Hear what Texas said today, loud and clear: Your government belongs to you. And as your governor, I will never forget it. There will be no special set of rules for the wealthy and powerful. No looking the other way when someone in my own party does wrong.
The trust you have placed in me tonight is not a blank check. It is a sacred responsibility. And I intend to earn it every single day.

WHERE ARE OBAMA AND HIS ROYAL FAMILY? WHERE ARE THE CLINTONS? WHERE ARE THE METOOS? WHERE ARE THE BLMS? WHERE IS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY? IS THIS OLD SOCIALIST THE ONLY ONE WITH THE GUTS TO STAND FOR THE AMERICAN VALUES OF FREEDOM, DEMOCRACY, SELF DETERMINATION?
