Death To The Republican Caucus
The self-destruction of Texas' right wing.
https://www.lonestarleft.com/p/death-to-the-republican-caucus
While Texas Republicans remain in complete disarray, most of us have been left believing that we would have to wait until the 89th Legislature to see blood. However, fights over leadership this last weekend proved us all wrong.
Yesterday, Harris County Republican Representative Briscoe Cain asked, “Should the Texas House GOP Caucus be dissolved?”
I answered the poll, “It’s useless,” because the House GOP Caucus is useless, but if the in-fighting among Republicans has gotten so bad that they are going to dissolve their entire caucus, I say let them. It will only help Democrats in the long run.
How did this come about?
