.@GovAbbott was in El Paso today, where the horrific racist-fueled massacre took place on August 3. The terrorist confessed he was targeting Mexicans and immigrants.
The Gov sent out a hate filled campaign fundraising letter before the attack and then recently, a racist tweet.https://twitter.com/ajcorchado/status/1167160278997458946 …
He paints immigrants & border communities as dangerous. Today he had an opportunity to rehumanize the people he’s dehumnanized. Instead, he blamed *someone* -- not sure who, saying, “mistakes were made,” and that “a performance correction has been made.” Not. Good. Enough.
So the Governor sends out letter with his name on it but doesn't have the mettle or dignity the office requires to take personal responsibility? How embarrassing to all Texans.
Well, you know, Pablo Escobar made some mistakes too...
He's not even 1/2 the governor Texas needs. A big, vibrant, diverse state needs real leadership. We're never going to get that from Abbott.
Ah, the mark of a true leader. Throw "someone" under the bus for making a "mistake", but don't disavow the racist, hate-filled language in a campaign letter that served to do nothing more than put another target on Hispanics and Mexicans.
I had a friend and colleague years ago who used to say, "Whenever a message comes in the passive voice, you know someone is getting screwed over."
