In a series of recent comments, former President Trump has publicly criticized Republican figures John Cornyn and Karl Rove, attributing the potential downfall of Texas Senate candidate Ken Paxton to their lack of support. As momentum for Paxton wanes, Trump contends that Cornyn and Rove’s actions could sabotage his campaign, stating that if Paxton loses, they should bear the blame. This internal strife among Texas Republicans has escalated, with Trump claiming that the stakes of this election are high, indicating dire consequences if the GOP fails to unite behind Paxton. Meanwhile, supporters of Paxton are increasingly anxious about the possibility of the Senate race turning in favor of Democratic opponents, reflecting deeper divides within the party.
