This is true and with the huge influx of aliens Biden is letting across the border it is only matter of time until there are no conservative states.

So why hasn't Abbott called out the NG to close the border?

Seems like pretty standard stuff, but then I'm not a politician.


Because Abbott is a moderate that goes along to get along. He thinks he can run for President in 2024, ha ! He wouldn’t even have to use the NG to close the the border. He could use the Department of Public Safety to shut down every road and highway coming into Texas causing all commerce to stop on both sides.



And therein lies the rub.

The commercial interests don't want the border closed in that matter.

Shut down commerce like that and campaign donor dollars are no longer going to his campaign.
