Are Democrats blowing it in Texas? 💥 | Chris Cillizza

Описание: One month out from a crucial Democratic Senate primary in Texas — and things are getting ugly fast. 😬🔥

In this video, I break down the explosive controversy rocking the Democratic Senate race between Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico, after a TikToker alleged Talarico referred to former Senate nominee Colin Allred as a “mediocre Black man.”

The fallout?
➡️ Statements, walk-backs, and denials 🗣️
➡️ Allred firing back — and ultimately endorsing Crockett ✊🏾
➡️ Race, representation, and political strategy colliding in real time ⚠️

All of this is unfolding with huge national implications, as Democrats eye what could be their best shot in decades at flipping a Texas Senate seat currently held by John Cornyn.

I also explain why this messy primary could seriously complicate Democratic hopes — especially with a volatile GOP race looming that includes Ken Paxton, Wesley Hunt, and a potential assist (or wildcard) from Donald Trump. 🐘⚡

Key questions I dig into:
❓ Is this controversy a brief blip — or a defining moment?
❓ How much will race matter in the final month of the primary?
❓ And could Democrats blow a once-in-a-generation opportunity in Texas?
