    It’s a fact finding trip. He’s doing research to see if he hates asians as much as he hates latinos

    He’s not bringing “billions” to TX. This fuck only looks out for himself. I hope another tree falls on him.

        A tree fell on him, leaving him paralyzed. He then got a payout amount granted by the lawsuit settlement, totaling $8.9 million. He then championed legislation that limit lawsuits awards so a payout can’t exceed like $300k or so. I may be wrong on that figure but pretty much he said fuck you I got mine. He’s a piece of shit.

    To be fair, governors shouldn’t travel to disaster zones as the city has to spend resources on them like for protection and it takes away from disaster relief efforts.

      Yeah but tax payers funding his trip to Asia during a crisis isnt good either. He should have stayed in Austin and helped organize the disaster response.

    I mean I’m picking up what thr author is putting down but it’s not the fuckin titanic and it’s not like hes guna be a first responder. For how little politicians actually spend working I think it’s commendable he’s using his vacation time in such an efficient manner /s
