Abbott hands Biden letter blasting border visit as 'two years too late'

[News Junkie]

Source: The Hill

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) on Sunday handed President Biden a letter in which he criticized the president’s visit to the southern border town of El Paso.

The governor was greeting Biden on the tarmac when he handed him the letter, which began with Abbott writing: “Your visit to our southern border with Mexico today is $20 billion too little and two years too late.”

“Moreover, your visit avoids the sites where mass illegal immigration occurs and sidesteps the thousands of angry Texas property owners who lives have been destroyed by your border policies,” the letter read.

Abbott claimed in the letter that downtown El Paso had been “sanitized of the migrant camps” that he said had overrun the city in an attempt by the administration to “shield” Biden from “the chaos that Texans experience on a daily basis.”

100% predictable. Joe going to the border was just politics for Abbott.

[JI7]

1. Too late for what ?

make HIM answer these questions instead of shitty media just repeating right wing shit.

[True Blue American]

53. Abbott waited until the President left in his car, then found a group of media

And blasted him. CSPAN was the only one to show that live, but the cable news repeated it. Shows what Abbott and cable news is.

[machoneman]

2. Joe: tear it up in his face just like Nancy did to Trump's speech!

[iluvtennis]

27. +1. n/t

[Ocelot II]

3. Joe wasn't the president two years ago.

[EndlessWire]

38. Good point. n/t

[emulatorloo]

46. Abbott know that, but he's an asshole so he doesn't care. Thanks for posting the facts!

[Skittles]

4. FUCK that piece of shit Abbott

FUCK HIM

[Lovie777]

5. And yet ....

the picture speaks volumes.

[JohnSJ]

6. It isn't Abbott's legs or spine that are paralyzed, it is his sick, racist, bigoted mind

[bluestarone]

19. AGREE!!

Looks to me like his legs are the best part of his body!

[JohnSJ]

41. agree

[House of Roberts]

7. Two years ago we had a raging pandemic

and no vaccine. Maybe you would have gotten a visit sooner if you weren’t such a vile, petty, little tyrant.

[underpants]

8. Abbott is the epitome of "P. O. S. "

[gab13by13]

9. I saw pictures of President Biden next to a fence,

did he ever go to the wall?😊

[djacq]

10. Damn if you do. Damn if you don't.

[Jilly_in_VA]

11. Abbott

can go f*ck himself, and I wish he would. That would be an interesting contortion to see.....

[grumpyduck]

12. Oh, Greg, shove it up your fucking ass with a telephone pole. nt

[Bobstandard]

13. Abbot, Desantis et al boost the open border canard

Joe and other Dems should go on repeat with the absolutely true observation that it’s republicans who keep saying the borders are open. They stop saying it when there’s a republican president, even though the problem continues at about the same rate, despite locking up children and treating the adults like animals.

They claim Christian values but ignore The Word: Do not oppress a foreigner; you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners, because you were foreigners in Egypt. (Exodus 23

[rsdsharp]

14. Apparently the little prick didn't have the balls

to shake a bony finger in the President’s face like the the former Witch of the West Jan Brewer.

[pwb]

15. Joe says

you see these balls? Fuck off.

[bdamomma]

16. President Biden

should have asked Abbott about the busloads of people he's trafficking across the US.

[sakabatou]

44. Yup.

Abbot is a human trafficker.

[Meadowoak]

17. Where's Paul Ryan when you need him, he could push A butt and

His wheelchair off a cliff.

[Evolve Dammit]

18. Should have given him a knee to the face. Fucking seditionist.

[nakocal]

20. So Abbott is admitting the President Biden

inherited the problems at the border from Trump.

[yourout]

21. I wish Joe would have said....."Abbott...your a real piece of shit as a human being"

[PatrickforB]

22. Gee. I thought it was Trump's policies that created the thousands of

angry Texas property owners. Remember? Trump tried to escheat that land to the government and had a rebellion on his hands.

Oh, that's right.

1. Republicans screw things up.

2. A Democrat gets elected.

3. Republicans blame the Democrat for the problems the Republican party created.

4 Republicans are elected based on this ginned up resentment.

5. REPEAT.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

23. "Greg, what do you think could happen to a person on POTUS's shit list?"

[Beautiful Disaster]

24. So he couldn't say it to his face - had to do it in a letter? What a coward.

[Chili Pepper]

43. That's the first thing I thought of

When I read the post.

Only a coward does that!

[Bayard]

52. Little chickenshit!

They're face to face, and he hands the president a LETTER?! No guts, no communication skills.

Wonder if he also put his explanation for busing migrants to VP Harris's home in there too?

