TX Governor Debate Friday 7pm

[Gil Bang 25961]

teeing it up for Beto

[atomheartbevo 89697]

 

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19103]

That was a good answer by Beto on the confiscation question.

[Gil Bang 25961]

For Imma: 

? for beto: what can you do about mass shootings

Beto laying it out pretty solid with a fantastic answer.

[Celery Man 20965]

Beto won’t say he’s for or against taking away people’s assault rifles although he makes it clear it’s isn’t something that would be pursued as gov (not achievable versus red flag, background , etc)

[TexArcher 37900]

I want every parent out there to know that the lives of their children are more important to me than the NRA.

-- Beto

[YChang 3452]

Nice job of turning the mental health care talking point back on hot wheels 

[atomheartbevo 89697]

Amazed that Abbott would be against red flag laws in the debate.

[Gil Bang 25961]

Fucking Hotwheels talking faster than Jimbo

[chainsaw 9870]

I like this moderation and the "explain this clip" debate format. Wish they did it all the time for all races.

[Gil Bang 25961]

abortion question

Absolutely.

Politicians always quote each other to try to tear each other down.  Just show the clip and ask the person who said it to defend it.

I swear, politics wouldn't be the back-and-forth shitfest that it is if journalists would ask the tough questions.

[Gil Bang 25961]

@immamac follow 

 

 

[chainsaw 9870]

It will be great to see UTRGV open up a 17-7 lead against us with trick plays in 2032.

[Gil Bang 25961]

shit, sorry for longcat everybody.

[Gil Bang 25961]

Beto slamming HW on rapes

[atomheartbevo 89697]

They played the clip of “it could a been worse”

And then Abbott tried to throw law enforcement under the bus.

[chainsaw 9870]

"rapists enjoy more victims" he ain't wrong

[immamac 42859]

YouTube stream working. No need for play by play anymore. 
 

Abbott spending more time on rebuttals than actual substance. He’s on the ropes. Abbott sucks at this. 

[TexArcher 37900]

"You've been Governor for more than 7 years.  Why is crime up?"

"Austin defunded its police department and Beto doesn't say anything about that.  In Texas, we support our law enforcement officers, period.  And easy bail policy is to blame."

This fucking guy...

[YChang 3452]

Lol, nothing but scare tactic/rhetoric from Abbott

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19103]

LOL.  The Grid.  Abbott comes off really badly in this debate so far.

Um, weren't their curtailments and rolling black outs?

[Celery Man 20965]

play by play required or not need to make sure we comment on Abbott's mumbly response about prenatal vitamins and childcare assistance as an alternative to abortion for rape victims

I mean, he damn near said, "Look, I did the best I could to lock up all those criminals, but the Democrats cut my police force and let all those ni-, I mean criminals back out to commit more crimes and it hurts my stats!"

Motherfucker.

[Gil Bang 25961]

I repeat myself, but Abbott sounds like Jimbo after a  loss.

[TexArcher 37900]

"THE GRID IS MORE RELIABLE THAN IT'S EVER BEEN"

-- Greg Abbott, 9/30/22

[Beau Vine 54246]

Just turned it on to hear: "All Beto does is fear-monger." 

[C-Man 27230]

Beto is absolutely crushing Abbott because Abbott’s record is terrible.

I hope it matters.

[immamac 42859]

The TRS is enormous and has plenty to pay the CoL adjustment. 

[chainsaw 9870]

Reminds me of a hotseat coach's presser after a loss. Ain't much to say when your track record is so awful.

[tx 3 putt 76987]

the panel is doing an excellent job

[tx 3 putt 76987]

abbott is no answering any direct questions.

 

douche

Yes.  I'm a financial advisor and I used to work with teachers.  I did seminars on TRS and knew every inch of that program including the financials.  It has never, ever not been soluble enough to be able to afford a freaking COLA.  Abbott could actually claim some credit for that if the program had done what it could absolutely afford to do, if he'd only just given a little bit of a shit about human beings.

[immamac 42859]

He governs from his principles which are terrible and complete trash. 

[Celery Man 20965]

abbott delivered his adopted daughter from the womb and so we need more fascism

[Gengs1 2583]

The true and tried republicans tactic, don’t answer any question and talk about something else 

[Gil Bang 25961]

and now an irrelevant question from an idiot named Missy.

[Celery Man 20965]

Missy that's a stupid fucking question

as governor of texas how will you adjust mortgage rates and prevent a collapse of the financial system

[TexArcher 37900]

"I will never raise property taxes"

followed immediately by

"Property taxes are assessed at the local level"

How does anyone not spot the horseshit??

[Gil Bang 25961]

Weed question!   Go for it Beto!

[tx 3 putt 76987]

abbott discussing his responsibility on the crime rate -  blah, blah but austin !!!! blah but houston !!!! (never answered the question)

abbott answering if he's gone too far right - blah blah im a catholic and adopted a kid !!! (never answered the question)

 

beto - let's legal marijuana !

[Gil Bang 25961]

This format is shit.  15 seconds isn't long enough

The same people who spout thought and prayers after a bad event

[Celery Man 20965]

abbott's plan for the rest of the budget surplus

[Gil Bang 25961]

Really effective by Beto: you've had 8 years to get shit done, but now you're gonna do it?

[tx 3 putt 76987]

beto - if you want more property taxes, vote for abbott 

[chainsaw 9870]

It would be a bloodbath with an audience.

[Gil Bang 25961]

Abbott wants to cook the tax appraisals.  WTF.  

This debate sucks.  Too short.  This should be 3 hours, not 1 hour. 

[Celery Man 20965]

Just now, chainsaw said:

and abbott wouldn't do shit about it

[Gengs1 2583]

The greatest part about this is, Abbot will still win by 4-5 points cause people are dumb
