    I knew O’Hare was an asshole, but I didn’t realize he was the Farmers Branch Immigration Ordinance asshole. Downballot matters. Midterm and off-year matters. These pieces of shit know they’re in the minority, but because of that they’re motivated and once you control the levers of power it’s easier to hold on to them.
