This moron actually blamed the Federal government for that sickening statistic.
Medicare covers 2.3 million Texans.
Medicaid covers 3.3 million Texans.
If you take away federal programs Texas would have a 40% uninsured population!
What the heck does the Republican party plan to do? For anyone?
It's a joke.

He's a funny guy for sure.
When asked about immigration he proposed beefing up border security with more boots on the ground (border patrol agents and the National Guard) and policing the border with Drone predators, essentially creating either a much larger agency or a new one. But no federal spending, God no. I'm sure the free market and unleashing our entrepreneurial spirit will solve our immigration problem. Can't have gubment blocking bidness.
He has good hair though.
