Similar vein: virtually every true Republican I know has no faith in Bo French or most of the county “leadership.” They know one decent candidate who’s slightly left of center, or slightly right of center but believes 1-2 liberal things, can win here pretty easily.

He’s protested, but he’s never gonna lose that seat the way it’s currently set up. Good news is, he’s entirely culture war and he has probably the least respect of any Tarrant legislative member when in Austin. As Brian Byrd used to say about Mattie, “All hat, no cattle.” I have one friend who went to Tarrant Day in Austin, a few Mondays back, and literally this guy is not respected. But he does get a little bit of local attention because to some they’re “the enemy.” For people who have no idea what this is all about, there’s a church at 35 and Yucca that basically got to set their own zoning in December due to litigation threats, etc. He’s both a State Assemblyman and a member of that church. Repeatedly during that whole arc of time, people would ask him: “Are you at THIS meeting as a state rep or as a church member?” He’d never be able to answer. They are broadly an Instagram brand pretending to be a church, but some see them as saviors. They do good numbers on Sundays, so something is working. But they are also about $14,000 behind on that sex trafficking victim center they’re building, per city records … so maybe the money spigot isn’t as flow-y as we think.

Hey! Glad to be here!

Problem with EDU has always been that you see the “return” in 15-20 years, so if you’re a guy who had a halo effect on building a biz and decided to get into politics (many such guys around here), you see education as almost waste, because we value children in the abstract, there’s no immediate “return” on anything. In this way, I absolutely agree with you.
