Biden opened the borders and isn’t taking responsibility. Biden is letting fentanyl cross the border and isn’t taking responsibility. Biden is driving up fuel costs and isn’t taking responsibility. Biden is driving up inflation and isn’t taking responsibility. How’s that for taking responsibility, leftie?
@@dailyvictory6656 Nope. Abbott lied. There is no open borders policy in place: Proof? Do border agents exist? If they were truth open borders, why would the USA needs a single border agents? The governor of Texas is the head of the executive and legislative branch of the state government and is the commander in chief of the Texas Military. In other words, he could have tried to push for a few laws to bring some bureaucrats to help the paper works of these migrants, have assistance to border security that cooperate with the federal, have better policing against fantanyl, have drug testing site for drug addicts which act as a point of entry towards rehabs. Instead, he send buses around in a completely counter productive manner, and do different things to make life harder for federal agents. Abbott lied like a dog.
Abbott disappointed me, I voted for him once. Im not a liberal, but Beto brought more to the table than Abbott. I don’t care about the parties, I care about actions. Gregg has failed and those are facts. Not another year, Beto you got my vote.
It's absolutely refreshing to hear you say that. We need to get away from supporting parties. Nothing Abbott said I believe. And our poor women. We are all confused on how to help them. I paid over 200.00 per month in my electric bill. So Abbott lied about that as well.
Sadly, Beto wouldn’t get anything done. He’s saying sweet words, everything ppl want to hear him say. What is the reality? Its that these issues are complicated and contain a lot of red tape.
That was my question too. Rape and incest are not always immediately reported. And some of these victims are not taken seriously so time by the time it is, the time frame for Plan B is over. How ridiculously unrealistic.
I truly think the moderators did a great job of keeping both candidates in check and did a VERY good job of "clarification" of statements. They didn't let the candidates sidestep answering questions very often. The moderators basically said, "You didn't answer the question" by repeating the question to each candidate. Good on them.
They were way better than the national debate moderators. Beto was allowed to continue to go over, even though they would tell him after to stay with in the time.
@@shahn1900 what debate were you watching? They gave the same time to each. Maybe you should have listened to the rules at the beginning. The moderators were in control of the time and Beto is the only one who went over time and time again. Abbot went over twice and Beto went over ever time.
Or you're just dumb lol how about looking at the actual causes rather than simply saying unfactual crap. The truth is you don't know why bill has increased and you're to lazy to find out why must be a democrat.
Rape is not controversial enough for Republican leaders to concern themselves with. They know that it doesn’t move the needle enough with their voting base. Unless it’s “illegal aliens” doing the raping. Trump used that line very effectively in one of his very first public statements when running for President.
I'd agree with you if that was true, but I haven't heard of one woman in this country that got life for having an abortion. I agree that you have a right to an abortion, but not up until the moment of birth which is what leftists have pushed for. It shouldn't take you months to decide whether to terminate or not, I agree with a woman's right to choose, but not without limits.
Beto to every position: I never said that. Yeah, okay... flip flopping 101. Can I ask how this person won his primary when he failed to win a bid for Senate?
All Abbott did was blame everyone else! Where is his accountability? What are his plans? After this debate I'm not voting for Abbott again. He has NO solutions
All Francis orourke did was cry about abbott blaming him for things out of his control, while not answering questions, he is the epitome of a politician lol. While failing at running for president “hell yes we are gonna take your ar15 your ak47” while running for gov of Texas “I think it’s Texans rights to own ar15s” and when asked directly if he wants them banned yes or no he gives a different answer. He is a bleeding politician
Beto has a character and trust problem. When faced with a situation where he was involved in an accident he tried to flee instead of checking to see if he had hurt anyone. I was involved in an accident under similar circumstances and knowing I would be arrested but could easily get away, I stopped wanting to make sure the person that I hit was ok. I grew up in El Paso and know his family and their political history that is ripe with corruption. He continues to flip on issues trying to get traction by sensationalizing every possible political issue and build fear. I'm not saying that Abbott is great, I'm not even a republican. I'm simply saying that Abbott does what he says and has led this state through historic gains in the Texas economy. I don't believe that Beto or Abbott will get the real source of the shootings (and other possible mass killings) under control by addressing the real issue. There are many ways a person could commit this crime. The school I went to as a child had dozens and dozens of bomb threats and several attempted bombings by a mentally troubled disgruntled ex employee. There was an attempted mass killing here in Texas on our university campus with a knife. The SXSW massacre was directed by a mentally disturbed man in a truck. Addressing mental health services, background checks, and preventative care for those who are identified as risk factors would be something that could begin to change these outcomes. There's nothing wrong with ensuring that we have the right background checks but that only addresses guns. Let's addresses the source of the problem. That's the only way to start moving that needle toward a positive outcome in preventing these attacks.
@@roddquinn6347 you're for sure chronically online watching those stupid feminist she get roasted videos that will make anybody look dumb ,touch some grass republican.
Abbott spent A LOT of time pointing out the issues in Texas and putting that on Biden, but those are still issues in HIS state and that reflects poorly on Abbott. He didn’t mention some of the best attributes about Texas until his closing statement and that's the worst time to make that argument. He needed to point out the great things about Texas so he could prove that he was a good Governor. Abbott basically didn’t make his case for why he was a successful Governor.
shut up clown. we are way past the point of your stupid little opinion of "oh, this guy did so great in the his rebuttal." nobody cares. Civil war is coming soon. choose a side.
@@ArmyAdam I agree with you on that. The polls don't show Beto winning this at all. But to be fair the same polls had Hillary winning over Trump by a landslide, those polls were very wrong.
I agree- it’s crazy that he didn’t bring up the fact that since early 2020 he has been dealing with Covid restrictions and protocols. He should have boasted his record of re opening Texas early when Beto was all over media saying Abbot was wrong for doing so. This saved countless businesses and gave people their lives back, and The studies are clear that lockdowns were detrimental to mental health.
Be careful when politicians cannot answer a question directly without throwing emotion into the wheel. Real leaders keep their composure. Good debate and kudos to the moderators who did a great job. As an independent, I could not tell the political leanings of any of the 3 moderators, and that's exactly how it should be. 👍
Obviously Abbott is not perfect but Beto just sound broken... Beto obviously does not know what he is talking about and just kept attacking Abbott every chance he get... May God Bless Texas!!!
I have to say that abbott Irish and looked played out . Beto looked tired , from hitting it hard . I'm with beto get it bra only real gets real response.
@@junlorenzana4493 you think Beto sounds broken...? but not the man who doesnt know any other phrases besides "they wanna take your guns", "immigrants bad" and "joe biden bad" ??
Abbott is so stiff! And his closing statement was such rehearsed boilerplate! I recoiled watching him deliver some of the statements. He looked very weak tonight!
