As we saw yesterday someone who has no say in actual funding made it to the border. Abbott holding close to TFG so he could catch a whiff of TFG’s new cologne or whatever bodily odors he could. Not only giving TFG an almost presidential presentation about the border. But also having posters up showing him pictures of the border in a tent. Can donnie do anything other than stop border funding? Nope, but that doesn’t matter. Also something I’d consider more pressing happening right now. Can he help funding for the fires? Nope, again.
What do they get out of it? For donnie it’s obvious he gets free airtime and that presidential look. What does Abbott get? Campaign points? Or is he looking for a chance as VP or another position in Donnie’s WH? At this point I’m thinking he’s auditioning for a spot. Donnie does say he is on the short list for VP pick according to an article on local Faux news 26.
Yet the person who does have sway in funding for both problems he flips the bird to. Abbott in all cases just is a suck up to a wannabe dictator.
Oh yeah, Abbott did announce extra resources going towards fighting the fires yesterday after he already knew it was the second worst and likely to become the worst fire in Texas history. He has been slow on every response. Yes, it did happen fast. But he had all the states resources at hand. Not sure but I think he had more pressing issues like getting posters set up in a tent so donnie wouldn’t have his hair messed up and could look favorably on him.
A side note. Texas recieved a large amount of funding for fire departments across the state from the federal government this year. It was the third largest ever recieved by the state. Yes, another win for President Biden making sure both blue and red states recieve proper funding. So it sounds like some of the funds will probably be used for this crisis.
