(Austin, TX) — Former President Donald Trump is pledging his support for Texas Governor Greg Abbott in the 2022 election.

Trump’s endorsement on Tuesday comes less than two-weeks after Abbott received a primary challenger.  Trump praised Abbott for doing what he can to secure the border and support gun rights.  Texas recently passed a bill that gets rid of gun licenses, allowing anybody who can legally buy a gun to carry it in public.

The governor also made a disaster declaration at the southern border.