Beto confidently lies. I don't want my guns taken away which Beto lied about. He claimed Cruz was lying about him taking guns in that debate and then declared he would confiscate them when running for president.
He didn’t say democratic led cities, he said the larger cities that said they were sanctuary cities. If they didn’t want illegals then they shouldn’t have labeled themselves as sanctuary cities.
Lmao! The democrats are the ones who invited them in the first place. "Thanks Abbot. Say less." Meanwhile democratic led cities the party that caused the border issue complains to no end about having to recieve the illegal immigrants. You talking one would almost think that the democrats are receiving them gracefully when in truth you complain about the consequences of your actions and then try to turn the issues your party caused on republicans as though they're the ones who announced to the world that the U.S. has an uninforced southern border. That was Biden and his administration by the way lol. So like the democrats to start a problem and then try to act like the cure to the problem they initially started.
Your beliefs on adoption are nice Greg... but FORCING women to be brood mares for other people is WRONG! We've seen how the TX CPS system treats children. They don't need more!
Do go on but also are you saying that you believe to solve some problem you found in how anyone treats a child you think we should kill it before this tragedy can transpire?
If you ask me to have any form of law that punishes any form of so called wrong doing one must define what's inasent and blameless now if life also has any legal right would it not for sake of sanity start at the most inasent of all?
BS...The power grid kept up cuz thousands and thousands of people installed whole home generators. Our electricity went out several times and our generator picked it up from there throughout the summer. Just keep up lying.
When cops are on suspension are they getting paid? Will you hold all law-enforcement officers accountable for their actions including not paying them. If they’re found not guilty then they can receive backpay
That's an idiot statement. If the federal laws (Biden's administration) didn't push for open borders (basically inviting them), Texas wouldn't be having the invasion its going through.
You do realize when Dems can't get a bill passed, they attach something to it like "mental health" to get it passed when actually only a small percentage will help those with mental health issues
I can’t believe Beto’s sheriff buddy and donor had law enforcement stand down while children were slaughtered. So yes considering the leftist sheriff sat back and allowed the carnage and stopped anyone willing to act it could’ve been worse. Also the shooter if laws were enforced never should’ve had a gun to begin with. It’s almost like the left ignores facts like criminals and psychopaths don’t obey the law. Rape is illegal and still rapists rape. Live in reality morons.
@@dailyvictory6656 it did get worse! Not only was the killing of those kids and school teachers bad but to find out they stood outside the classroom while the shooter was in the classroom murdering kids for over an hour before they did anything is ridiculous.
I DON'T GIVE. A RAT'S ASS WHAT NAMES YOU CALL ME! I MAKE MY OWN DECISIONS AND NO ONE MAKES THEM. FOR ME! I VOTE FOR GOV. GREG ABBOTT AND NO IT WILL ALWAYS BE! SO I STAND MY GROUND! DO WHAT YOU WANT BUT I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR THE COUNTRY I LOVE AND WHERE I WAS BORN ON!😡🇺🇲
I agree, I like to make my own decisions….. especially when it come to my healthcare and reproductive rights. Women want the same human rights and respect over their bodies. I may have been a Conservative but this administration wants to take away people’s rights. I thought Republicans were about personal rights ?
I don't think it's fair to point out someone's disability but I think a townhall debate would bring too much attention to his disability and not his platform and arguments. A townhall would be an advantage for Beto solely based on appearances, it shouldn't be that way but sadly it is. I get it though.
@@jessec3974 because I have to explain it to you like you are 5. Abbott is in a wheelchair, Beto can walk. In a townhall the candidates have to walk around and face the audience when they ask their questions.
I wanna know what he means by Chicago and New York are bigger cities to handle immigrants. Well how much bigger are they compared to Houston, Dallas/Fort Worth and San Antonio? Texas is the biggest state! Make it make sense
You clearly did not learn anything from US History because Texas is no longer the largest state that was back in the 1840’s, the largest state in the US is Alaska, now Texas is the largest state in the Intercontinental US. Also New York is the largest city in the US and one of the largest in the world. Chicago is third largest in the US, and Houston is fourth but we’re overtaking Chicago and becoming third. DFW isn’t even the largest city in Texas, much less SA.
@@Stigm410 I never said the cities in Texas was larger, however, Texas has numerous large cities but yet he still seems to think he needs to bus them elsewhere, makes you wonder why
Beto, speaking like a true politician. So many promises but can he truly get things done like he says? I highly doubt it. I truly believe Texas will go down just like California if Beto wins. Look at Democratic states and compare to Rep states.. c’mon. Put feelings aside and look at the future.
Um, LOOK AT THE PRESENT that Abbott has created. Get your head out of your ass and use your brain for once. Look at the Dem states compared to Republican states? Um PLEASE do, corruption, malpractice, breach of ethics, greed, I can go on! Is quite rampant. Get off Fox news sweetie, and read a book.
I see more studies supporting what Beto claimed which is that Texas is dead last in mental health availability. Essentially you have to go to prison for mental healthcare access.
Let me get this straight, Families of Uvalde shooting victims, are not allowed to be at the debate. So there won't be the people that Greg Abbott is supposed to serve to be allowed at the debate by Greg Abbott's request? That's not leadership, that is the definition of being a coward. That's as bad as telling these families, that it could have been worse after they lost their children.😡
Beto wants to marginalize the Hispanic community by importing more illegals to take their jobs , ie Gardner’s, handy men , construction workers … etc .
It’s great that Abbott is catholic and has some personal beliefs, but not everyone else in his state have the same personal beliefs. Both are allowed religious FREEDOM, and Abbotts justification of his policies don’t take into account that freedom.
@@ArmyAdam If you look 👀 at the new polls Abbott only leading by 5% but remember those polls have a 5% margin of error. Which means Beto has a great chance of winning this election.
"What would you do to alleviate the financial burden of immigration on border communities" Well that's a loaded question if I've ever heard one. Crazy thought, what if having more productive workers is good for the economy?
That's a GREAT point. We have a HUGE labor shortage and Texas is a HUGE business state. Businesses would benefit immensely from a surplus of workers. Instead of sending immigrants to other states, let them work here, pay taxes, abide by laws and do everything that is expected of a Texas citizen while they seek citizenship. If their citizenship isn't approved then we can send them to sanctuary cities or deport them.
so true. i would hope beto and other democrats believe this to be true. unfortunately you have to be careful campaigning tht way if you want to win majority vote.
We need more SKILLED workers, not more dishwashers and lawn mowers who bring their families and clog up our school systems and emergency rooms. Illegals cost taxpayers almost $120 billion a year and don’t say they make that up in taxes they pay because they only pay taxes when they buy something, they don’t pay taxes from their paychecks because they’re paid under the table.
Abbott has been handicapped for decades yet is 10x more of a standup guy than Robert O'Rourke. Will y'all please stop calling this actor "Beto"? Didn't he get that nickname from his Hispanic nanny?
I live in an area that gets hydroelectric power and my electric rate nearly doubled.

