I doubt there is a single democrat that voted for Beto or Harris that would vote for Ken Paxton

There is zero enthusiasm for Paxton in Texas. Besides a Twitter ad about trans kids I’m not sure what Paxton is doing to win this race. We are only a few months out…


Blah blah blah same was said for his primary.

No, it wasn’t. I live here. Do you? I don’t recall anyone saying Cornyn had an advantage.

Paxton seems like a litmus test of how much of a cartoonish bad guy can you be but still mutter all the MAGA buzzwords and see if you can still win a traditionally deep red state like Texas.

Idgaf where you live. For one it was absolutely discussed on here and Cornyn spent over 30 mil with an additional 130 million being pumped into that senate election. Cornyn had a major advantage as an incumbent backed by Thune.

He’s not even citing individual race/district turnout he’s citing registered voters per state. Dems numbers may be higher in what he showed but they are way down based upon historical primary turnout. The one group that is showing up and voting is MAGA. Look at Trumps endorsement record and those races.

Well if you don’t show up to vote because the Epstein files weren’t released or deportations are happening quick enough then enjoy your gay preacher supporting trannies. Texas deserves what is going to happen just as Georgia deserves it

They used that money on silly ads where Cornyn danced around being MAGA. No one into Texas politics thought he had a serious advantage. The question is not whether MAGA voters will show up in November. It’s if the moderate Republicans and purple suburb types do.

You said Cornyn had no advantage I simply refuted that.

Hate for Trump (TDS) is all the Dems offer, but it’s a powerful motivator for them, fueled by their accomplices in the MSM.

Rs are going to have to find a way to fire up voters, some way to rally…

After what we've seen in Michigan and Wisconsin that polls mean anything???
Remember when the polls had Kamala up by 7-10 points?????

Polls can't vote!

Well then conversation voters are not paying attention. Trump was always going to be a short term solution. With Congress and the senate clearly not in his corner…. Nothing is getting codified into law. Better show up in November, hard.

He won’t win but it’s just a matter of time. America’s going socialist and we’re either gonna have to take it dry or man the frick up, one.
