      If a dollar was raised by AOC, every cent will go to the Democrat Campaign funds. The only Texan to receive that money will be a Democrat politician. Namely, Gun-Grabbin’ Irish-Latino-Wannabe O’Rourke.

      God sure did bless them alright with that storm, god is punishing them, cause they don't believe hard enough! Its which they have highest murder /gun deaths in the states.
      Plus didn't texas wanted to succeed from the US? As (R) are always sabotaging the government and looting the system. And now they want the "gooberment cheese", again, as with most red states, can't carry themselves, as they are always poor and ranked highest in poverty, and bad to even raise a family, they always needs that government b ail out.

      @Björn Pedersen Flint not having clean water -- yes, so sad, right? Capitalism does take priority in the US. It also doesn't help that certain political parties frequently block bills that aid the poor and less-privileged.