Yes Texas has been leading the nation in economics most of that time so what's the failure?

Considering 90% of Texas is on a monopolized grid made up of private investors , those investors own 90% of Texas. The government has absolutely no power over these grids. Abbot just wants you to think the government does so we think he works for the people. In truth your Texas representatives work for the private investors. That is why the city of Austin is putting very little info about Elons current move, to secure a permit that allows him to dump 140,000 gallons of treated waste water per day into the Colorado River. Before this the city of Austin pushed to ban the homeless with an ulterior motive to put 620 acres of parklands along the Colorado River up for bids. Of course Elon the richest snake in the world bought these lands to destroy our WaWa. Meanwhile the rest of America is more entertained by the notion of having free speech in Twitter. They just quote what they hear. That ain't free speech. This comment here is speaking freely what is being witnessed. Free speech comes by freeing your mind. Not by the laws of jack asses out to become unicorns.
If Beto was a Californian he wouldn't have side-stepped the gun question. You think Gavin Newsom would sit there and not say, "I want to ban all assault rifles, extended magazines and people with mental disabilites or domestic violence charges from ever touching a loaded weapon". Beto is definitely a moderate for this election.
The only difference between California's homeless population and Texas' homeless population is that California's homeless have full comprehensive healthcare and mental healtcare.
Texas make sure to get them out of office who left out town when is a disaster him and the others crus want to Mexico to Cancun this man doesn't not care about the people All they want is to be in power think about that
Red Flag laws can only lead to a terrible end. Who gets to decide what constitutes a red flag? When will they be extended to encase more than “legal” gun ownership? Total ban and no limits on abortion are both probably wrong; but the law needs to written by the legislature, and the governor should just sign it. I fully support the separation of powers.
Yeah why not just let mob rule take the stage, we are the people after all. Let’s not let the viewing audience at home which is far larger be swayed by a small sampling of University students. Your definition of voice stifling is sophomoric at best.
@@Curious_Traveler Abbotts conditions to debate Beto was one debate without a live audience because he knows that his views are archaic as well as not popular with voters. If there was a crowd there, he would have been booed off stage.
Duh? Abbot had been lied to and Beto was there crashing a news conference. And it is still true! The two survivors had to play dead for over an hour while the police waited in the hallway.
I think more time is needed, this short time frame will not pull out the full liberal agenda that bet0 has in mind. The is a punk and is not qualified to be governor of Texas, maybe Illinois, but not here.
Moderator asked him twice and Abbott won’t take responsibility. So into blame. Yuck. How does that help if He won’t even admit he’s at fault? Thinks he’s perfect like narcissist Trump?
Just because the buck stops with Abbott, in the real world it doesn’t mean he’s responsible for everything that happens. A person is only as good as the information they are given. He can’t read minds and he also can’t control the actions of others. If you think Beto can do all that and would take responsibility for anything than you’re a fool. Beto flip flops on everything he’s ever said and never takes a stance on anything. He goes whichever way the radical leftist winds blow him. Every statistic he sighted he lied and made up. But that’s what you leftists like. You like politicians to piss all over you and tell you it’s rain.
California is doing better than Texas! Their GDP is the best in the country, their State budget and spending are in better shape than Texas too! For a Blue State they're more fiscally responsible than Texas.
I never thought I would be this pro Republican in my life. As a libertarian all I can say is please, before you vote for someone like Beto, look at the places that are run by democrats. It’s all public record. You can look up the crime rate, you can look up the environment, you can look up every single piece of the puzzle. I’m not saying Abbott is perfect and he’s far from it but he is by far the better choice. I lived in a blue state and I came here to get away from that garbage. I cringe and cry every time I see a Beto sign. He sat there and evaded and deflected from every important issue. They show him on video flip-flopping. He plays to the audience and he’s playing us. Please make a good decision because we all want an affordable, nice clean place to live.
Not ALL Blue States are how you described and not ALL Red States are perfect environments for everyone. This isn't about Blue and Red, it's about who the best candidate for all Texans, not just conservatives. Beto O'Rourke is the best candidate for the people. He has a stronger stance on gun control, women's rights and he seems to be an overall better human being. Listening to Abbott lie and twist stories makes me realize he is not only an ineffective leader, he's not a good person.
@@sayitloudblcknproud The sad part is, if Beto does win as things go flying downhill, you will blame everyone and everything but him. I have to hope that most Texans have common sense at this point. It is unreal to me that people will believe that a woman taking a Plan B pill is worse than her having a surgical procedure that actually has risks to her health and life. Yes abortion is surgery and it has risks. It’s not about health. It makes me sick that anyone could support abortion knowing that the founder of Planned Parenthood and the founder of abortion was Margaret Sanger, one of the worlds worst eugenicists and part of the KKK. That anybody could promote abortion knowing that there are people making billions of dollars off the sale of the baby pieces 🤮. It was never about choice and I’m amazed at how many stupid people will fall for it. I really wish Abbott would’ve thought about the fact that the Plan B pill costs about 1/16 of the cost of an abortion. I know he wasn’t thinking about it but that was the most ridiculous argument Beto could’ve made 🙄. But in general the rape and incest argument is a terrible argument to begin with since it’s less than 1% of abortions. In fact, clinics couldn’t even stay in business if they relied only on true rape and incest cases 🤷🏼♀️ It’s sad that people just refuse to teach their children and raise them right. There are a lot of choices made up to that choice. Specifically I taught my daughter about protection not only against pregnancy but also against diseases. There is still one that can kill you and even if you live, the medicine is extremely expensive for people with HIV. How embarrassing would it be to have gonorrhea or chlamydia. Why not just teach our kids responsibility and how to protect themselves? It is about Democrat versus Republican. It is very easy to see who runs things better. Like I said Abbott is not perfect but he is far better!! They have shown Beto contradicting himself on video in this very debate and there are still people who are willing to defend him. 🤦🏼♀️ The Democrat party began as the party of oppression. They fought for slavery and against desegregation. They are still the party of oppression, they just found better tactics and a whole lot of stupid people to follow right along. You have people like me and even recently I saw Joe Rogan who are hard-core libertarians that used to vote for some Democrats wouldn’t vote for one for any amount of money. They continually screw things up. It’s so blatant and easy to see. The crime is up over the last couple years because of the border being open. Everything Abbott is saying is true. The only people who don’t believe it are brainwashed. That’s OK, democrats have lost most of their independent voters with horrible decisions. Most of the independent voters, such as myself, we look at the facts and what we can prove. What we can prove show Democrats do not run things well. I doubt you bothered to look up any public records or actually verified anything I said before you added your comment. I would recommend it but that’s your choice. Like I said just hoping that Texans have common sense. Otherwise, another one bites the dust.
No, Abbott is the Champion of Unborn Texans, if he can stand up for the smallest in our society, and be a voice for them then he has my vote because I know he will stand up for all Texans. Beto hypocrite saying he’ll defend the kids from gun violence but he’s ready to legalize abortion on demand… you realize that’s the only issue he has not flipped on, he flipped on gun control, defunding the police, but he didn’t on abortion on demand, his true colors, his pay masters are the abortion lobby.

