Ted Cruz says he’d be a “disloyal jackass” if he didn't vote for Greg Abbott for governor in Republican primary

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz announced Wednesday he will vote for Gov. Greg Abbott for reelection, prompting boos from a staunchly conservative crowd after citing their long relationship working together and saying he would be a "disloyal jackass" if he did not vote for the fellow Republican.

Cruz's remarks came during a town hall in Grapevine organized by the True Texas Project, a far-right group that was previously known as the NE Tarrant Tea Party. An audience member stated that the crowd favors "anyone but Abbott" in 2022 and asked Cruz if he would commit to endorsing one of Abbott's primary challengers or commit to staying out of the primary altogether............

I am with Ted. 

Abbot hasn't been perfect, but the supposed strongest challenger to Abbott is Col. Allan West.  West is nice guy, but I won't be voting for any carpet baggers.

All the other in that challenging crew are "no names" who won't get any traction in the general election anyway

Abbott has lurched back to being a conservative with West nipping at his heels.  He is a typical politician who refused to do anything on the border, stifled freedoms under Covid, and got caught with his pants down handing out pure patronage positions to his buddies with no experience in the PUC until the winter disaster hit.

He is a sickening choice to re-elect when one compares with DeSantis.
