I'm pretty sure this is bullying and intimidation by Trump supporters in Texas. The Biden campaign had to cancel the event, a very ugly scene.
Well after election night, week before last, in fact, a black truck with darkened windows (just like the one in the video, but sporting a large "Locally Hated" sticker on the back window rather than a Trump flag) pulled up slowly beside me for at least a block's distance. Thinking the driver wanted to pass, I slowed down (in the curb lane of a busy city street). Instead, I heard the screech of brakes, followed by a yelp of tires as the truck cut closely in front of me (without signaling, naturally), then let off a noxious blast of black diesel exhaust. I cut off air intake in time to keep it out of my car, thankfully.

I drive a hybrid, and it still had a rather small, discreet "Biden-Harris" on the (untinted) back window - along with a "Ditch Mitch" sticker that's been there for a couple of years now. Apparently this combination of factors was enough to set off Mr. Locally Hated.

I live in a very blue city in a red state. Mr. Locally Hated doesn't have to look hard to hunt out other blue voters here. No doubt it made him feel like a really big man to behave so obnoxiously.

But how the Sam Hill did he think these dumb tactics would win anyone over to his POV? Or did he even comprehend that his behavior contributed to the problem, and made him look stupid? (or rather, confirmed his stupidity).

Answer: Mindless regurgitation of hyperbole that is unworthy of caricature.

"You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That's why I believe, if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and or the Senate, that's when civility can start again." -Hillary Clinton

"And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere." -Maxine Waters

"Go to the Hill today. Please, get up in the face of some congresspeople." -Cory Booker

"We owe the American people to be there for them, for their financial security, respecting the dignity and worth of every person in our country, and if there is some collateral damage for some others who do not share our view, well, so be it, but it shouldn’t be our original purpose." -Nancy Pelosi

"Michelle always says, Michelle Obama, I love her. She and my wife are really tight. Which always scares me and Barack. Michelle always says, 'When they go low, we go high.' No. No. When they go low, we kick them." -Eric Holder

"Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House." -Madonna

"I told Jeb Bush after that debate that I thought he should have punched [Trump] in the face." -Nicolle Wallace

"When was the last time an actor assassinated a president? I want to clarify, I am not an actor. I lie for a living. However, it has been a while and maybe it is time." -Johnny Depp

“New details today on the incident that left Senator Rand Paul with six broken ribs – this might be one of my favorite stories.” -Kaisie Hunt

"What we've got to do is fight in Congress, fight in the courts, fight in the streets, fight online, fight at the ballot box, and now there's the momentum to be able to do this." -Tim Kaine

“Anyway, since we’re talking about bigotry, we have to mention Donald Trump. Sorry everyone. I know. I don’t want to give him any more oxygen. That’s not a euphemism, by the way. I mean it literally. Somebody get me the pillow they used to kill Scalia and I’ll do it, okay — I’ll do it." -Larry Wilmore

“How do you resist the temptation to run up and wring [Sarah Huckabee Sanders'] neck?” -Nicolle Wallace

“If the bully [President Trump] gets close, I’ll punch the bully in the mouth.” -Ricardo Rossello

And every other thread here, including this one, is full of virulent hatred towards Democrats, for anyone foolish enough to think that GOPers have any sort of upper hand here.

from the first post on this thread in case anyone has forgotten

A family member passed a Trump convoy prior to the election. They had gun cutouts and other stuff on a flatbed that was meant to intimidate. Just ridiculous. Luckily, they're not stupid enough to actually pull the trigger for the most part.

“It’s clear” you have no evidence to support your claims, just like the president himself.

And speaking of bullying, didn’t one of Trump’s ISIS caravans run the Biden campaign off the road in Texas?
