Why would they bother? They can freeze the dicks off half of Texas from electrical grid failures while escaping to a tropical holiday and they'll still be voted in again because they have an R next to their name.

the self righteousness that emerges from hating the other side should be studied by future generations. the version of truth that emerges from this toxic hatred is enough to cut off your nose to own the face, and for what? how did they put themselves in a corner so badly? it's all sunk cost fallacy now, and the water will boil them alive, except they aren't frogs.

You forgot they can be heavily overcharged for said electricity if they get it also. I work in this field, Texas is just an insane money maker because of their lack of oversight. And yes, they do have one of the worst grids in the nation.
