Paxton has refused to debate Talarico for months, and Trump just stabbed him in the back by calling for the two of them to debate. He really hates this guy, doesn't he?

🚨BREAKING: Ken Paxton just revealed he wants to cut programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid: “Making some reasonable cuts to mandatory spending… Suck it up.” This is NOT someone we can trust with our earned benefits!

I'm so sorry. Yesterday I was saying he had a coherent lie to tell but his dementia scrambled it. He wasn't threatening Los Angeles and San Diego. Oop. He is threatening Los Angeles and San Diego. Let's vote blue all the way down the ballot and contain this guy.

“It’s the war, it’s gas prices,” Paxton said, “That’s by far our biggest problem, and why we’re having a hard time with numbers.” “Paxton didn’t empathize with Texans who are paying higher gas prices every day,” Castro said. “He thought only of himself and what it meant for his political future.”

The article is so kind when they say "Trump touched on the usual points." All unrelated to starting a new shipyard. He praised Baltimore city, it's east Baltimore County. He mentioned autonomous subs, Anduril says nope.

Daily kos article has national PACs spending $160 million on Paxton campaign. But remarks it's mostly TV ads, and nobody watches TV. [ I watch Aaron Rupar video. Thx Aaron.] Paxton has a sad because he feels like DC is running his campaign and he has no say.

Toxic Trump smells bad for Republican campaigns. Trump is going to insult Paxton again. Paxton is going to stand there and take it so he keeps getting those PAC dollars. A second audio recording leak has Paxton saying that he's totally out of running his campaign it's all done by Washington DC crew.

“Donald Trump’s political toxicity, rampant illegality, and utter incompetence should not obscure a bigger worry: namely, that he is stone-cold nuts.” “As he ages, Trump’s decline will continue (maybe accelerate), meaning this is likely the “best” version of Trump we will see from here on out.”

"Take out Los Angeles. Take out San Diego. A small price to pay." Trump had a coherent lie to tell. His dementia ran it thru the blender. The lie: Iran had a pending nuclear device and could use it. His intel crew had said they didn't. He meant that he saved LA and San Diego, higher prices not bad.

Vance has learned one thing from Trump: the art of unembarrassed, extravagant, effortless, conscienceless lying, no matter how big and how obviously absurd. I don’t know if conservatives will take it, from him, but he’s gonna give it to them in big slop buckets. Almost as big as Trump’s.
