So wait, is he now running for Railroad Commissioner? I’m confused. I think this old fellow Hawk Dunlop might be confused too…
As far as I can tell, Hawk (who clearly IS a real, salt-of-the-earth Texas land guy) is complaining about “them” (RRC?) fucking a bunch of stuff up and leaving zombie wells.
As a quick reminder, Hawk the oil and gas man might want to know that Clayton Tucker the radical left-wing socialist wants to completely abolish fossil fuels and cover the landscape with solar panels and shitty pinwheels….
Of course, Ag Commissioner has nothing to do with any of this, either – just like the data center stuff.
The rich irony is that Clayton’s MOM worked for the Railroad Commission for THIRTY YEARS. So in essence, Clayton’s own mommy (who he lives with at age 35) is partially responsible for the mess that Clayton is standing there pretending to care about for a photo shoot.
BONUS FOOTAGE: Clayton forgot to strap on his handgun prop for this photo shoot. Whoops.
Also, at the 53-second mark, a pudgy, doughy white Clayton squats down and pretends to sniff or taste the dirt in an attempt to look like he knows what he’s doing.
Massive fail.