[turbinetree]

25. This asshole parent's where immigrants....lets ask the following Natives if they want him there

you know squatters on their land.....I don't think so....he should get a letter from the below Natives and ask and then ask to to leave....racists jerk....

Comanche
Alabama–Coushatta , Creek
Kickapoo , Fox, Sauk, and Shawnee
Ysleta del Sur Pueblo

[moonshinegnomie]

26. biden should have tossed it on the ground

dropped trou and taken a dump on it

[Desert Dog]

28. Fix your power grid

..before more people die.

That and the immigration issue have been around a lot longer than 2 years. The brain dead GOP think that President Biden invented immigration.

He should have crushed the paper in one hand and thrown it in his face.

[area51]

47. That, & don't forget Abbott's insane promise

that he would get rid of rape in Texas.

[panader0]

29. Has Biden changed any of TFG's border policies? If not, Abbott should be scolding TFG, not Joe.

I still believe that there are some right wingers telling migrants that it's a good time to come to the US.

[Polybius]

45. He wanted to end Title 42

But the Supreme Court said no.

[Lunabell]

30. He should've torn it up.

And thrown it in that fascist's ugly fucking face!! That's what I'd like to have seen.

[GreenWave]

31. Make Abbott prove he got the boosters otherwise book him for trying to kill POTUS

[vlyons]

32. Just more kabuki theater -- Texas has a $24 billion budget surplus !!!

So what has Abbott done? Busing 50 immigrants to VP Harris house on Christmas eve is not a solution. It's also not too Christ-like. Not that it much matters to Abbott.

Joe is far above saying mean nasty things and acting out aggression with hostile gestures. Joe's style would be to simply ask what Abbott he thinks about the proposal he just made in El Paso. Our POTUS is the adult in the room.

[LiberalFighter]

33. Abbott needs to be sent to a nursing home.

[Diamond_Dog]

34. What a fucking POS Abbott is

He always looks like he just sucked on a lemon.

Joe should tell that asshat, You know, I came down here in good faith to address this problem in person, but, hey, you don’t want me here, fine. I’ll leave and you can deal with it yourself, you asshole.

[DemocraticPatriot]

35. I suppose abbott did not start screaming about this,

until the moment after President Joe Biden was sworn into office....



FUCK YOU, GREG ABBOTT!
Somebody should have "done something about" you years earlier.....

[Wounded Bear]

36. Biden to Abbott: "Your incorrect opinion is duly noted..."

[Paladin]

37. Blow it out your ass, Abbott. (nt)

[calimary]

54. My sentiments exactly.

And explosively!

[Roy Rolling]

39. John Lennon knew his type

“One thing you can’t hide, is when you’re crippled inside “.

[BillyBobBrilliant]

40. This limp-dicked asshole

( the governor of the state in which I reside) doesn’t want workable immigration policy. That would take away one of his strongest campaign issues, and his best reason for squandering tax payer dollars, rather than addressing the needs of the citizenry.

[dflprincess]

42. I've never understood the point in a politician going to "observe" the border

When you consider the necessary security circus that accompanies a president everywhere, all it does is take resources away from local law enforcement if only for a few hours.

[SouthernDem4ever]

48. Dear Abbott

You're two centuries too late since you belong in the dark ages.

[PortTack]

49. VP Harris was at the border not long after the inauguration, other cabinet members as well

F..k you ab-butt…

Geez why do ppl from Tx keep giving this guy power? It’s nuts..actually SICK!!

[LudwigPastorius]

50. Shouldn't Abbott be at a Washington Republican orgy?

I hear there's an opening ever since Madison Cawthorn got run out of town.

[Sparky 1]

51. Thom Hartman says every time Dems are in power the Repubs shout "The border is wide open!" . . .

. . . This gets heard in all the southern countries who are suffering internal strife. As a direct result, thousands leave their homes and posessions and flee on foot to the border that ISN'T open. Some (including children) die on this horrible journey, and many are robbed and raped. This is a direct result of what the Rethugs do *knowingly* so that they can accuse Dems of mishandling the border. Thom Hartmann says if you don't believe it, google "open border" along with prominent Repub names and you'll see it's true. Then google prominent Dem names and you'll see no Dem ever said the border was open. This should make us all furious.

[duhneece]

57. Great summary

This has been my response but you say it clearly

[LiberalFighter]

56. Abbott knows how to write?

[hamsterjill]

58. Sue Abbott for busing immigrants

Human trafficking.

[twodogsbarking]

59. He's been busy.

[Cha]

60. Fucking Shithole Coward.
