Abbott not joining Trump at San Antonio campaign stop
Abbott cited a scheduling conflict and instead planned stops in Jasper and College Station, where a barbecue for 250 was set to begin as Trump rallied.
- On Wednesday, Oct. 7, Texas Governor Greg Abbott will not attend President Donald Trump's "Midterm Rally" in San Antonio, his campaign confirmed.
- Abbott, a longtime Trump ally, cited his existing schedule, stating, "Because of my schedule, where I travel to multiple cities a day for events like this, I already have events scheduled that day."
- The governor will hold campaign events in Jasper, a city of about 7,500 near the Louisiana border, and appear at a barbecue in College Station with a maximum capacity of 250.
- Trump's visit to the Lone Star State aims to support Attorney General Ken Paxton, who faces Democrat James Talarico in the U.S. Senate race ahead of midterm elections.
- Although Trump generates excitement among the party base, Abbott's absence reflects a broader phenomenon where some Republican incumbents avoid being seen with the president.