Abbott to every question: it’s Biden’s fault. Yeah, okay… Deflecting 101. Can I get a refund on that 4 billion dollars spent on nothing please?
Beto to every position: I never said that. Yeah, okay... flip flopping 101. Can I ask how this person won his primary when he failed to win a bid for Senate?
@@bobbleheadbob because Joe Biden
All Abbott did was blame everyone else! Where is his accountability? What are his plans? After this debate I'm not voting for Abbott again. He has NO solutions
Yes, Vote for Beto who has never accomplished anything! 👎🏽
All Francis orourke did was cry about abbott blaming him for things out of his control, while not answering questions, he is the epitome of a politician lol. While failing at running for president “hell yes we are gonna take your ar15 your ak47” while running for gov of Texas “I think it’s Texans rights to own ar15s” and when asked directly if he wants them banned yes or no he gives a different answer. He is a bleeding politician
Want to vote democratic move to California 😂
Beto has a character and trust problem. When faced with a situation where he was involved in an accident he tried to flee instead of checking to see if he had hurt anyone. I was involved in an accident under similar circumstances and knowing I would be arrested but could easily get away, I stopped wanting to make sure the person that I hit was ok.
I grew up in El Paso and know his family and their political history that is ripe with corruption.
He continues to flip on issues trying to get traction by sensationalizing every possible political issue and build fear. I'm not saying that Abbott is great, I'm not even a republican. I'm simply saying that Abbott does what he says and has led this state through historic gains in the Texas economy.
I don't believe that Beto or Abbott will get the real source of the shootings (and other possible mass killings) under control by addressing the real issue. There are many ways a person could commit this crime. The school I went to as a child had dozens and dozens of bomb threats and several attempted bombings by a mentally troubled disgruntled ex employee. There was an attempted mass killing here in Texas on our university campus with a knife. The SXSW massacre was directed by a mentally disturbed man in a truck. Addressing mental health services, background checks, and preventative care for those who are identified as risk factors would be something that could begin to change these outcomes. There's nothing wrong with ensuring that we have the right background checks but that only addresses guns. Let's addresses the source of the problem. That's the only way to start moving that needle toward a positive outcome in preventing these attacks.
Abbott is a person that don't care of Texas people. I pray Beto wins
Mental health he said yet republicans vote against mental health in school
What is a woman dear Democrat?
@@roddquinn6347 you're for sure chronically online watching those stupid feminist she get roasted videos that will make anybody look dumb ,touch some grass republican.

