Texans displeased with Biden

 Hot Air:

Texas poll: Biden's overall job approval drops to 32%, handling of the border falls to 20/71

...

 What’s noteworthy about the Q-poll isn’t just his overall decline in Texas, it’s his poor numbers among Latinos specifically. The one silver lining for Republicans in last November’s presidential results was that Trump made a dent in Dems’ hold on the Hispanic vote, particularly in counties along the Texas/Mexico border. Democrats are desperate to get those voters back. These new numbers suggest Biden is moving in the opposite direction.

It’s not all because of his border policies either. But it’s partly because of his border policies.

...

According to last year’s exit poll in Texas, Biden beat Trump among Latino voters 58/41. In Quinnipiac’s new poll, his job approval within that group is down to 37/55....

...

That’s a 29/47 approval rating on immigration among Texas Latinos. The same poll had his overall approval within that demographic at 35/54....

...

It would not surprise me at all to see the Democrats lose their edge in the border congressional districts.

  Among the many mistakes, Biden has made on the border issues is his condemnation of the Border Patrol.  Most of the Border Agents are Hispanics.  When you see the pictures of the mounted Border Patrol agents on horses they are virtually all Hispanics and they and their families live along the border. 

 I think Biden has alienated many of the border residents who have seen their communities turned into migration camps.  I grew up in the Lower Rio Grande Valley and naturally had many Hispanic friends.  They are all proud Americans and very patriotic.  During Vietnam and other conflicts, they were some of the first to volunteer.  

They are not by any means migrants.  Many of their families have been living in Texas since before it declared its independence from Mexico and many of them fought in the Texas revolution.
