Trump’s Texas Endorsement Turns Democrat Into Favorite

Donald Trump’s Texas endorsement hasn’t exactly had the desired effect.

At long last, the 79-year-old president issued his endorsement in the Texas Senate primary on Tuesday. But after he announced his glowing backing of Attorney General Ken Paxton—and delivered a brutal blow to Sen. John Cornyn—signs emerged that the endorsement may backfire.

“The Highly Respected Attorney General of Texas, Ken Paxton, an America First Patriot, and someone who has always been extremely loyal to me and our AMAZING MAGA MOVEMENT, is running for the United States Senate, to represent a place I love and WON, BIG, three times, with 6.4 Million Votes in 2024 (The Most Votes in the History of the State, BY FAR)!” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Tuesday.
