Episode Details

Senator John Cornyn, who just lost his Texas Senate primary, is doubling down on his fiery criticisms of Republican nominee Ken Paxton, despite Paxton’s denials of all allegations. Cornyn, who poured millions into attacking Paxton during the race, says he’ll still back the GOP ticket in November against Democrat James Talarico—but plans to focus his energy on other Senate races instead. He blames low turnout among his own voters in the runoff and acknowledges Trump’s late endorsement likely swayed some supporters. Meanwhile, top GOP leaders including John Thune, Tim Scott, and Ted Cruz are rallying behind Paxton, stressing the urgency of holding onto Texas’ Senate seat.
