It’s also dumber than it sounds. Most of the people migrating to Texas are people who want to move here. That means they’re likely to be conservative.
Despite all the bitching people do about all the California people moving to Texas, the fact is they’ve made Texas more conservative. California liberals don’t flee California for Texas.
And with the news that Mamdani won, the only New Yorkers I can see moving to Texas for political reasons would be conservatives threatened by a socialist Muslim.
Oh look, someone else who doesn’t understand what a tariff is.
For folks that proclaim that they hate taxes, these assholes sure love taxes.
I don’t understand how people can read shit like this and then vote for this guy. These politicians just say whatever they fucking want, depraved and cruel and completely devoid of even the figments of sense.
He’s not on the ballot this year, and nobody’s going to be thinking about this statement by the time he is.
depraved and cruel and completely devoid of even the figments of sense
It’s red meat for the base. Texas and New York are natural enemies. Like Texas and California. Or Texas and Mexico. Or Texas and Louisiana. Or Texas and Texas.
Damned Texans! They ruined everything about the place.
You Texans sure are a contentious bunch.
So… to move to Texas, a New Yorker has to bring along another New Yorker?
Article 1 section 8 has something to say about this.
Also how the fuck would you even do that? And 100% of what–the current tariff (which is 0) or like literally ALL their assets?
Do you share the same values as me and want to leave the place that doesn’t share those values? Well fuuuck you!
Not the first time I’ve said this today, but fuck Texas
Imagine that. All those wealthy New Yorkers fleeing Mamdani’s socialist hellscape, are apparently not welcome in Texas? Who’da thunk it?
Do It Pussy
Oh no, can’t move to America’s armpit.
Actually this is awesome.
Since New York City (or state) would never pay to relocate people to Texas (the lie is tariffs are paid by the “other” party), maybe this political stunt will educate some of the Texas voter base on the tariff scam they are currently paying into, nationally.
places like texas and florida lure conservatives to thier state witht he promose of no income taxes? and they get stuck there forever because they cant move back to the “liberal hellhole” blue states, trapping them as voters for the gop.
