This won’t affect many voters as GOP / far right wingers won’t seem to care that Abbott poses with a guy who could be the second McVey. Sad isn’t it.

Sadly, this is Texas we are talking about, which means this revelation will only cause more teatards to come out and vote for Abbott. To them, this type pf unstable, immigrant hating, white supremacist, is one of them.

Hey y’all…Meet Texas’ next Governor if Wendy Davis doesn’t win.

A lover of reichwing homegrown terrorists. An original American Taliban sympathizer. That’s Abbott in a nutshell.

A spokeswoman for Abbott’s campaign told the Express-News that the candidate did not know anything about Massey or his group and that the men simply exchanged “pleasantries.”

Yeah, Bullshit!
