OBAMA: "What if I sent the National Guard into Texas and said I don't care what Governor Abbott says..."

OBAMA: “What if I sent the National Guard into Texas and said I don’t care what Governor Abbott says… and just kind of took over?”

Imagine that.

Fox News would’ve held a 96-hour emergency broadcast with 18 split screens and a countdown to “Tyranny Day.”

But when it’s Trump doing it? Crickets.

The right wing fever swamp created a conspiracy theory that Obama was invading Texas. It became a thing.

Texas Governor Abbott, always quick to appease his whacko base, ordered the Texas National Guard Commander to “Monitor the situation.”

Now Abbott is sending the Texas National Guard to Chicago.

Irony is dead and so is Abbott’s soul.
