Fox News anchor Jesse Watters warned that if Republicans cannot return to power in Texas, the GOP may never win the presidency again.
Watters said during his show Thursday night that Democrats’ sweeping wins in the midterm elections could be a death knell for Republicans’ chances of winning future presidential elections.
Democrats won all statewide elections on the ballot Tuesday, leaving Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) as the only remaining GOP statewide official in the Lone Star State.
“They seize Texas and are on pace for the biggest midterm landslide since Watergate,” Watters said. “Now, if Texas stays blue, a Republican will never sniff the White House ever again.”
Threatening me with a good time will get you nowhere.
“They want it extinguished. They’re already talking about abolishing the Electoral College, impeaching the president, and executing > Elon Musk. Democrat governors now control a majority of states where most of the population lives,” Watters added.
No Democratic elected official has called for the execution of Musk.
Goddamn Jesse, you’re being hysterical. This is why men don’t belong in politics. Too emotional. /s
I have called for it but fortunately for him I’m not an elected official.
It’s me, I’m calling for it.
He should be strung up from the roof of a supercharge station and beaten with sticks
This is an opportunity to eliminate the electoral college. Without Texas, Republicans may see the popular vote as the only path to victory.
It will be hard to keep Texas blue. Remember that the GOP had almost the worst possible candidate up against one of the best possible Dem candidates. Don’t get complacent.
Demacrats fliped seats for Governor, Senate, and Congress.
Yes. In this environment where Trump has done so much to anger people.
This election cycle was delightful for us. In two years, it will likely be back to normal and much more difficult.
Totally agree. I’m just pointing out that Democrats didn’t just flip a single seat in Texas like the person above made it seem.
Quite right, and thanks for the clarification.
The republican party deserves to end after sicking Trump on the world. I hope they lose miserably in 2028 and the party dies, then the Democrat party splits
Weird of him to use the word “sniff”
He does this all the time. He made some other comments about Republicans getting “spanked” this election, and similarly I think he’s the one who after Trump was elected talked extensively about how “daddy’s home” and the Democrats were going to get “spanked.”
Some people are just gross.
After two Trump terms, I imagine the stench is palpable within those walls. Possibly a slip of the tongue, but surely accurate.
I bet there’s shitstains on every golden carpet.
It’s crazy how quickly the Fox team was able to publicly identify where the Republicans went wrong this midterm cycle, and what the repercussions are likely to be, while left-leaning news outlets (and establishment Democrats) are still arguing over Israel and trans rights. I’m so very glad we elected more, bluer Democrats, but we’ve still got work to do to hold these people to their promises.
No one will want to sniff the white House ever again. They’re hiding his souled diapers in the basement.
Trying to see the downside.
Why they running around smelling things anyway?
Perverts.
or if the electoral college is replaced with popular voting
Don’t get cocky.
Do better than Biden, please. Every election you have new voters who were raised in your policies. Give them a reason to vote for you.
Don’t buy into that shit whatsoever. Presidental race is very different and Republicans still control a lot of electoral votes.
The only way we insure it most likely doesn’t happen again is if you insist to your reps to join the electoral interstate compact
join the electoral interstate compact
Its a good solution in paper until a bad actor takes over a state and breaks their state out of that so the whole thing falls apart. This will need an amendment to a bunch of state constitutions.
Sounds great, lets keep texas blue and turn every other red state as well.
I feel like Kirk near the beginning of Stark Trek VI:
[on whether to help the Klingons]
Kirk: They’re animals.
Spock: Jim, there is an historic opportunity here.
Kirk: Don’t believe them. Don’t trust them.
Spock: They’re dying.
Kirk: Let them die!
I probably should have Spock’s reaction to this, but we’re talking about a party, not people.
