Can someone please explain what are Republicans going to do without Texas (38 electoral votes)?

In 2000 Republican won Texas by 21.32%
2004 by 22.9%
2008 by 11.8%
2012 by 15.78%
and 2016 by 8.99%.

Donald Trump won Arizona (11 votes) with a margin of 3.57%.
38 + 11 = 49 electoral votes. What are Republicans going to do?

With Texas the Democrats don't need Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Vermont , New Jersey for the Presidency. Republicans are in Big trouble. Thank you demographics.

Republican Texas simply needs to purge voting rolls of Hispanic last names - starting with Cruz.

Obviously you missed the actual news this week where California AG has allowed the next phase of California secession to proceed with signatures for appearance on next ballot....and that, my friend, is 55 electoral college votes, which means the Republicans would have a net gain 17....so your question should be - "what are the Democrats gonna do?"...and the answer is what the Democrats always do..."lose election after election".

Texas actually did secede from the US along with your treasonous Tennessee.

wtf are you talking about? Democrats don't need the white non-Hispanic votes in California. There is no evidence that Republicans can win California in presidential elections.

Clinton won the state by a margin of 30.11% and it is only going to get worst because the Hispanic population is growing faster. The Republicans seriously need to rethink their anti-abortion proposals.

Oooooh, with the loser meme, can "snowflake" and "trigger" be far behind? Good little Trump dog.

He's saying if California does leave the Union to become it's own nation then Democrats in the remaining 50 States (since Puerto Rico voted to become a state, making it official would let us keep the same flag so why not?) would face a loss that far outweighs the effect of anti-Republican Hispanics on southwest state elections.

Personally, I don't think it's that linear anyway.

Not sure how all that would work out. California has the best economy of the states and most every country. Porto Rico has a basket case of an economy. Even worse than that of Mississippi. Exchanging Porto Rico for California would just add another moocher state.

That would be a good thing! I would move to California if that ever happens.
