Holy hell.
One of the most disastrous interviews I've ever seen.
Asked if voters care about the economy and Trump's ballroom obsession.
Abbott: "I pressed them repeatedly... these people were ebullient. They could never be happier."
Karl: "Maybe this was a self-chosen crowd?"
Abbott: "No. No. No."
Then pivots to bringing up Mamdani repeatedly, a mayor nearly two thousand miles away, to explain Texas.
Worth remembering: this whole redistricting mess in the House started because Abbott bent the knee and rammed through new maps at Trump's request.
Now he can't even answer a basic question about his own voters.
