, and
they also push the Democratic party away from their comfortable status quo complacency to get actual beneficial progress.

And the GOP has gerrymandered the maps so much that they can never get those districts back.

Texas Dems: "Hm... What kind of policies would be popular with Texans? I know! I'll push as hard as possible for sweeping gun restrictions!"

Ope, GOP got Trumped, we warned and warned you and you didn't listen and now he's using the government for personal enrichment without a care in the world for anyone.