Abbott spent A LOT of time pointing out the issues in Texas and putting that on Biden, but those are still issues in HIS state and that reflects poorly on Abbott. He didn’t mention some of the best attributes about Texas until his closing statement and that's the worst time to make that argument. He needed to point out the great things about Texas so he could prove that he was a good Governor.
Abbott basically didn’t make his case for why he was a successful Governor.
Abbots is up 8 points in Texas .. Beto has no chance
shut up clown. we are way past the point of your stupid little opinion of "oh, this guy did so great in the his rebuttal." nobody cares. Civil war is coming soon. choose a side.
@@ArmyAdam I agree with you on that. The polls don't show Beto winning this at all. But to be fair the same polls had Hillary winning over Trump by a landslide, those polls were very wrong.
@@ArmyAdam Also should mention that Blue voters don't have landlines or answer their phones for pollsters.
I agree- it’s crazy that he didn’t bring up the fact that since early 2020 he has been dealing with Covid restrictions and protocols. He should have boasted his record of re opening Texas early when Beto was all over media saying Abbot was wrong for doing so. This saved countless businesses and gave people their lives back, and The studies are clear that lockdowns were detrimental to mental health.
Is abbot debating Beto or Biden.
One of the best debates I’ve watched in awhile they clips they used so no one could run away from what they said very smart great debate
Be careful when politicians cannot answer a question directly without throwing emotion into the wheel. Real leaders keep their composure.
Good debate and kudos to the moderators who did a great job. As an independent, I could not tell the political leanings of any of the 3 moderators, and that's exactly how it should be. 👍
Well said.

