EXCLUSIVE: Texas GOP Campaign Trolls 'Radical' Democrat Convention
Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s campaign unleashed a series of stunts to counter program the Texas Democratic Convention on Friday.
Abbott’s campaign went after Democrats and their “radical” policy agenda, featuring taco menus that mock their political track record and distributing “missing” milk cartoons depicting failed Democratic Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett.
The spectacle will also feature a live bull draped in a sign that reads, “Don’t buy the bull.” (RELATED: James Talarico Says Billionaires Are ‘Destroying’ Country. Parades Around With One Anyway.)
The campaign is kicking things off with the “Talarico’s Tacos” truck serving real tacos with menu items like “open border brisket” and “veggie Talarico.” Attendees who order a “Democrat promises” taco will be served an empty tortilla.

Another part of the Abbott campaign stunts includes the Crockett milk cartoon, taking a jab at the congresswoman with a line that reads, “If found, do not return.”

A billboard campaign will also be displayed outside the convention, depicting the policies of progressive keynote speakers like New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Texas Senate nominee James Talarico, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The billboards also list Democrat policies like open borders, high taxes, and the protection of transgender players in women’s sports, followed by the line, “Good luck with that!”(RELATED: Democrat Texas Senate Nominee Talarico Says He ‘Hates Christianity’ In Old Interview With Transgender Theologian)
To top it all off, the campaign will have a mobile billboard with a QR code outside the convention, taking users to a website with a ten minute compilation of “radical Democrats” as well as an in-depth breakdown of their policy track record.
“The Texas Democrat Convention is nothing more than a rebranding exercise for a party whose toxic agenda has no place in Texas,” campaign press secretary Eduardo Leal told the Daily Caller. “Democrats can change their messaging, but they can’t hide from their record of supporting open borders, defunding the police, and pushing anti-energy policies that threaten Texas jobs. Governor Abbott’s campaign will expose the Democrats for what they are — frauds.”
