I don't know if Abbott will get elected again but I definitely want a more conservative governor. I like Allen West on the surface but idk.

It seems Trump is backing Abbott. If that turns out to be the case I'll go with the devil I know even though I am not happy with his initial response to covid and the mandates. He seems to have grown some tiny balls recently.
I'm hearing the same from my friends and family in Texas. They religiously vote in very primary, school board vote, you name it. They were dead-set four months ago on throwing Abbot out over the mask mandate stuff. However, his recent actions and his fight with the Texas dims and pushing through on the voting stuff has lifted him up a lot. He has moved himself out of "I'l vote for a mop bucket over him to 'I guess I can tolerate him but he better not disappoint me again'" which is a big turnaround.
They were breathing fire over that mask mandate. If he brought it back he'd be sunk in Texas (which is why I'm positive he won't).
"I guess he's fine" is how I'm feeling. I want a based governor and I told my friends and family his ass was out last year over the masks. I still don't completely trust him but he has my thanks for the pro 2A bills he's signed off on.
Trump endorses the guy that shares his donor pipeline, no surprises there and doesn't mean he's the right guy for the job. Voters like you frustrate me because when RINOS show their spots and act like RINOS people like you comment on here or in other media about how disappointed you are and wish we could have an other choice. Right now we have at least 2 other great choices. Don't let the the establishment hook you with finally showing conservative balls when they should have had them the whole time. If Abbott wins, watch how quickly the conservative resolve fade and we're back to the same old shit.
Fuck off asshole. I've been watching those running, and the others are even weaker than Abbott.
The only reason why Abbott is nutting up is because of the dissatisfaction from his handling of the Covid restrictions and getting out shined by Ron Desantis and others. But I guess tossing plebs a bone here and there is enough to bring the NPCs back into the fold just like the R establishment expected to happen. Then you'll bitch once Covid round 4, 5, 6 come out and now Abbott is no longer in an election year to be tough and he'll cuck out. And Allen West weaker than Abbott? Sure buddy.
I've seen the results of blacks in the highest office in the land, and every big city in America. It has been shit all over. Same with most of those in Congress. You go ahead and vote for your PC buddy and see how it works out. I don't think you'll find enough in Texas agreeing with your shit. As for your NPC comment. You can kiss my ass I have been awake longer than you are likely to have been alive.
Abbot will mostly likely win in the primary, but not by as much as before. He really took a hit on the mask mandate. However, many friends and family (all diehard conservatives who vote in both primary and statewide) are coming around. They like Allen West a lot, but he does run into the headwind of not quite being seen as a "Texan". I know that'll tick some off, but a lot of Texans will still choose someone who feels like one of us.
It wasn't just fraud, Ted Cruz did suffer from some of that when he took on Beto. Beto did much better in several rock red conservative counties. Those places don't have the city fraud, yet Beto performed much better than any democrats in years.
Even though Beto was a complete loser, Cruz is still seen as an outsider.
Ultimately Trump and Texans dislike of DC (and Beto foolishly accepting Hollywood money) was enough to push Cruz to victory and overcome the fraud in the cities. Rural vote still has massive pull in Texas.
The rural vote beat dims massive mail-in fraud in 2020 (No, Biden did not get anywhere near 5 million votes in Texas, but Trump really did get a mind-blowing 6 million votes in Texas).
I’d like Abbott to give us a detailed, truthful explanation for that freeze we endured. Also, some private (yes private!) non-denominational schools are requiring masks for teachers and students for the new school year! It’s affecting my family who really need their job there. Widows and orphans type situation.
I’ve loved Allen West a long time— and more so since the I 35 incident which was to me an “assassination attempt “—-but I admit I just want anything but Democrat crap in Texas— we’re so f&$ked with 100’s of 1000’s a day crossing and they’re not from Mexico but from countries worldwide— sucks for us now but they’re being shipped all over the country to you daily via your tax dollars in US military transport
