James Talarico's "Pronouns vs Prices" Speech Goes Viral

Monday, March 16, 2026

News interview featuring Texas Democrat James Talarico, who argues that politicians are distracting voters with culture wars like pronouns and identity politics instead of addressing real economic issues like rising prices and the cost of living.

In the clip, Talarico explains why he believes many politicians focus on divisive cultural issues while Americans are struggling with gas prices, housing costs, healthcare, and the economic impact of the growing conflict in the Middle East.

They might have scrolled a Definition for Rwingers - "Pronouns are words like, "she, they, it"... but otherwise pretty spot on.

Talarico's quite gifted in articulating the causes of economic struggles for average Americans. Especially when many are working multiple jobs but watch their dollars getting stretched thinner and thinner in real time.

BTW, thanks for the vid on the Trident. Hope it makes the kind of difference the vid producer suggests it might.

Talarico is a good person.

He's got good ideals and values.

He speak the truth and in a manner which respects the people he's talking with.

I hope he does well.

If he can win Texas, he will one day make a good president.

Same thing the Oneironaut has been saying for 5 years.

You understand he's ran up the score in targeting White and Latino voters and the data shows that's how he won.

Talirico is a White elitist, surprised you don't know that Clownshack. I'd be leery of these White Elite Democrats also White Media types.

They fucked over a legitimate Black woman candidate, same way they fucked over Bernie in 2015/16.

I see that 1Nut is still afraid of, "white devils".

Even ones that promote equality and justice for all, and who attracts all colors to his campaign.

OneTrumper prefers his white politicians to be covered in orange makeup and raping children.

Trump purged the government of black people, OneTrumper tries to blame Crockett's loss on Talarico ... because Texas Republicans shut the polling stations down early.

Figure that out.

- Figure that out.

His only purpose here seems to be to troll "Lumpers" with his wit and wisdom.

Which should really only require about 30 seconds a day to deplete.

This guy could conceivably beat Paxton because he's a criminal. No way he beats Cornyn.

The left, Dems and MSM (as always, for give the redundancy) thought Wendy Davis was going to be their Texas savior. Then it was Beto. Now, it's this faux Christian clown with all sorts of tweets and video sermons being uncovered that with some targeted ads will likely sink him with Texas voters because he's a kook.
