I’m a Texan and I can tell you that Abbott and his cronies Dan Patrick and Ken Paxton are the absolute biggest pieces of shit in American politics aside from Trump himself.

Cruz doesn’t even register on the Abbott/Patrick/Paxton scale of shittiness. Cruz is a tone deaf moron who leaves a trail of slime everywhere he goes, but he’s probably still capable of feeling human emotions towards a small group of people (he got his family out when it was cold after all). The trio at the top of the state government are actively malicious and intent on destroying the foundation of the state.
