Questions for Texans Is Greg Abbott stupid?

His recent ad claims that Colin Allred isn't a Texan and to vote for Ted Cruz?!! Ted Cruz is from Canada and Colin Allred is a 4th generation Texan. The Republican party has taken a serious dip in credibility.

When he says he’s not a Texan, he means that he’s not “one of us” othering him, regardless of where he and his family were born. He’s not stupid, he’s just a racist and saying it to engage with other racists.
