Why Do Texas Republicans Suck? | Guest: Matt Rinaldi | 1/18/23
Summary
Today, we do a deep dive into state legislative politics. Why is there only one Florida? Why is there only one governor willing to take on the most important issue of our time? A lot of it is because of apathy and the fact that we don’t have enough activists focused on the legislature, thereby ceding the field to the lobbyists. We’re joined by Matt Rinaldi, former Texas legislator and current GOP party chair, to discuss why Texas Republicans are so terrible. He explains how the teachers' unions have so much power and how they fool voters in primaries. The speaker of the House is a liberal and everyone seems to fall in line. So here we have a solid red state doing a whole lot of nothing while the culture war engulfs us all around.
