9:11Now PlayingMohamed Hussein is a conservative. He's a Republican. He went to the Texas GOP convention in Houston on June 13, 2026, to confirm he had a place in the party he supports.
Instead, a former Baptist pastor told him to convert to Christianity or leave the country, a state senator claimed Muslims are "required by Sharia to lie," and the outgoing party chair told Muslim delegates from the stage to go join the Democrats.
All under a convention banner that read "Unity drives victory." This is what happened — and why it may cost them in November.
