Texas GOP hates H-E-B head as Texas Monthly salutes cult

Not yet officially at the state GOP level, but at the local level, county parties are hating on H-E-B grocery chain head Charles Butt, reports Texas Monthly. Unfortunately, on that side of the coin, versus the laughable GOP hating, we have the Monthly's Forrest Wilder joining the H-E-B Cult:

As a brand, H-E-B commands deep loyalty—not just for its abundant, affordable food, generous treatment of employees, friendly service, Selena merch, and Texas-themed everything, but also for the company’s nimble response to crises, including Hurricane Harvey, COVID-19, and the blackouts of 2021.

Reality?

Kroger is often cheaper than H-E-B, especially paired with the occasional Winco visit, as I've noted.

Reality No. 2? H-E-B is non-union, like every grocery chain in Tex-ass other than Kroger. 

Surprisingly, local GOP does NOT hate on Butt for his modern art
