Texas Governor Trashes Cowboys Defense, Compares It to the State Border Line

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott posted a bold tweet during Sunday night’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints.

He said that Big D’s defense was “more porous than the Texas border.”

Rare that a politician owns up to the failure of his campaign promises like this. Cheers, governor pic.twitter.com/W9pt4uhDLJ

Keep in mind, this is coming from a guy whose campaign was based on securing the Lone Star State’s border.

Accordingly, Twitter unloaded on him:

"

@GregAbbott_TX Mr. Abbot think your great but we got a problem if your letting Texas have a porous border. Aren't you suppose to fix that?

The Cowboys lost to the Saints in overtime, 26-20, after allowing Drew Brees to hook up with C.J. Spiller on an 80-yard touchdown pass.
