Glad he did it, but hard to get excited about lifting months of restrictions that should have never been put in place.
I think his own words are indicative, paraphrasing... The time to open is NOW - so we’re going to open in 10 days.
Between this and the power failure, he’s got real political problems.
Michael’s glaring omission......
....what difference does it make if Texas opens up....?
Soon......very soon....they will have thousands of Covid sick illegals in every town and county!
And coming to a town near you too!
Neither will effect his political future. Texans aren’t stupid.
“Soon......very soon....they will have thousands of Covid sick illegals in every town and county!”
Yep.... it’s like the inmates are running the asylum.
Who in their right mind releases covid positive illegals into the population.
There’s only one logical explanation and it ain’t good.
Colorado’s mask BS is supposed to end this weekend.
But considering this state is run by stinking commies, I’m betting they’ll extend it yet again.
“Colorado’s mask BS is supposed to end this weekend.”
Trapped in Michigan Medusa Wretched Hitler’s state here. She can’t hold out much longer. Trying to find a way to kill more elderly I guess.
Isn’t Michigan’s other government branches GOP?
YES!
Time will tell whether Abbot’s decision was right or wrong.
IMO you can’t predict or stop a once in a lifetime event like the
Ice Storm. You can’t predict the Hurricanes that hit the Texas
coast each year. You can build structures to help reduced the
damage but the storms will shut things down for a few days.
I lived along the LA/TEX gulf coast most of my life and have seen
many hurricanes come and go. The destruction is great but you
have to clean up, rebuild and get on with life.
It is the States, not the Federal Government, who hold absolute authority in matters of public health. We need more Governors and State Legislatures with the spine to stand up to Federal medical tyranny.
Meanwhile in Gov. Gruesome’s California:
California now ranks dead last in reopening schools, according to Burbio. Leaders of United Teachers of Los Angeles woke (pun!) from their nap towels, ate stale graham crackers and denounced the plan as “a recipe for propagating structural racism [that] is deeply unfair to the students we serve.”
Time has already told. There is and was no need for some silly mask.
The people who are employed by government, whether federal or state have not missed one paycheck. The people who are retired and receive income have not missed one pay check. Others , some allowed to work from home are doing okay. Those who depended totally on their selves to support the family are hurt most.
Many of us have forgotten our young years of pay day to pay day.
Texas will do okay opening up and living as God intended. I’m thankful this day has come.
GO P...yep.
“Neither will effect his political future. Texans aren’t stupid.”
Agree, somewhat. He won’t be primaried, but there are a lot of Republicans (many here) who will sit out next year’s election to ‘teach Abbott a lesson’ and allow Beto to walz-in.
That’s how we ‘purify’ our party.
And the first thing Republican legislatures all over the country should do now, is pass laws preventing anything like the lockdowns, mask mandates, or “25% capacity” crap from EVER happening again. They should especially strip the powers from the governors and unelected “officials.”
