Unfortunately I'm not all that impressed with Abbot here. When Lt Gov Dan Patrick called for a Special Session afterwards, Abbott said 'that would be goofy." In reality, I'm sure the Dems are making some extra bank from China or whoever else is paying them. Abbott is just playing the fence here when he should be helping Texas GOP actually FIGHT for the things we care about, such as election integrity.
I get the inside play emails from local patriot clubs, the Texas Minute, etc... Most folks inside the conservative activist community see Abbott as someone who is trying to stifle any grassroots momentum we have and keep the Bush RINOs in power over the Lonestar State. Abbot & crew are essentially in a behind-the-scenes battle with Texas GOP Chairman Allen West, who is the REAL patriot leader in Texas.
It sucks, but our greatest hurdle in this fight isn't some radical lefty, it is these half-ass Republicans who manage to keep people fooled with a patriot mask on...
Great. I guess Mr. "I'll just suddenly declare Mask Mandate and Lockdown the day before Independence Day" will likely remain in power. Can't say I agree with Trump on this one, but Trump at least knows Abbott will work with him so he is thinking strategically I guess.
I will still vote against Abbott in a primary if I think there is a better candidate, for what it's worth.
