    They're in favor of white people ruling the roost. So they'll be fine.

    The Texas Education Agency had insisted that schools must open campuses for face-to-face learning in August. That changed yesterday when it said schools can open with remote learning only. Now the UIL is poised to announce on Monday that the start of athletics will be pushed back to Sept. 7.

    Cuck alert!

    The truth is that football in Texas should never, ever start before Oct. 1. Even then is too early, but the notion of playing a large chunk of an outdoor season when it's almost always ≥ 90 degrees is absurd.

    Florida's demographics are trending against the traditional Cracker good ol' boy network. The south and west population migration is bringing more diverse, more educated people to combat stereotypical Florida Man. Just like the country, the major population centers on both coasts are blue, which negates all those little "better red than dead" rural counties, Orlando and the Panhandle.

    As of 2018 U.S. Census Bureau estimates, just 53.3% of Floridians are native-born White, with 16% Black and 26% Hispanic. You'll hear more Bahstan and New Yawk accents south of I-4 than southern, and more Spanish than English in Miami and Tampa. Where are net migrants coming from? New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and the Midwest.

    Republicans have been able to play the anti-Castro card for years, but Rubio's a moron and I think Hispanics are waking up to the fact that the GOP is using them as pawns. We'll see if there's a major shift in November.

    While older people tend to vote conservatively, they also tend to be very protective of Social Security, Medicare and medical insurance. And they vote at much higher numbers than any other bloc. If Trump continues to kill them off, he's sunk. The Republicans cannot win the election without winning Florida.

    As far as Georgia is concerned, native-born Whites still make up about 60 percent of the total population, but that's an interesting dynamic. Again, the net migration -- particularly of non-Black minorities -- is diluting the redness of counties like Gwinnett, Cobb and Forsyth. Plus, Atlanta has the third-highest LGBT population per capita, behind only San Francisco and Seattle. And Georgia's population is aging, but not at the rate of Florida's, mainly because most of the migration is of employment age. Georgia is a whole lot more diverse than it was even in 2000, let alone 1960.

    Plus, six out of every 10 babies born in the state the past decade have been non-White. The Poor White Trash are quickly losing their advantage, and Kemp's shotgun-toting pickup truck personna only adds to the fact that his party can only win by deception and deceit.

    Good analysis, but you can't leave out the fact that the Cuban-American population had been reliably Republican. That impacts the numbers.
