Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) argued that Democratic lawmakers who oppose the incoming Trump administration’s deportation plans will only experience more losses at the ballot box, as they are going against what most voters asked for.

President-elect Donald Trump has said he intends to declare a national emergency to carry out mass deportations of illegal immigrants, which would include using the military. Ahead of Trump and his Cabinet being sworn in next year, several Democratic governors and mayors, such as Govs. Katie Hobbs (D-AZ), J.B. Pritzker (D-IL), and Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, vowed to oppose these deportations, which the Texas governor soundly rebuked.
