Maybe he should run against a Democrat somewhere instead.

A good and potentially great American. A true son of the tea party. I will continue to send him all my support. God’s speed to him.

Very!!!

Met him and heard him give an impromptu talk at an NRA Convention. Seems like a genuine man.

As for Abbott, I know some folks from Texas in FR will go bananas, but while he does have some Conservative creds he seems more of an opportunist or goes where the wind takes him, to appease the Left.

Austin is an absolute sh*thole.

Why is it that Democrat Governors and Mayors will literally and figuratively give the opposition the finger at every turn and blatantly ignore anything they want, while Republicans do just the opposite.

Allen West has always been one of my favorite Americans so if he thinks there’s a need to run against Abbott, I trust him.

Why run against a successful Republican governor? Is he trying to elect a Democrat? I did not even know he lived in Texas. Loser.

Isn’t there a picture of Abbott groveling at a George Floyd memorial??

I like Allen West. But I will be voting for Gov. Abbott’s reelection.

Talked to a couple of Texans about this. They are behind Abbott at this point.

My only argument for West is that Abbott has not been very vocal against the southern invasion and the communist takeover of the US.

Is that the only thing against patriots has against Abbott?

I like West and as long as this doesn’t make the Governorship vulnerable to a Democrat, I support him over Abbot.

So West could have moved exactly one mile into the 33rd and dethroned Greasy Veasey and given us a hard flip in Congress, maybe even the total flip to the GOP, and immediately gotten prime committee slots and maybe even taken the NRCC chair from Emmer.

But no.

It's a good thing Bongo Boy is gonna be the new Beto vs Abbott, because in 2012 West lost an easy layup in FL-18, and he's gonna lose this primary.

He should come home to Georgia and run against our RINO Governor. West was born in Georgia.

I’d much rather see West run against a true loser like Cornyn rather than challenge Abbott.

For those of you who want to see Abbott removed from office, may I remind you West’s entry into the primary virtually guarantees Abbott will be the GOP nominee. West will split the anti-Abbott vote with Don Huffines and clear the path for Abbot.

Let the wahh-wahhing begin. Oops, I’m too late. Losers who do nothing are upset about a man who is doing something.

How about that.

I think Abbott is more of a poseur than a true conservative, but I would prefer that West had won a few more contests other than one stint as a Florida congressman. I just don’t think he is a winner.

Allen West is a Great American, but I don’t know why he can’t get elected to office. Maybe he should aim lower, such as a race for Mayor.
