Donald Trump has arrived in Houston! Stepping off the plane to roaring cheers and a warm greeting on the tarmac, he is in town for a private fundraising event. Watch as he waves to supporters, pumps his fist, and greets local officials after landing.

The blacks are not lining up for Low-T. Without their massive get out the vote (vote as we tell you) infrastructure, it will be difficult for Low-T to win.
Looks like neither Cornyn or Crockett are falling in line to help the party

Trump's helped Texas, but it still seems to be heading left

Three realities facing the Texas GOP right now.
— John Huffman (@JohnRHuffman) August 28, 2026
1. Paxton had a window to unite with Cornyn and thus earn his vote and supporters. He didn’t. That window is now closed. (Btw that’s on Paxton, not Cornyn.)
2. Paxton is a millstone around the neck of the rest of the GOP ticket.… https://t.co/K4IFGKry7o
Cornyn was and is a self-absorbed ass.
I don't like Paxton, but there was never any real chance Cornyn would put party over ego, much less Texas.

Tantrum or not, I would not vote for Paxton if his campaign paid me $10,000. Paxton may very well be the absolute WORST Texas candidate for the U.S. Senate in history. It still fascinates me to watch all the political gymnastics on this site to justify voting for him. Unreal!!!
Texas "Republicans" are certified Pavlov's dogs. They no longer think for themselves. Really kinda sad.
Call it a tax, the people are outraged! Call it a tariff, the people get out their checkbooks and wave their American flags!!!
"Rentatruck" Talarico thanks you for your help.

No help from me. I refuse to vote for the likes of Paxton and Talarico. We deserve better. Your loyalty to your Republican candidates (Especially Trump) is amazing! Good for you! I am no longer a part of the club.

The sooner everyone realizes politicians are just tools, the better.
When you need something fixed, you go to the store and buy a tool. Some tools do the job perfectly and will last a lifetime. Some tools aren't perfect,. They'll will get the job done, but you know eventually you'll have to replace them. Other tools are bad from the get go and will break when you first try to use them.
For me, Paxton is in the second group. He ain't perfect, but he'll vote for the things I want. In six years, we can primary him.

Y'all said the same thing about Trump, now it's a full decade later and he's making multiple billions of dollars a year, taking corruption to new and unprecedented levels while lighting the world and our standing in it on fire.
Maybe stop voting for unrepentant scumbags for a change.

What has Cornyn done that you don't like - think hard? Oh, I guess he's never been indicted, impeached, cheated on his wife, or accused of corruption. You MAGA schmucks all think alike.

I know what Talarico would do in office. So yeah, there's no sane choice now but Paxton for that seat

Apparently some of our local Leftists want open borders, the mutilation of children, more fraud (electoral & financial), higher taxes, and all the rest.

Republican Party in Texas needs to wake up and start getting the best and brightest for candidates instead of having some doofuses deciding financial backing goes to who has better name recognition or some such.

The biggest problem with Talrico's ad is that it is entirely true and supported by evidence. By problem, I mean a problem for Paxton. Unfortunately, I believe the only way to get out of this mess is to ruthlessly eliminate the Paxton's from the party. The side effect of that is that we may lose the US Senate for 6 years. Its our own stupid fault.
Cornyn getting a big ratio
