First of all - they're right. Crockett is unlikely to win in Texas. No matter how anyone feels about her, it would be a waste of resources. We see this play out again and again where the longest of shots get promoted and people sink money into these losing campaigns based on social media popularity - and social media is very good about talking itself into these losing battles for some reason. We should stop doing that. It's not electorally effective.

Second, trying to go after two of the most popular cultural figures at the moment (and gay ones at that) for not bending the knee properly.

I don't think so, honey.