Obviously Abbott is not perfect but Beto just sound broken... Beto obviously does not know what he is talking about and just kept attacking Abbott every chance he get... May God Bless Texas!!!
I have to say that abbott Irish and looked played out . Beto looked tired , from hitting it hard . I'm with beto get it bra only real gets real response.

Sounds like he should learn personal responsibility.
The border crisis is a federal issue, honey.
They aren’t his failures
Abbott love Joe Biden
Abbott is so stiff! And his closing statement was such rehearsed boilerplate! I recoiled watching him deliver some of the statements. He looked very weak tonight!
Very weak. He is a broken record of repeated Republican lies and deflection. It is clear that Abbott has had his chance. Change is needed for Texans
I disagree
People often look week when they know their answers are not honest and moral.
Beto confidently lies. I don't want my guns taken away which Beto lied about. He claimed Cruz was lying about him taking guns in that debate and then declared he would confiscate them when running for president.
We gotta get abbot outta here period
If you want Texas to sink like Cali just say that.
We got to give Abbott a period and get it out of office.
Beto for Texas!
All I heard was Biden Biden Biden
“Democratic led cities are more capable of handling these immigration issues than republican ones.” Huh. Thanks Abbott. Say less.
He didn’t say democratic led cities, he said the larger cities that said they were sanctuary cities. If they didn’t want illegals then they shouldn’t have labeled themselves as sanctuary cities.
I think what he meant by that was that Democratic led cities are more comfortable around brown people.
So then you shouldn't have a problem with them being shipped over to any democrat city right?
Lmao! The democrats are the ones who invited them in the first place. "Thanks Abbot. Say less." Meanwhile democratic led cities the party that caused the border issue complains to no end about having to recieve the illegal immigrants. You talking one would almost think that the democrats are receiving them gracefully when in truth you complain about the consequences of your actions and then try to turn the issues your party caused on republicans as though they're the ones who announced to the world that the U.S. has an uninforced southern border. That was Biden and his administration by the way lol. So like the democrats to start a problem and then try to act like the cure to the problem they initially started.
Abbott stumbled all evening trying to come up with the truth.
Your beliefs on adoption are nice Greg... but FORCING women to be brood mares for other people is WRONG! We've seen how the TX CPS system treats children. They don't need more!
Do go on but also are you saying that you believe to solve some problem you found in how anyone treats a child you think we should kill it before this tragedy can transpire?
If you ask me to have any form of law that punishes any form of so called wrong doing one must define what's inasent and blameless now if life also has any legal right would it not for sake of sanity start at the most inasent of all?

