Why is Greg Abbott palling around with a predator?

Lone Star Project Video
Abbott to Campaign with a Sexual Predator
Texans will judge Greg Abbott by the company he keeps.

The Lone Star Project Video below contrasts Greg Abbott’s claims that he’ll protect Texas women and girls – with the words of his pal Ted Nugent – who brags about his abuse of minors.

Why is Greg Abbott palling around with a predator?

snip

Lone Star Project Director Matt Angle calls on Greg Abbott to cancel his appearances with Nugent and condemn his abuse of underage girls.
"Greg Abbott is joining forces with an admitted sexual predator to help boost his campaign. Unless Abbott cancels the appearances and publicly condemns Ted Nugent, he will have forfeited any claim to basic moral decency and exposed a fundamental lack of character that disqualifies him for public office in Texas."

then it is definitely fair for Democrats to highlight the associations of Abbott has with a statutory rapist, draft-dodging scumbag like Nugent.

And they hate Goverment Regulation except in certain other people's bedrooms. As far as the underage predation by Nugent, it's another hated Goverment Regulation, and the reasoning behind it is nothing to the type of people that will vote for Abbott. They will only see Ted's gun, and anyone who is a 2A fanatic or good ol' boy is sacred. All is forgiven, saved by grace of the law and voters. The NRA convention Zombie goodies for sale, with the (realistic bleeding for effect) Obama and the also blooding hated ex-girlfriend, were a hit with the crowd. Such stuff is applauded nationally, so Texas is no different.
