There is no way we get the Texas primary result if Trump is at 40% or less approval.

There was a poll not long before the vote which showed Cormyn slightly up over Paxton. This wasn’t a mistake: it was a malicious lie. It was an attempt to depress Paxton’s turnout – an attempt to interfere with the election. The rest of the polling is pretty much just that: a lie. Lies designed to make it seem like Trump is unpopular and the GOP is doomed if it sticks with Trump. Both the Democrats and the RINOs want this to be true – they need this to be true. And they are trying to propagandize their desire into reality.

But the vote shows it isn’t working – not one little bit. Cormyn was humiliated in the primary. Losing by nearly two to one. Plus GOP turnout has been high – lost in the shuffle is that the GOP won all three Georgia Supreme Court seats up for grabs last week. That Court now stays with us for the long term. It was crucial for Democrats to win those so they could start to Californicate Georgia. They won’t be able to, now. Far from being a swing State, Georgia now will start to shift back to reliably Red. Over and over again over the past few months it has been like that – endless polls and analysis showing we’re doomed, results showing we’re surging. And this is before gasoline prices start to drop.

The people are tired of liars – the Democrats latest attempt to lie their way into office, Talrico in Texas, is going to fail miserably. The man is a complete freak – totally out of step with Texas. But the Democrats thought they could nominate him – a white man – and use smooth words to convince Texans to send a man to the Senate who utters blasphemy on the regular. Ain’t gonna work. It won’t even be close. The race is called for Paxton on poll closure.

And the GOP base is tired of electing Republicans who always find the time to help Democrats and never find the time to advance core GOP desires. The SAVE Act is backed by at least 80% of the people. It is a slam dunk. Paxton said he’d back out of Cormyn got it passed. Trump clearly would have endorsed Cormyn if it had been passed…but the GOP Senate leadership figured they are untouchable and this whole MAGA thing will just blow over once Trump is gone. That isn’t happening. Hopefully Thune will now wake up to reality and ride the wave…a GOP Senate that now passes the SAVE Act – or at least puts a real effort into trying – will roll up huge victories in November.
