You can tell mid-terms are starting to heat up when you get slimy text messages like this. Just an FYI to the Texas Republican Party running these ads: the dude is an oil and gas investment banker whose firm put his ownership interest in a trust, and that trust has interests with many international banks such as HSBC, which is not a CCP-controlled bank. There are tons of 401Ks, 403Bs and other investment vehicles all around the US with very small amounts of ADRs in Hong Kong-based banks as part of their money market funding. Nearly all large multi-national companies do this.
Dan Crenshaw lost the local Republican primary to the dude whose supporters sent out this fictitious ad about Shaun. Dan wasn't far enough to the right. I was on a Space the other day where someone who was clearly off his meds was saying something about Texas going blue, and I nearly spit out my coffee. Here is exhibit #945 of how he is not just wrong, but that he has absolutely no clue about Texas outside the shelter he's hanging out in downtown Austin.
But more importantly, Shaun is a good family man, and has been a mainstay in the Houston oil and gas industry for over 30 years, helping put together more deals in the oil patch than just about anyone. If THAT guy is a CCP communist, then brother we have problems.
I don't know much about the guy running against Shaun, but the Texas Republican Party may want to reign him in a bit. This makes him look like a complete idiot.
