His (also mine) district is one of the most gerrymandered in the state, if not the country, but it's urban/suburban, and I'm guessing that he's sensing his constituents think any sort of gathering right now is batshit. This was an easy way for him to assure that he's not entirely deranged, while not deviating too far from the core principles of whatever insanity Trump brings next. |
What is Dan Patrick's issue?
