Texas Governor Greg Abbott has officially endorsed former President Donald Trump for the GOP primary nomination.
During a ceremony on Sunday to honor military personnel stationed along the Texas border, Governor Abbott (R-Texas) enthusiastically endorsed the 45th president for the GOP primary nomination, emphasizing that ”Joe Biden is posing a potential terror threat in the United States of America.”
“A president has one ultimate responsibility and that’s national security. Joe Biden has failed at national security. Well, I’m here to tell you that there is no way, no way that America can continue under the leadership of Joe Biden as our president,” Abbott passionately stated. “We need a president who’s going to secure the border. We need a president who’s going to restore law and order in the United States of America. Not letting these criminals run ransack over the stores that you see images of almost nightly. We need a president who’s going to restore world peace as opposed to this outbreak of warfare under Joe Biden. We need Donald J. Trump back as our president of the United States of America.”
Abbott continued by applauding Trump’s border policies in his speech, highlighting Title 42, the construction of a border wall, and the end of the catch-and-release policy, which allows detained immigrants to remain free while awaiting legal proceedings.
After receiving Abbott’s endorsement, Trump expressed gratitude to the governor and pledged to make his job “very easy” if elected president.
