A liberal group called “Coulda Been Worse LLC” is running an anti-Gov. Greg Abbott political TV ad that blames the Governor for the Uvalde shooting, the 2021 winter power-grid failure, and the loss of abortion rights for women. The ad even tries to connect Abbott shutting down the border bridges for greater inspection of drugs and illegal aliens, to the supply chain problems.
However, this is typical of how liberals and leftists play with facts. While the Democrats cannot campaign on any positive things they have done, they will attack and be negative.
The truth is this:
The Uvalde shooting was NOT the fault of the guns. It was the result of liberal policies that allow criminals to be bailed out easily and mentally ill people to roam freely. Guns don’t kill people. Bad people kill people.
The failed power grid in February 2021 was the result of liberal Green environmentalists who closed stations and limited power development. Texans need more diverse energy sources and plants. We should not limit the amount produced and it should be from coal, gas, and nuclear, as well as wind and solar.
Women in the U.S. did not lose their right to abortion. States have the right to determine limits on abortion based on their duly elected legislatures’ decisions. Nothing stops women in Texas from having an abortion in another state.
The most outrageous and ridiculous criticism in the ad is to blame Abbott for the supply chain disruption for trying to address the open border crisis caused by the Biden Administration. The only supply chain Abbott meant to disrupt was the flow of illegal aliens and deadly drugs caused by Democrats and the Biden border crisis.
Democrats can try to spin the facts, but the truth is that before Biden and the Democrats took over the government, energy and gasoline were cheaper, the nation’s economy was the best in history, crime was down, and the border was secure. Those are the facts.
Democrats can play word games but they can’t hide the truth.
