YOU MEAN THEY DON'T VALUE RACIAL HYGIENE?:
White suburbia the source of Trump's Texas troubles (David M. Drucker, January 30, 2019, Washington Examiner)
In 2016, Trump lost suburban Houston's 7th Congressional District and suburban Dallas' 32nd Congressional District -- both traditionally held by Republicans up and down the ballot -- to Democrat Hillary Clinton.In 2018 the Republican incumbents who for several years had easily defended these House seats fell to Democratic challengers in the midterm elections. The president's particularly low job approval ratings among women fueled the Democratic Party's victories there, and Republicans worry that this situation could foreshadow what's to come next year."It's the suburbs," Robin Armstrong, who represents Texas on the Republican National Committee, acknowledged in an interview with the Washington Examiner. "That's basically the woman's vote. We need to make sure that we're engaging females and letting them know that we're addressing their values and concerns."
