Democrat and Democrat-Socialist politicians control the largest cities and counties in Texas. In the fight against the Wuhan coronavirus, many of these politicians seem to be on the side of the coronavirus. Instead of supporting early treatment to prevent hospitalizations and deaths, they force masking and deceive or even bribe young people into getting the alleged “vaccine”. The “top” three counties leading in COVID-19 deaths, are all Democrat-led. Texas will continue to suffer a disproportionate share of COVID-19 deaths until this sabotage is overcome.
