I am in Austin and there seems to be solid buzz for him today after his win. How do y'all feel about his chances in November?

Instead of asking them check dim talking points, they will do whatever they are told.

Talarico is more liberal than Crockett, if you can imagine that, with the same bs every Democrat Senate Candidate has trotted out for years. As a Texan, I pray to God that Cornyn wins the runoff, because Paxton has a ruck sack full of issues Democrats are salivating at the chance to exploit.

A white Barack Obama. A Texas Republican's worse nightmare.

In short yes.

He is far more competitive than Crockett who was not only a non starter in Texas but bad for the overall brand of the party.

He will force Republicans to spend money they would otherwise have for Maine North Carolina and Georgia.

But his chances? Still really low. Like 5% maybe. It would have to be an insanely blue environment for a Democrat to win Texas. The economy tanking or Iran becoming a huge dumpster fire.

Chances go up if its Paxton, but either way it'll be a huge uphill battle.

But all of that said, it was good for the party yes.

I bet you do pray that a RINO wins. Paxton is the better candidate and will create far more excitement for the GOP than the RINO. MAGA knows Talarico has a ruck sack full of issues they will exploit as well.

Yes because he’s a world class communicator. Also he’s running in a change cycle, which aligns with his message.

Dems are racist for not voting for the strong, black woman that is Jasmin Crockett
