Years ago, this would've bothered me, but I"ve grown up a little and stopped projecting my holier-than- thou attitude onto others and this especially applies to politicians. So now, I'll take a Ken Paxton who cheats on his wife over a Rino John Cornyn who is for foreign wars and endless national debt



Well said....sir

How many people in this thread have said this is going to keep them from voting for Paxton ?


and me asserting that this is gonna hurt his campaign is not the equivalent

He's always been a weasel. Those indictments from a few years earlier were legit, but way too many people fell for the GOP swamp propaganda calling him a "real conservative".

He's a swampy, googly eyed rhino just making money from the gub'ment.

Careful now you're telling the end of the story before the payoff


here is a question if paxton is such an arch conservative why hasn't he challenged the O'Donnell Consent decree decision for the safety and benefit of Harris County ?

as AG he can



Now asking that question is going to get me called the liberal when the reality is a real conservative should be asking the same thing

They're the same guy!

We need a better candidate that will promise to not take AIPAC money. Because as we just saw yesterday, every war goes through Israel. Bibi shows up and Trump mysteriously agrees to send more weapons to Ukraine? I'm sorry, but the group that cries the hardest about stereotypes goes out of their way to really promote them. .

We gotta cut off Israel once and for all. I don't care what evangelicals fell for, but funding this synagogue of Satan is not our biblical duty.

To me, divorce is a private matter and should be a family decision (as in tell the children but don't stay together "for the kids"). Announcing it on X is the most ridiculous thing any grown person should do. It reeks of "poor, poor, pitiful me" or hey guys, "I'm back on the market". As to his running for Senator, it would not be a favorable characteristics that would I consider but not sure it's a deal killer depending on his opponents. If Cornyn was his only opposition, I would probably go with Paxton. Seems hypocritical but I dislike John that much.

I’ve never heard of Ken Paxton but I don’t give a single frick about him hanging chicks on the side.

He may well be a terrible senator but not because he got some pussy

i'm not a neocon/leftist. yes i agree with his voting record. yes he's picked good fights. he's just obviously a PoS

But he's not picked the important fights

it's all very calculated to win the next election not to serve the state of texas or its people

She felt the need to announce this on Twitter, why, exactly?

For I think the 3rd or 4th time in this thread, she's an elected official it's a very public divorce It's something known about in Austin and in Collin County and amongst political circles in Texas,, for more than a little while//
I imagine negotiations broke down and she's playing her hand,, or her Trump card
and fwiw Trmups team has known this, one of the reasons theyve not endorsed
it's not a secret it's just now public She's also a politician

If you're not voting for Ken Paxton bc the Bush Family decided to blast his divorce all over the place - well - you deserve John Cornyn, and I don't want to hear another of you 2nd Amendment purists bitch ever, ever again.

Probably received a promise of campaign support from one of John Cornyn SuperPACs that support him.

How many other Congress members have had myriad extramarital affairs?

I give a shite about his political stances and his track record, not who he bones. If he indeed cheated on his wife, hope it was worth it, with how it will affect their children. But that's on him, and for him to deal with. If he votes to advance a conservative agenda, that's all that matters.

In every spending bill, Congress allocates themselves a slush fund to pay for silence when members are perverts and promiscuous, FFS. Being a politician and a horndog is literally a tale as old as time.
