And we have 16 people fighting for their lives in the hospital ”. The finger of Texas Governor Greg Abbott and the American President, Joe Biden, following what for the US media is the worst tragedy of its kind in US history, after 19 people died in May 2003 similar circumstances in southern Texas and after ten people were found lifeless in a truck in front of a Walmart in San Antonio in 2017.
