Cocaine Mitch and Tillis giving a giant FU to America and their voters on their way out the door. Absolutely pathetic.

This is a year in which voters are repelled by Trump and the Far Right Trump-favored candidates. I don't think Talarico is the ideal candidate, but it's who he's NOT which will forge a Democratic flip in November.


How did “far right trump-favored candidates” do in primary elections?

Endorsing tranny kids, faggotry, BLM, socialism, and importing the uneducated welfare class are pillars of the talarico platform which you will support with your vote.

Tell us why you vote for these things, and which of Paxton’s policies are worse than these.

It’s not a flex, it’s a response to the supposed rejection of “far right” (and yes, I realize that y’all are trying to invoke fear with this phrase) candidates.

But since you want to knight for that useful idiot, why don’t you tell us about how excited you are to vote for someone who wants to shove umpteen genders down your throat and flood your neighborhood school with illegals?

It requires an ID that provides official verification of citizenship. An ordinary driver’s license does not do that.

This guy isn’t voting for shite. He’s got some homosexual handler. Mitch probably doesn’t even know where he is half the time. Our nation is run by criminals. Bad actors on both sides always covering for each other to protect the corrupt system.

Paxton's policies are worse

Paxton as a candidate is immeasurably worse the progressive Talarico. And his performance as Texas Attorney General is loathsome: he recommended a misdemeanor plea bargain for a man in McLennon County accused of multiple acts of child r*pe-- a first-degree felony in Texas. Instead of a certain life sentence to be imposed upon conviction, the man served less than 3 months in the county jail!

Ken Paxton is a detestable human being and should be nowhere near Washington in a policy making capacity. It's estimated that nearly one-third of Texas REPUBLICANS may cross the aisle and cast a ballot for Talarico in November. And before you exult too much over Paxton's big primary runoff win, look at the numbers statewide cast in the primaries-- there were substantially many more ballots cast for Democrats than for Republicans in carnelian-red Texas. In Starr County, on the border, a county which Trump won 55%-44% in 2024, only 211 votes were cast this cycle for Republicans, as opposed to nearly 7000 for Democrats.

Enthusiasm is through the roof this year to put an end to Texas's red hegemony, and the Democrats have th ideal candidate to do just that-- in Ken Paxton!

This is what ranked choice voting gets you. And, oh, Ted Stevens had his conviction vacated by prosecutorial misconduct, but this is the oxygen thief that replaced him. Democrats win again.

Imagine all 100 Senators having a 6 year lame duck term.

Would be amazing. Then they'd actual govern rather than campaigning their entire tenure.

It just seems wrong and possibly criminal that Mitch McConnell is “voting”
