Good for him!! Selfless to hand the reins to the younger and more progressive candidate. This is how it’s done. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

For those complaining that he should stay and fight or that he's giving up... Read the article. If redistricting happens, the GOP combines two Dem districts so that two Dems be in a tough primary. By Doggett dropping out, he would be showing unity and support for the other Dem.

This ⬆️ Blame the damn Texas MAGA assholes for pitting them against each other with this gerrymandering bullshit.

No. He’s saying if the map stands and his district is combined with another democrat’s that he would stand down so the younger progressive candidate wouldn’t have a primary. He’s being strategically supportive in a super sh*t situation.

He’s would allow a younger, progressive Dem candidate to take over. No ugly primary

Ok, I didn’t catch that subtext at first. If that’s so, protect this man at all costs.
