    The only potential positive silver lining is if the country club/chamber of commerce republicans start breaking ranks and not voting for these people in general elections--and not just the candidates and their families, but their supporters, too. I feel like we're a long way from that, though maybe the next 2-4 years might be so bad that we accelerate that timeline.

    In other words: no relief in sight

    Pub Subs are severely overrated. It's not a good sub place if the best thing is fried chicken tenders on bread.

    Yeah and if we traded HEB straight up they’d get Central Market as well. Now I’ve never had a Publix chicken tendie sandwich but if I ever see one I’m going and trying one because I’ve heard they’re amazing but HEB has more worth in that trade deal.

    His slights against republicans for those who don’t want to read:
    - Supports mail in ballots
    - Supports public education, against vouchers
    - Far right rumors of hosting drag shows
    - Accepts foodstamps

    Houston claiming a grocery store founded in Kerrville and based in San Antonio is kind of cute.

    Also lol at claiming Mi Cocina as one of Dallas best. That is suburban wine mom heaven.
