Texas is very important, not just as electoral votes, but also as the shockwave their support has on all the nation, so if the governor of Texas endorse you then that is a big thing!
And exactly that happened today! This is huge message to all republicans to unite behind Trump and beat the crap out of Hillary. The latest Donald Trump supporter comes straight out of Texas and is none else but Governor Greg Abbott. Although he seemed to be supportive of Trump before, he is now encouraging the nation to act on pushing Trump faster, stronger and bigger into the elections.
Abbott said “We have no second chance to get this right.”
The governor of the Lone Star State explained that the country is at “a tipping point.” “People have to participate if we are going to put America back on the right track,” Abbott said while appearing on CNBC....

That’s what I thought.....thanks proust.......;)
Bye! Bye! Cruz.
Hello Senator Perry!
*** What took you so long Greg? ***
Abbott endorsed Trump on May 12, 2016. Went on several networks between then, and May 16 to voice his support for Trump.
Maybe this reporter was hiding in his safe space or Mom’s s basement several months ago. Weird.
Yep. And I have animus toward Cruz and his pals too. Elitist pricks, all.
Thanks, sock. I’d just mentioned same thing and didn’t se your post (on phone...ugh), until now.
I think Governor Abbott probably saw the RNC Convention when Cruz showed up to not endorse Trump and saw the public reaction.
Lol, I turned mine off at the Town Hall. I just could not type that well,, and FR was so tiny.
I repeat: Abbott came out in support of Trump on May 12, 2016.
“What took you so long Greg?”
He probably should have waited until the Tuesday after Labor Day.
“Shameful to say since I’m a Texan but I think Abbott was a Cruzbot.......I stand corrected and I’m too lazy to look it up.”
No, you’re right. Abbott endorsed Cruz in the primary, though I wouldn’t go so far as to call him a Cruzbot.
I think he was just doing the usual congenial thing for the state’s favorite son.
Not massive and not a game changer..... surely we can be optimistic on FR without being delusional !!
I can't stand Cruz now.
Don’t get it either - a game changer, really?
There was NEVER a doubt in my mind that Abott would endorse Trump, he IS a true conservative and a true patriot!!! He would NEVER EVER let HELLARY stand a chance in HELL of walking into OUR White House!!!! These BASTARD NEVER Trumpers are NOT conservatives they are GLOBALISTS nothing more !!!! They have NO principles and they are DEAD as far as any TRUE republicans and conservatives are concerned!!!
Texas Governor ping!
Uhhh...that was the Three Stooges.
They did that routine one last time on the Ed Sullivan Show.
Unfortunately, for them, they were on the same night the Beatles were on, and sadly, they literally got booed off the stage.
CA....
Where is the endorsement from a certain Republican Senator from Texas?”
Neither Cruz nor Cornyn have endorsed Trump. Cornyn is second in command to McConnell, heads up the national republican senators group and wields a lot of power behind the scenes. Other than that, he is the biggest weasel of all, IMO. No one in our family has voted for him for the last two elections.
Abbott is a good troop. He also doesn’t want to have to deal with an energized secession movement should hitlery win.
