Trump pitches 2024 election as most important for nation’s future during Houston campaign

Raw Story  

HOUSTON — Former President Donald Trump said at a campaign rally Thursday that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton did not deserve to get impeached, a brief aside during remarks in which he pitched the upcoming presidential election as the most important for the future of a nation “ready to fail.” “On day one of our new administration, we will end Biden’s nation-wrecking war on American energy,” Trump said to applause. “With the help of Texas oil and gas workers, we will restore American energy.” Trump’s event took place at Trendsetter Engineering in northwest Houston and drew more than 100 people. Trump promised he would win Texas “in a landslide.” And he took multiple shots at DeSantis, saying his polling numbers are “like a wounded bird falling from the sky.” The Texas Democratic Party sought to get ahead of Trump’s Houston visit with a virtual news conference Thursday morning. Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa said Trump’s claims of “America’s energy independence during his presidency are more lies.” “Under his administration, net imports of crude oil and petroleum spiked,” Hinojosa said, “and though he claims credit for expanding American energy production and exports, the data shows that trend began long before he was in office.” Outside of the field where Thursday’s rally occurred, stands selling "Trump 2024" merch like hats, scarves and flags filled side streets leading to the venue.
