Dan Crenshaw slams ‘unhinged’ response to Texas lifting mask mandate

Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, discusses the social media response to Texas’ mask mandate removal.

Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, blasted Twitter posts from left-wing opponents of Texas lifting their statewide mask mandates, calling the comments "disgusting" and "unhinged."

This isn’t that hard of a concept guys. You know, there has to be a contract between the governed and the government and there has to be trust involved."
