I know Texas is booming, but we're at least a dozen years away from it being blue.

If Texas goes blue, I'd wager that means Biden takes AZ, FL, GA, NC, WI, MI, OH, and PA; while holding all of HRC's EVs, maybe grabbing back ME2, and being competitive in places like MT, IA, MO, and maybe NE2. It would be the largest landslide in a generation.

I agree they should be scared shitless. Not because I think Biden is gonna win, but that Texas is turning purple. With as long as Texas has been lock down red for them to have to compete here has got to be a sobering reminder that they're losing their grip.
