Abbott is making the biggest mess imaginable. He’s the one responsible and it would be reprehensible to shift the whole conversation over to Biden. And that’s what would happen if Biden got pugnacious here. Let Abbott continue to shoot off parts of himself and then cut his own throat - he’s clearly this stupid.
Bullshit.
Abbott is overreaching badly, because he is not empowered to conduct foreign policy or police the border.
Biden is.
Haul all of the rotted produce to his office. Along with invoices for the losses.
it’s a pretty sad commentary on the state of the GOP that Greg Abbott’s strategy to make himself a presidential contender is to hurt his own constituents by creating an economic crisis, then hope voters are dumb enough to blame Biden for it

Where was Mr Ruper when Abbott froze a bunch of his constituents to death or when he diseased a bunch of them to death? Abbott freezes us, diseases us and now starves us.
What a choice? Would I rather starve or freeze to death? Once thought of living in Texas but thankfully that thought passed quickly. It is a beautiful and varied land. It’s too bad about some of the people living there. Of course, I will admit that Alabama is not much better people wise. And think, there are people like this ALL OVER the world.
So he’s doing his own foreign policy. Texans have a real issue thinking they’re a separate country.
Now, suing him for losses is a great way to highlight that he caused the problem with his (illegal) action and to keep it in the news for months & months.
Articles of Confederation is how the GOP acts: States are sovereign and can enter into treaties with other nations.
This is a linguistic slight of hand by Gov. Abbott to get around the legal definition of a treaty and the requirement by the U. S. Constitution to have any such agreement between a United States city and a Mexican city not being ratified by the U.S. Senate.
Unfortunately some voters are that dumb!
Lots of voters in Texas are dumb but more aren’t dumb so much as they are religious. If y’all haven’t figured this out by now - the hold the GOP has on its voter base is religion. It’s all about the End Times and evangelical religion.
Just wait 'til summer when people need the AC to prevent heat stroke. Abbott is a determined SOB, that’s for damn sure. He’ll find a way to make life miserable for every last Texan until the day they die. The sooner, the better as far as he’s concerned.
Yes. click on the username, when a box comes up click on it again, then click on the “Normal” box in the upper right and you’ll see options for ignoring a poster.
Just the Democrats, honey. Just the Democrats. (he thinks)
Spoiler alert: there are no antelopes.
Should dig the wells deeper, then. At what depths do antelope usually roam?
There aren’t any wells, either.
They’ve got all these regulations now so that you barely get enough antelopes from a well to make your costs back.
Ever seen antelope? They are cool.