I couldn’t believe Abbot said “It could’ve been worse”
I can’t believe Beto’s sheriff buddy and donor had law enforcement stand down while children were slaughtered. So yes considering the leftist sheriff sat back and allowed the carnage and stopped anyone willing to act it could’ve been worse. Also the shooter if laws were enforced never should’ve had a gun to begin with. It’s almost like the left ignores facts like criminals and psychopaths don’t obey the law. Rape is illegal and still rapists rape. Live in reality morons.
Zero compassion. I wonder if he would have said that if that happened in a more affluent community.
@@dailyvictory6656 it did get worse! Not only was the killing of those kids and school teachers bad but to find out they stood outside the classroom while the shooter was in the classroom murdering kids for over an hour before they did anything is ridiculous.

Why didn't Abbott want any town hall debates? Is he scared to face the voters directly?
I don't think it's fair to point out someone's disability but I think a townhall debate would bring too much attention to his disability and not his platform and arguments.

Not bigger cities. Sanctuary cities. Meaning these cities do not enforce immigration law.
You clearly did not learn anything from US History because Texas is no longer the largest state that was back in the 1840’s, the largest state in the US is Alaska, now Texas is the largest state in the Intercontinental US. Also New York is the largest city in the US and one of the largest in the world. Chicago is third largest in the US, and Houston is fourth but we’re overtaking Chicago and becoming third.

"What would you do to alleviate the financial burden of immigration on border communities"
Well that's a loaded question if I've ever heard one. Crazy thought, what if having more productive workers is good for the economy?
That's a GREAT point. We have a HUGE labor shortage and Texas is a HUGE business state. Businesses would benefit immensely from a surplus of workers. Instead of sending immigrants to other states, let them work here, pay taxes, abide by laws and do everything that is expected of a Texas citizen while they seek citizenship. If their citizenship isn't approved then we can send them to sanctuary cities or deport them.
It would be a lot less costly to vet people for temporary work programs than hunt down and detain people. These people would also be paying taxes.
so true. i would hope beto and other democrats believe this to be true. unfortunately you have to be careful campaigning tht way if you want to win majority vote.
We need more SKILLED workers, not more dishwashers and lawn mowers who bring their families and clog up our school systems and emergency rooms. Illegals cost taxpayers almost $120 billion a year and don’t say they make that up in taxes they pay because they only pay taxes when they buy something, they don’t pay taxes from their paychecks because they’re paid under the table.
And Beto said he wanted to introduce a work program for immigrants... Go figure
Abbott has been handicapped for decades yet is 10x more of a standup guy than Robert O'Rourke. Will y'all please stop calling this actor "Beto"? Didn't he get that nickname from his Hispanic nanny?

Considering 90% of Texas is on a monopolized grid made up of private investors , those investors own 90% of Texas. The government has absolutely no power over these grids. Abbot just wants you to think the government does so we think he works for the people. In truth your Texas representatives work for the private investors. That is why the city of Austin is putting very little info about Elons current move, to secure a permit that allows him to dump 140,000 gallons of treated waste water per day into the Colorado River. Before this the city of Austin pushed to ban the homeless with an ulterior motive to put 620 acres of parklands along the Colorado River up for bids. Of course Elon the richest snake in the world bought these lands to destroy our WaWa. Meanwhile the rest of America is more entertained by the notion of having free speech in Twitter.

Just because the buck stops with Abbott, in the real world it doesn’t mean he’s responsible for everything that happens. A person is only as good as the information they are given. He can’t read minds and he also can’t control the actions of others. If you think Beto can do all that and would take responsibility for anything than you’re a fool. Beto flip flops on everything he’s ever said and never takes a stance on anything. He goes whichever way the radical leftist winds blow him. Every statistic he sighted he lied and made up.

I never thought I would be this pro Republican in my life. As a libertarian all I can say is please, before you vote for someone like Beto, look at the places that are run by democrats. It’s all public record. You can look up the crime rate, you can look up the environment, you can look up every single piece of the puzzle. I’m not saying Abbott is perfect and he’s far from it but he is by far the better choice. I lived in a blue state and I came here to get away from that garbage.

