Gov. Greg Abbott embraces 'Hot Wheels' nickname in viral social media post
Looks like Texas Gov. Greg Abbott may have a sense of humor after all. The state's Republican governor appears to have embraced the nickname "Governor Hot Wheels" in a viral social media post after U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett, a North Texas Democrat, referred to him by the same epithet during a banquet in Los Angeles on Saturday. Crockett has received blowback from both sides of the aisle for appearing to mock Abbott's use of a wheelchair.
