Rick Perry

The longest-serving governor in Texas history — Perry's 14-year tenure made him a national figure, but his 2012 presidential campaign's 'oops' moment when he forgot his own talking points became one of the great debate flameouts in modern history.

Greg Abbott

Governor / Republican (TX) — Wichita Falls, Texas · 2015–present

The Texas governor who signed some of the most aggressive anti-abortion and voting restriction legislation in modern American history, and whose response to the Uvalde school shooting was criticized as inadequate — Abbott's wheelchair, the result of a tree falling on him in 1984, has never limited his political ambitions.
