Is sending illegal immigrants to DC and NYC just a stunt?
I despise Abbott with every fiber of my being, but does he have a point? California also has a big border with Mexico, but we don't hate immigrants the way Red States do.

There's a lot more land for them in Texas next to the border than there is in Manhattan, moreover it's an additional expense of fuel and whatnot to pull off this stunt, so it is just pointless but it moves The Base and helps the GQP in post-Nixon fear-based election strategies. Moreover, it's not like immigrants are depleting the Texas wind turbine winterizing program (the what? exactly) funding, et al.
Now with DC in particular (which is even smaller), if you want to make a stunt out of busing immigrants there, then it is fair to grant DC residents statehood and more voting representation.
