Was there any doubt which side he’d be on?
Former President and 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump has come out strongly in support of Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s fight against the Biden Administration to secure the border.
Trump shared a message on TRUTH Social, encouraging other states to back Abbott.
“When I was President, we had the most secure Border in History. Joe Biden has surrendered our Border, and is aiding and abetting a massive Invasion of millions of Illegal Migrants into the United States,” Trump declared on Truth Social. “Instead of fighting to protect our Country from this onslaught, Biden is, unbelievably, fighting to tie the hands of Governor Abbott and the State of Texas, so that the Invasion continues unchecked. In the face of this National Security, Public Safety, and Public Health Catastrophe, Texas has rightly invoked the Invasion Clause of the Constitution, and must be given full support to repel the Invasion.”
“We encourage all willing States to deploy their guards to Texas to prevent the entry of Illegals, and to remove them back across the Border. All Americans should support the commonsense measures by Texas authorities to protect the Safety, Security, and Sovereignty of Texas, and of the American people,” he went on. “When I am President, on Day One, instead of fighting Texas, I will work hand in hand with Governor Abbott and other Border States to Stop the Invasion, Seal the Border, and Rapidly Begin the Largest Domestic Deportation Operation in History. Those Biden has let in should not get comfortable because they will be going home.”
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt, and Georgia Governor Brian Kemp have publicly backed Abbott’s fight against the Biden Administration.
