Greg Abbott's Border Stunt Cost His State $4.2 BILLION - Ring of Fire



Republican Texas governor Greg Abbott doesn't care about the costs of his political theater that he's been carrying on along the Southern border, and the economic toll of his recent "border inspections" is proof. The most recent analysis shows that his intentional disruption of the supply chain cost the state of Texas more than $4.2 BILLION in economic losses, but none of that matters to people like Abbott. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.
