Last June, Abbott looked like a juggernaut. He’s got so much money behind him such an entrenched machine built up, what could possibly stop him? The short answer is — accountability to his own base.
He’s had plenty of opportunities to step up and demonstrate his leadership skills and throw his support behind GOP priorities.
But when it really mattered, those leadership skills were nowhere to be found.
The True Texas Project laid out the case for why his failures to back Republican priorities are reason to replace him with a Republican nominee who makes them a priority. more
Especially on COVID issues, Abbott has not been a leader but a follower…of Ron DeSantis.
I don’t know … sounds like a quintessential Republican to me.
All bullshit; All the time.

Like OZ; another “Bush Republican”. aka Liberal liar
Whatever happened to Texas finishing the border wall? Anybody?
I’ve been wondering why he didn’t secure the border a long time ago.
Like the day Biden seized office and cancelled the wall.
He’s a POS. Worthless smack talker. He should have had the National Guard on the Border the day Biden was installed. Instead there have been a couple million illegals pouring into Texas and points north in the past year.
And his incessant open arms bullshit to every fucking REgressive company in other states is almost instant demography change. 10-20,000 people/month stream in DFW alone. Reagan won TX by over 20 points, Trump took it by 5 in 2020. Beto came within 3 of Cruz.
Finally the idiotic obeisance to windmills and solar farms is downright lunacy. If that wasn’t enough of a clue bat for this moron because of last Feb’s cold spell, and apparently it wasn’t, it’s time for a change.
The old saying fits him: All Hat, No Cattle.

I got no problem with that, but damn man, DO SOMETHING!
It’s all part of the GOPe setup to turn TX blue. The billionaire class really wants TX to be another California, and they’re spreading around cash all over to do it. They already run all the major TX cities and large ‘burbs. It’s only a matter of time before they have absolute communist nutfuckers running the entire state. I knew moving here was too good to be true. There is no place the democrat/gop toxic statists won’t turn to shit… none.
There are no Republicans.
You guys in Texas better figure out who that “Anybody” will be. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a dozen Republicans fighting for the governor spot, while the Democrats unify behind someone trying to become the state’s first left-handed lesbian Latino governor with no tonsils.
