Look up who his biggest donor was last cycle and that will answer your question why they aren’t helping Paxton

starting at 6 minute mark. The results of the runoff with cornyn. Denton County came in first and you could tell that it was over. Tarrant County confirmed it. The people of Texas want Paxton as senator. He is just going to have to win on his own without the republican party.

They are in the majority and not doing anything. Good news, the House has learned how to do nothing as well.

Once again, you don't know what you're talking about. It absolutely was the corrupt Bush family that was behind the effort to impeach Paxton

Sounds like desirable qualities. I’m in. Go Paxton.

Because none of that is true and is merely another whine and cry about Trump, ultimately, just put a different way than the same old broken record tracks we’ve heard and read over and over and over and over again.


You’d have been better off with the broken record.

They are not helping because Paxton will destroy his opponent. Spend that money where it is really needed.

Senate (and House) Republicans have done everything they can to insure a Dem takeover of both houses in November. However the Dems have decided to embrace jew hating and communism in response so its possible the Republicans will maintain power, much to their chagrin. The thing is whether they are in the majority or minority a Republican in DC lives much the same lifestyle so they dont really care either way.

This just fricking stupid. If the GOP gives up a senate seat and loses control then they lose more than having to deal with Paxton and Trump would be vulnerable to impeachment.

Not good at all.
other than constant impeachment attempts, what will be the difference then now?

Trump will go full executive ham for his last 2 years, either way.

Hmm.. I was reliably told we needed more congressmen willing to compromise and go along with the establishment, rather than standing on principles.

The sooner you realize there just one party (and it owns the vestiges of ‘MAGA’) the sooner it will all make sense.

There is a battle for control of the Republican Party. Trump has seized most of the control of it but not complete control.

And that’s Trump’s own fault. When you shift it from America first to Israel first this is ultimate result.

This is such a tired, lazy canard.
