The issue with the Rio Grande Valley is it has a "small town" attitude. Things like parades and little league are part of the culture and a sense of belonging is important. I think the GOP tapped into that.

I hope they realize that this is a facade.

Immigration is sort of a secondary issue to them. Too much - not good. Treating immigrants like shit - not good.
