Wow - didn’t see that coming ... God Speed to his campaign ...
I wish Colonel West good luck but Abbott will probably win this easily he’s one of the most popular governors in the country
I like Allen West, but why? Abbot is kicking ass.
DeSantis is probably more popular.
Abbot pissed a lot of people off by not being American for a bit, he lost his way during the plandemic.
Two great candidates.
I guess Alabama wasn’t big enough for him to run here.
Great news irregardless of whether West wins or not. West will articulate conservative ideas and push the debate where it needs to be.
Bigger fish to fry. Texas Gov. is a stepping stone. He could have moved to a term limited state but they’re not as big.
As others have posted, Abbot went squishy during the plandemic™, which shows he can cave under pressure.
@> I like Allen West, but why? Abbot is kicking ass. <
Agreed. I’d much prefer that West establish residency in another state, then knock off a Democrat senator.
I think it's because a lot of people consider Abbott to be sort of an opportunist, displaying cojones solely because he's up for re-election. They may see West as more steadfast and less likely to be a political chameleon.
I have never liked carpetbagging politicians.
West could knock off Cornyn and he wouldn’t have to move.
It would be a big win for America.
100% support.
I suspect this is why Abbott has been so impressive lately. He must have known when West stepped down as GOP state chair that this was his plan. Therefore, Abbott knew he needed to mend fences with the Conservative base.
Anyone who knows who Charles Martel was is worthy of utmost respect. West is the first person at all, let alone the first politician, that I remember even saying Martel's name. West not only knew his name, but also his accomplishments. Very intelligent man!
“I think it’s because a lot of people consider Abbott to be sort of an opportunist, displaying cojones solely because he’s up for re-election.”
Yep.
Is Abbott still suing Gab.com?
The list is long... are you sure you know what you’re talking about?
West has this TX household’s votes.
