Texas Governor Rick Perry addressed the ongoing immigration issue and its potential political implications during a recent interview. Perry expressed his belief that the current administration's policies are causing Texas to become even more red in terms of political leanings.
The former governor responded to assertions made by the Castro brothers that Texas would eventually turn purple and then blue. Perry disagreed, stating that the actions of the current administration are actually driving more historically Democratic voters in Texas to become Republicans. He attributed this shift to concerns over the open border, rising crime rates, drug trafficking, and other problems associated with the border region. Perry argued that these challenges have caused Hispanic Democrats to align with the Republican Party in increasing numbers.
