In reelection announcement, Abbott takes aim at Soros and Pelosi
Abbott says George Soros made the difference for Ds in 2016 in Texas, pointing to cash Soros spent on the DAs race in Houston
It’s
official: Governor Greg Abbott
announced his re-election campaign just after 3 p.m. today in San Antonio,
where he also announced his first gubernatorial campaign exactly four years
ago.
“It’s
great to be back in a town where I once waited on tables,” Abbott said as he
first took the stage following an introduction from his daughter, Aubrey Abbott, who joked about how
tough it had been on her father when she chose to go to college in California.
As of yet, Abbott is facing no serious gubernatorial
opponents, so he turned to George Soros
and Nancy Pelosi to rile up the
crowd against “far left liberals.”
