TDS losers who think it hurts Trump and didn’t vote. Paxton is going to win, though.

They didn’t show up. If he can easily beat Talafreako, where were the voters in the primaries that would provide for that?

They never supported Paxton and this was well known. Why would they?

The Neo-Con RINOS in Texas. Which in actuality are just Democrats that ran as Republicans because their party shifted so hard left between post-Clinton they couldn't sniff a victory.

Then Obama threw jet fuel on that shift, and they were stuck.

I have noticed under Trump 2.0 that these traitors are being brought out, exposed, and removed from the true Republican party.

I think you need to blame the influx of dem voters that have been moving Texas and not the Bush family

The establishment and conservative pundits we've been told have had no influence for the last decade.

They will be blamed for every loss

several people told the Paxton hardliners he would face an uphill battle in the general if he won, and Cornyn wouldn't.


By the same reasoning Cornyn people knew Trump was cold on him and he could have an uphill battle.


Seeing the convergence of both of these, the Texas GOP should have coalesced around Wesley Hunt who would have been the cleanest candidate.

There was no indication Cornyn would have had an uphill battle, though.

He'd probably had had less problems than Paxton, but more than Cornyn.

I think it would be safe with him, though, unlike the current status
