You greatly overestimate the appeal of Abbott to the rest of America.
No problem by me ... perhaps I could have been clearer. And I have done a lot worse here in communication (receiving and giving) anyway.
She probably doesn’t realize it, but every time Harris opens her mouth she keeps Biden in office that much longer.
I don’t believe Abbott has any desire to be Prez.
