I also think this is a big mistake by the right wing, going after Indians. That's a pretty wealthy and successful and visible group of immigrants right there; the public isn't going to buy those negative claims like they might for Somalis.

How does this guy represent the right wing? I have never heard of him. Is he an elected official?

No one person represents the entire right wing, but you must have a pretty curated Twitter bubble if you haven't seen the unabashed anti-Indian sentiment rising among right-wing MAGA types.
This man is the Republican nominee for Railroad Commissioner in Texas, a statewide office that handles regulation of oil and gas and other fuels.

Me neither nor have I heard of this guy. Hopefully he doesn't win.
For context though, French's 663,679 votes would probably represent only roughly 79% of Texas's Republican/Republican-leaning registered voters. Not exactly fair to categorize this as an entire right wing issue.

We'll try to remember that context next time you post about an irrelevant fringe lefty who says something stupid and you ascribe it to the entire left.

That's awful. Hopefully, a lot of it are Chinese and Iranian bots, trying to tear us apart from the inside.
You can oppose immigration policy without demeaning people because of their race or ethnicity — this post has crossed the line. Delete it @bofrench https://t.co/4m3clsAV5A

Bo French won the statewide Republican primary for Texas Railroad Commissioner. He was the Chairman of the Tarrant County Republican Party, the largest red county in the country, according to his website. He advertises himself as a MAGA conservative.
DiabloWags said:
Tarrant County is the MAGA stronghold that moved to slash nearly half of its polling sites before midterms.
From 316 to 176.
With Black and Latino neighborhoods facing some of the deepest losses in polling places.
Looks like they made a "compromise" and wound up having 92 fewer sites than the 2022 midterms.
The vote was 3 - 2.
The commissioners said it was about costs.
Yeah, sure it was.
lol
Tarrant County removes 92 polling sites ahead of November election

So what percentage would represent the right wing? 85%? 90%? 95%?

Bo French’s words do not reflect my values nor the values of the Republican Party. Antisemitism and religious bigotry have no place in Texas. I am calling for the immediate resignation and replacement of @BoFrenchTX as @tarrantgop Chairman. #txlege

Yes, typo my fault. It's 7-9%. The numbers I posted couldn't possibly represent 79% if you actually thought about it.
