The governor of California had harsh words for the governor of Texas.
At an event for the Clinton Global Initiative in New York, the governor joked that the conservative governors were as dumb as they wanted to be. We will not follow their path because they are doubling down on stupidity.
The governors of Texas and Florida made headlines last week for taking migrants out of Texas in protest of the policies of the president.
More than 6,000 migrants were sent from the border to other states by Abbott.
Two planeloads of migrants were flown from Texas to Martha's Vineyard in a high-profile stunt. The affected migrants have filed a lawsuit against the Florida governor, accusing him of being involved in a "premeditated, fraudulent, and illegal scheme."
There has been speculation that he might run for president. There has been a long-standing feud between the California governor and his opponent in the next White House race.
He said he would bring his hair gel for the debate. You have your hair done. The Department of Justice was asked to investigate if the migrants were lured to Martha's Vineyard by false promises of employment.
There were advertisements in Florida that were put up to entice residents to relocate to California. In April, he promised to donate $100,000 to the Crist campaign.
He maintains that he is not planning to run for president at the moment.
"I've tried to say 'no, no way' in every way I can, but I can't," he told Michaelson.
