The idea that it was a referendum on Trump appears to be totally baseless.

Independents did not vote in the primary and Eleasy was not a Trump basher. This is no big deal.

Leftists have a hard time understanding that the right doesn’t always exhibit herd behavior like they do.

Trump’s endorsement can only go so far in his candidate is out-spent, out-worked, and out-campaigned.

Ellzey won because he had Rats voting for him over Wright.

True and what it shows is we better not be counting our chickens too soon. This will be a tough election, no cake walk.

“The idea that it was a referendum on Trump appears to be totally baseless.”

Of course it is but the media is deperate to push their narrative that Trumps base is deserting him while in fact nothing ncan be further from the truth.

“Ellzey had the backing of key Texas Republicans. Among them were former Gov. Rick Perry, Rep. Dan Crenshaw, and Joe Barton”

That’s not encouraging. I don’t know anything about Joe Barton (or Ellzey), but he’s in a sentence with a couple of men who are dedicated to Globohomo. I guess we hope for the best.

It was 2 conservative candidates. There was no Democrat in this race.

You are correct; the Republicans votes were split and the Dems backed him over Wright just to stick it to Trump.

Hope he brings up the 3nd class treatment American citizens get in Mexico
The INVADERS because the term “illegals” has been banned.THEN RAISE THE ISSUE IF AMERICANS WERE DOING THIS TO MEXICO WHAT WOULD HAPPEN ?? ALSO POINT OUT THE 2ND CLASS TREATMENT AMERICANS GET IN MEXICO
It is time we reassert our; pardon my using what that one worlder’s call a cussword, SOVEREIGNTY, and consider applying RECIPROCITY. Give the the same treatment an American gets in Mexico The Demorat party ignores what any any citizen of America gets in Mexico .Illegal or legal enty by a Gringo

Texas doesn’t use Dominion machines. When you yell “Dominion” like a Qtard without looking at any facts (like whether the State even uses those machines) that might make you a moron.
