Cornyn isn’t someone who Trump is against because he’s been against Trump a lot… he’s getting replaced because Senate Republicans are weak and don’t do what republican voters want.

The senate isn’t supposed to be a locked in career, they should constantly be worried about being replaced, and as of now most of them seem to be way too comfortable

Cornyn isnt always openly against what Trump wants but hes absolutely part of a faction that opposes his agenda behind the scenes.

Everyone that isn’t pushing Thune to back the Save America Act needs to be primaried.

Our biggest fight isn't really Democrat vs. Republican. The Dems are totally off the rails, so the simple fact is that the country needs as few of them as possible.

Our biggest fight is Dirty vs. Clean. Too many elected Republican officials are, to one extent or the other, part of the corrupt system. Bottom-line, we need to primary as many of these weasels as possible. It's a slow process, but without term limits it's the best we can do. At least we've had some victories lately.

Even now, a decade later, I wonder how many people realize that neither Republican leader in Congress in 2016, either lyin' Paul Ryan or Mitch McConnell wanted the outsider Donald Trump to become President. Neither one of them ever worked with Trump. Hell, Ryan was holding meetings in October of 2016 with Democrats to plan for a Hillary Clinton presidency.

Has anything really changed? John Thune isn't any better than McConnell was. Mike Johnson appears to be "somewhat" better than Ryan was, but he's been part of the Establishment for too long, too. Besides, Johnson would lose his seat in the conservative district he represents if he was openly defiant to Trump.

Our #1 enemy isn't some external threat. Our #1 enemy is our very own corrupt system.

Agreed. If anything, to get Thune in line with GEOTUS.

Anyone that's been there longer than 8 years needs to go.

Cornyn has been fricking Texas for years. He killed the property tax cap bill way back when. We are paying WAY too much in property taxes. And our property values keep going up well beyond reasonable increases. I've met guys that are happy that their house value appreciated. Unless you're selling, that's dumb. Sure, you don't want it to go down, that attracts the dindus.

Cornyn is the quintessential RINO. I can't wait to see his arse gone.

Trump was for him several times prior to this last year. Every ad Cornyn puts out is Trump telling Cornyn what a good job he is doing. He's using those plugs to fool everyone.

I'm hoping Cruz replaces Thomas (SC) on the way out for Trump.

Fort Bend County Assessment District: "Market value is not indicative of assessed value."

And yet the morons in Fort Bend elected the hand picked successor to Patsy Schultz to continue the scam.

I'm fine with Roy being Texas AG. I don't trust that "Maga Mayes" dude.
Roy is a solid conservative and has shown that over and over.

Yes, this and I think we are seeing a generational change in politics. Both sides want more active representatives who will stand up to the (left) side. Politics is not getting more collegial. It is getting more adversarial to the point that democrat (yeah, right) socialists are running for and winning. Gotta fight them harder and now. The old guard is not of the mindset to do this. Paxton is.

That should be the case for every elected official at every level of government - PERIOD.
