Pros

Cons

  • Did not participate in our process (automatic 50 point deduction)
  • Has fallen down on his once conservative posture that he has run on in the past.  One glaring example is his lack of pushing hard for a 4th legislative session to address Vax Mandates and Gender modification of children, for which he took money from a PAC who supported that in the past.
  • Where's the property tax relief he's been promising since he's been in office(2014)?  All talk, no action.
  • He also indicated the senate didn't have the votes to pass Constitutional Carry(doubtful), which eventually passed with 18 (of 31 votes) in the senate.  Patrick heard citizen advocates loud and clear and finally had to come around.
  • Other examples of Patricks' failed leadership are:  no secure border, no end to handouts for illegals, no labor law enforcement to punish illegal hiring, no end to in-state tuition for illegals, no end to property taxes/no real tax cuts, no deterrence to electronic hacking of elections (but reduced voter fraud penalties from a 2nd Degree Felony down to a Class A Misdemeanor), no ban on taxpayer-funded lobbying, no ban on sex change mutilations/chemical sterilization of children, no abolish abortion, no protection of historical monuments, no ban on “emergency orders” that trample individual liberty – and Texas is STILL the #2 State in the nation for human trafficking – cheap labor and rape for profit!
