I think I’m probably 80% aligned or more with him, and I’d imagine 90%+ with Paxton. I am to the right of Mussolini though. I also try to stay pragmatic with the reality of the state of the electorate and think it’s good to have a powerful Senator advocating for Texas’s interests.

All Ken has to do is play Talarico’s sermons on repeat.

There is absolutely zero chance Cornyn wants amnesty especially now

If Paxton was some baw out of the fields then maybe. But he is the Texas AG. Which means he has already won a state wide election 3x.

Anyone who thinks Talarico is a moderate in anything were never going to vote for Cornyn any way. They are clueless.

Would this be in worrying about the same GOP Senate that has done virtually squat for helping out DJT? With Cornyn being an “influential voice” for that GOP Senate?

Yeah, that’s no great loss. Aside from passively-aggressively stonewalling DJT at many junctures, I’m hard pressed to immediately think of anything that GOP Senate has even done on its own accord to advance anything conservative for America and Americans.

I know people like that actually. They would be fine with Cornyn and would either vote for Cornyn over Talarico or maybe not turn out to vote in general. But they absolutely loathe Paxton. Don’t ask me to make sense of it, I think it’s retarded too.

It seems this question is asked about TX every election cycle. People drive through this area of Dallas, Houston, SA, etc. and see all the dem candidate signs, and start freaking out. With the exception of one election in 2018 between Cruz and O’Roarke it’s never close. That election was closer because of what he said about Trump 2 years earlier.

The Democrat candidate is Talerico. He is a sneaky lying snake oil salesman posing as a moderate. I would vote for Paxton if I lived in Texas. He has a tack record of fighting for MAGA.

So, the primaries? I can’t keep up with your apparent towering intellect but maybe you can help me understand how that is relevant to the discussion in this thread?

Trump’s endorsement of Paxton is irrelevant. Paxton was up double digits over Cornyn before the endorsement.

Cornyn has done nothing to advance Trump’s agenda. Senate republicans deserve to lose.

The anti- Talarico ads are already out & they are great. Low T Talerico. This guy is truly insane.


Do you seriously think the majority of Latino men are going to vote for a soy boy like Talarico? I think a percentage of the Black community will sit this one out as their Ratchet Queen Jasmine Crockett was ousted by Talarico in the primary & they are still pissed. Straight Black men are going to take one look at this guy & see the attack ads that expose him for all the insane things he has said & stay home or vote of the Alpha in the race.
