, is known for hosting. But unlike Patrick, Abbott’s campaign tells the media statewide about his stops in advance, and he tends to take three or four questions from the media at the end of each event.
Patrick added that winning 65% of the rural vote is “not good enough” for Republicans. He suggested 70% or 75% would be better to offset Democratic votes elsewhere. But for now, the bus tour stands out as the most unique feature of his November election, and despite some social media mockery, his campaign seems happy with it.
“Because your guy or gal over 40 years old reads it because it’s 12 pages long and it’s once a week, and most of it is local issues, and so they’ll read it front and back,” Springer said of local news coverage in rural Texas. One Dallas-based TV journalist caught up with Patrick one day last month in Bowie, which is 68 miles northwest of Fort Worth. Patrick’s campaign did not tell the reporter Jack Fink about the stop in advance, but he found out about it anyway and was invited inside, according to. Fink asked Patrick three questions outside his bus after the event, including one about the state’s new abortion law lacking exceptions for rape victims.
Wow, how much did that bus cost? He could have used the money to bring potable water to rural areas!!! Now THAT would have been a true Christian campaign.
Is KenPaxtonTX hiding on the bus eluding a subpoena?
Love to see it, it's almost like moms don't like groomers and child abusers.
Republican politicians take rural voters for granted. They know they’ll likely get rural votes then they can ignore rural Texans until the next election cycle Some of these politicians have been in office for multiple terms and have never visited these rural areas
Danny boy doesn’t want any witnesses to record his remarks.
Hey Sophie How are you doing If you're interested in some ideas about birthday gifts or holidays, I can offer for you a personalised design that i make it for free, then i put it in t-shirt. Just Give me the name and if you have suggest designs. Thank you,
Texas Tribune is literally a cat box liner for turds.
Not to mention that the GOP has made major inroads in the border area, more than making up for modest losses in the suburbs.
Dan Patrick TL GOPFascistTraitors GOPDomesticTerrorists GOPFilth Texas
Dan Patrick came to Texas after his getting well at a mental hospital....as been reported.Nothing wrong with that...until he promoted killing our Grandparents during COVID. Which under the GOP/GQP of Texas leadership they managed to do. Patrick not a Texan,not sane,100% deadly.
So Patrick is copying Beto?🤔 Got it!
we need an actual human being in the role. let's vote this villain out next month, for the love of fuck.
Put this buffoon in prison along with Abbott, Dan Patrick, Cruz, Trump and a swamp of others
Did you see the crowds?
My four year old nephew has a better travel diary.

Wow! You’d Believe he wasn’t a racist with this photo except he’d then open his mouth and spew his hatred. There’s that.
Half those people work at the restaurant where he stopped. What a joke. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pretty pitiful if you ask me.
Mike Collier for Texas Lt. Governor.
So we're paying his salary to campaign, 'cause he's not in the office.
Beto was already there
He’s a goofball.
Somebody asking him about the state collecting kids’ dna so they can be identified in a school shooting
I'd be media-shy too, if all I could scare up was 11 folks.
🖕🐔💩🤡
Book bans on parade coming to a school near you.
Just what our roads need…a giant bus with Mr MomJeans’ face on the side.
Someone needs to send his bus to NYC.
He should join Ted Cruz in Cancun. TX has far more problems than when he was elected (& no solutions in sight) It’s time for him to take a long vacation. We need a grid that works A Div of Youth & Family Services helping troubled kids Kids safe school. Lower prop. taxes
I Like Mike! CollierForTexas Mike will work for Texans, not donors. Patrick had his chances and look at us.
Same bus that LtGovTX Dan Patrick throws Texans who do not pad his portfolio under. And, same bus where he daydreams about all his white, male, TexasGOP glory. ItCouldHaveBeenWorse
If he's actually out there campaigning, he's scared he might lose.
Republicans have been in charge of Texas for 30 years - if we have all these scary problems, isn’t it on them?
yep, career politician, Dan, is out in the rural areas telling scary stories to the elderly about what's going to happen to them if the Dems win.
Lol even in their staged photo it looks so sad.
I've had Thanksgivings with more attendees.
Weirdest campaign I’ve ever seen! Go Mike Collier.
It’s amazing, he meets tens of people weekly!
How much TaxPayers money went into this Bus or the Texas Raining Day Fund
Good
He’s not a Texan. Ask him about Maryland crab cakes and the terrapins.
He can’t go any place in Texas where property taxes, the electrical grid and gun violence are not problems.
Failed as a radio talk host, now failed as TX LG.
VoteBlue2022 straight Democrat ticket
He turn that bus around and leave RepublicanWarOnWomen
Humm, a rolling shit show. RepublicansHaveNoSolutions RepublicansLieAboutEverything RepublicansAreDestroyingAmerica
Dan Patrick = BR GOP GOPFascistTraitors GOPDomesticTerrorists Texas GOPFilth
They have to make sure they hit the Murdoch sheep
I’m not sure what his best strategy would be here, but I’m pretty sure this isn’t it. He’s meeting with mostly old white rural Texans, if he feels he needs to convince this group to vote (R) then he’s in deep trouble.
I swear to god if he used our tax dollars for that eyesore...🤬
Barely Beto has been there visiting These areas over and over yall barely go when it's election time . Hope they throw rotten tomatoes at the rotten Republicans
He's just now remembering to acknowledge those voters!🙄
Vote him out Texas!
maybe he can explain to those rural Texans why he thinks they shouldn't have medicaid expansion in Texas to help them keep their rural hospitals open....
What's left of his base after he told them to sacrifice themselves to COVID for the economy.
Thank Dan Patrick for this disastrous stunt too. Greggy shouldn't get all the credit -- Danny Goeb* is due his share. * Dan Goeb Patrick (born Dannie Scott Goeb; April 4, 1950) GOPCorruptionOverCountry TexasDeservesBetter

ffs. Dan Patrick is a monster..he’s gotta go
Lt Dan's bus tour may be media-shy because he can only get 11 folks to show up.
Look at that ridiculous bus.. .
Who the F is Mike Collier?
