As President Donald Trump's efforts to enact his mass deportation operations continue, Democrats' hold on Texas' border cities is waning, as elected officials in the region move to identify with the GOP.
It is no secret that Texas is among Trump's biggest allies. He had a decisive win in South Texas in the past presidential election, taking 14 of 18 counties within 20 miles of the border. The now-president also won the state with 56.2 percent of the vote, compared to former Vice President Kamala Harris' 42.4 percent.