Not ALL Blue States are how you described and not ALL Red States are perfect environments for everyone. This isn't about Blue and Red, it's about who the best candidate for all Texans, not just conservatives. Beto O'Rourke is the best candidate for the people. He has a stronger stance on gun control, women's rights and he seems to be an overall better human being. Listening to Abbott lie and twist stories makes me realize he is not only an ineffective leader, he's not a good person.
@@sayitloudblcknproud The sad part is, if Beto does win as things go flying downhill, you will blame everyone and everything but him.
I have to hope that most Texans have common sense at this point. It is unreal to me that people will believe that a woman taking a Plan B pill is worse than her having a surgical procedure that actually has risks to her health and life. Yes abortion is surgery and it has risks. It’s not about health. It makes me sick that anyone could support abortion knowing that the founder of Planned Parenthood and the founder of abortion was Margaret Sanger, one of the worlds worst eugenicists and part of the KKK. That anybody could promote abortion knowing that there are people making billions of dollars off the sale of the baby pieces 🤮. It was never about choice and I’m amazed at how many stupid people will fall for it.
I really wish Abbott would’ve thought about the fact that the Plan B pill costs about 1/16 of the cost of an abortion. I know he wasn’t thinking about it but that was the most ridiculous argument Beto could’ve made 🙄. But in general the rape and incest argument is a terrible argument to begin with since it’s less than 1% of abortions. In fact, clinics couldn’t even stay in business if they relied only on true rape and incest cases 🤷🏼♀️ It’s sad that people just refuse to teach their children and raise them right. There are a lot of choices made up to that choice. Specifically I taught my daughter about protection not only against pregnancy but also against diseases. There is still one that can kill you and even if you live, the medicine is extremely expensive for people with HIV. How embarrassing would it be to have gonorrhea or chlamydia. Why not just teach our kids responsibility and how to protect themselves?
It is about Democrat versus Republican. It is very easy to see who runs things better. Like I said Abbott is not perfect but he is far better!! They have shown Beto contradicting himself on video in this very debate and there are still people who are willing to defend him. 🤦🏼♀️
The Democrat party began as the party of oppression. They fought for slavery and against desegregation. They are still the party of oppression, they just found better tactics and a whole lot of stupid people to follow right along.
You have people like me and even recently I saw Joe Rogan who are hard-core libertarians that used to vote for some Democrats wouldn’t vote for one for any amount of money. They continually screw things up. It’s so blatant and easy to see. The crime is up over the last couple years because of the border being open. Everything Abbott is saying is true. The only people who don’t believe it are brainwashed. That’s OK, democrats have lost most of their independent voters with horrible decisions. Most of the independent voters, such as myself, we look at the facts and what we can prove. What we can prove show Democrats do not run things well.
I doubt you bothered to look up any public records or actually verified anything I said before you added your comment. I would recommend it but that’s your choice. Like I said just hoping that Texans have common sense. Otherwise, another one bites the dust.
Well this native Texan will be voting for Beto. Abbott is a cancer to this state
No, Abbott is the Champion of Unborn Texans, if he can stand up for the smallest in our society, and be a voice for them then he has my vote because I know he will stand up for all Texans. Beto hypocrite saying he’ll defend the kids from gun violence but he’s ready to legalize abortion on demand… you realize that’s the only issue he has not flipped on, he flipped on gun control, defunding the police, but he didn’t on abortion on demand, his true colors, his pay masters are the abortion lobby.
@@sayitloudblcknproud who cares.
Abbott said shooting are cause by mental health not guns then says we have good mental health very confusingggggg
Texans, how much have your utility bills increased?
My electric was 11 cents 2 years ago. Now it's 24 cents
a ton, went from $100-$150 to now $250-$350. I live in a fucking apartment & it’s that bad. I can’t imagine owning a home right now.
Went from 340 to 660
3 questions in and Beto hasn’t said what HE WOULD DO.
Exactly I’m asking how???
I am from Asia. The blue guy is obviously winning.
Weasel. I keep seeing a photo of a weasel where the governor is supposed to be ….
Native Texan here voting for Beto and y’all should too
Move to California 😂
@@nrshahwan born and raised in Texas and I want the best for my state. If you think a man who has progressively made Texas worst in the last 8 years he has been in office is the best choice for governor then you should move to California

@@nrshahwan If Beto wins can I have your house?
Not mine
