Better idea . . . . somebody take Greg Abbott hostage.

Yeah, I can imagine how the hostage negotiations would play out:

“We demand $1,000,000 to return Greg Abbott!”

“Hmmm, how about $500 and you keep him?”

“Wot!?! No! Okay, $1,000!”

“Nah, how about $20 and we throw in one free movie on HBO?”

“Okay, two movies and the latest season of ‘Better Call Saul’ and you have a deal!”

Lopez Obrador is someone who thrives on picking fights just like Abbott. He might start busing immigrants from Guatemala to the Texas border out of defiance and just to piss him off.

Perfect scenario! Well Done, let Abbott rot!
