I am proud of Crockett. We need to stand by her. The other side would and they would be rewarded for it. Thus incessant need to flaunt "moral superiority" is one reason why we lose.

Texas "on both sides" call him that. I've never heard anyone in Texas object.

...I'd say that's pretty minor compared to ending Democracy in the U.S.

In a statement on X, Crockett said her remarks weren’t in reference to Abbott’s use of a wheelchair

“I wasn’t thinking about the governor’s condition—I was thinking about the planes, trains, and automobiles he used to transfer migrants into communities led by Black mayors, deliberately stoking tension and fear among the most vulnerable,” Crockett posted.

“Literally, the next line I said was that he was a ‘Hot A** Mess,’ referencing his terrible policies. At no point did I mention or allude to his condition,” she added.
