The Republican National Convention is Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's chance to introduce himself to the country.
MILWAUKEE — If Gov. Greg Abbott is going to run for president in 2028, it starts now. With the Republican National Convention underway this week, Abbott is carrying a newfound national profile and is well-positioned to make an even bigger splash among the GOP activists from every state who have descended upon Milwaukee . The governor is one of six Texans given a sought-after speaking role at the convention.
How Greg Abbott made the Texas border America's problem “There’s no question he’s been able to build a national name,” said Ford O’Connell, a veteran GOP strategist with Texas roots who has worked on presidential campaigns. “You know you’re starting to get in that sweet spot when Donald Trump starts mentioning your name on a regular basis.
The evolution of Greg Abbott's stance on immigration While most people think of conventions as wall-to-wall political speeches, they are much more. Beyond the arena where the prime-time speeches are delivered, thousands of activists are spread throughout the city and region attending policy discussions, fundraising receptions and less formal speeches at dozens of hotel ballrooms. “It’s the biggest gathering of movers and shakers within the Republican Party,” O’Connell said.
We asked A.I. to analyze Abbott's rhetoric about the Texas border. He's changed his tone dramatically. And not just for Republicans. In 2004, Barack Obama — then an Illinois state senator — delivered a convention speech that put him on the national radar for the first time.
These are the key Texas Republicans to watch at the RNC in Milwaukee Abbott’s longtime campaign advisor Dave Carney joked earlier this year that being governor of Texas automatically gets you included in the presidential chatter, whether you want to be or not. “Clearly, there’s some constitutional amendment that voters supported back in the day that says, ‘If you’re a governor of Texas, you must consider running for president,’” he told the Associated Press earlier this year.
