Greg Abbott is America's second-best governor. When the competition for #1 is Ron DeSantis, that’s nothing to scoff at, but when the rest of the competition is a field of Asa Hutchisons and Kristi Noems, suddenly it's less impressive.
My Republican friends in Austin and Washington DC don’t understand why I’m not content with Abbott.
Not only has he kept up with DeSantis’s opposition of COVID tyranny, they say, but he has made unprecedented progress in the fight against so-called ‘wokeness.’
The list of Abbott’s supposed accomplishments is long, but his two greatest are the signing of a bill banning CRT in public schools, and an order directing the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate and treat cases of childhood transitioning as child abuse.
That sounds great.
But the history of Greg Abbott’s DFPS should make any honest conservative question his commitment to the fight against Leftist immorality.
Last year, Abbott signed a bill banning the teaching of Critical Race Theory in public schools. The wording of the bill makes it difficult to enforce, and some argue that compromises with Democrats make the bill effectively useless. His supporters might argue that he can’t write the bill, he can only sign it.
So, let’s instead examine an area where the governor has total control, namely the executive branch of the government. If Abbott was dedicated to eradicating Marxist, anti-white CRT, then surely that would be reflected in the staffing of his state agencies.
Last November, with the help of a whistleblower, the Don Huffines campaign revealed that Texas DFPS mandated CRT training as a condition of employment. Employees were required to list the ways that they will work to increase their consciousness of racial oppression...

I’m perplexed. I don’t see the appeal??
Who is best against Irish Bob? That leaves me leaning to Abbott.
I agree!!!
Exactly.
Sticking with Abbott.
.
Vote conservative in primaries, and STRAIGHT Republican in generals cause even romney and JEB! are head and shoulders above ANY dim-0.
Wife and I are going to vote for Gregg today. He wants another term, and he deserves it.
Two. To their credit, they were very sympathetic and seemed reluctant to have to be called out on such a call, but they did the store's bidding. I'm thinking the manager went too far and said I wasn't allowed ANYWHERE in the business complex at that location, speaking as an agent of the property manager. No expiration.
VOTE,GREG,ABBOTT.
# Abbott has flashes of conservatism. During campaign season.
Exactly!
Just for kicks i might sue the property management company or the owner for engageing the govt to restrict your freedom of expression.

The throught did cross my mind to sue, but she would have the cover of the Texas declaration that Abbott signed.
You can tell anyone that they are no longer allowed in your business, except faggots, trannies, and aggrieved racial groups.
Abbott will run against Beat-o. If you don’t support him, Beat-o will win and you will have a very bad Democrat governor in bed with the globalists. I don’t live in Texas, but I’m concerned about the invasion, which Beat-o in office do his level best to facilitate.
Sometimes you don’t get the perfect candidate. In fact, most of the time you don’t.
