Trump endorsed Abbott before Allen West announced his run. Abbott had started beating his chest about the border (of course he knew the rumors of West challenging him). Before that, he had done very little, other than do live press events, and set aside more Texas taxpayer funds to manage the ILLEGAL ALIENS.
The biggest problem is a serious lack of candidates. 90% of his endorsements seem to stab him in the back, even many we thought would be great. What else can you do if no good people run for office or all of them are snakes?
That's always been our biggest downfall. Voting matters even less then a stolen election if all of the candidates always turn on us. We have needed serious candidate reform for decades. People just won't come together and do it.
Nothing; I voted for him, too. But, (1) Trump had endorsed Abbott before Allen West announced his run. (2) In the primary, the votes were split because of West and Huffines being the top contenders against Abbott. If they had worked that out, and only one of them challenge Abbot, I think there would have at least been a runoff.
He is so compromised. Shocked Trump endorsed him.
Very Vertically compromised. He has slow walked everything possible and I dont trust him.

What was wrong with Allen West? I supported him. Strong policies.
