Remember the start of all this election insanity was Trump demanding Texas redistrict to give him 5 more seats because he was concerned the polling was looking blue.

How'd that work out?

The 5 districts redrawn to favor Red, 4 of them stayed blue one of them went red.

Of the districts that were solid red that they took people from to stack those new districts to be more red, 2 of them flipped from Red to blue.

They ended up losing 1 seat not gaining 5.
