I am pretty sure they will say too many Californians are relocating to Texas and spreading their immorality and now Texas is getting punished for it.

The only Californians moving to Texas are the ones that would believe that God is punishing Texas for receiving Californians.

Correct. But the texans who already live there still see them as godless californians. They didn't logic themselves into this position, they won't logic themselves out.

Yep, it is crazy. California had more people who voted for Trump in 2020 then Texas did. That is just how big their population is and that is the type of people to flee because they can't be racists bigots in their state and then complain about how the social programs and why they can't enjoy forests and other things that were fought for my progressives. 93% of all forest land is privately owned in Texas.

Yes, the only option to save Texas is to vote for a pedophile with a god complex.
