Beto O'Rourke says Texas re-opening is 'dangerous, dumb and weak,' Dan Crenshaw and Ted Cruz hit back Failed presidential candidate and unsuccessful Senate candidate Robert Francis O'Rourke had strong words about the re-opening of Texas. O'Rourke told Gov. Greg Abbott that opening up Texas is "dangerous, dumb and weak."
Abbott allowed Texas to move to Phase 2 of its re-opening plan, which permitted more businesses to open up and expand capacity for businesses that were already open. Abbott moved the state to Phase 2 after the state's hospitalization and COVID-19 positivity rates improved.
"Gov. Abbott's focus is to keep Texans safe while also restoring their ability to get back to work, pay their bills and put food on their tables," John Wittman, a spokesman for the governor's office, said. "That is why he is opening the Texas economy in a safe and strategic manner that relies on data and doctors and will protect lives while restoring livelihoods."...........
