Thune is posting ads for Beltway plumbing services. He still thinks he’s a special kind of elite. The establishment elites are getting dangerouser and dangerouser as they become fewer and fewer.

Roy will find a seat at the table in the administration.

Outstanding! Now, when is its Thune’s turn to be shown the door? Tillis, Murkowski, Collins, and all the rest of the RINOs in the Senate?

>> Chip Roy reminds me of the male version of MTG.

Good one!

Roy has significant local support. His supporters say he’s got balls! Like Paxton!

I say Roy is an unpredictable loose cannon. Like mASSIe!

Or like MTG, as you point out.

Dang, I’m gonna miss Al Green at the next SOTU. He’s a skilled and talented buffoon.

Just like cornered rattlesnakes-pres Trump is probably getting ready with a hook and a supply of snake bags...

That’s my understanding, according to my research. I voted for him.

Roy is my congressman and I will be glad to see him go. He told MAGA to kiss his a$$ and called us MFers. Good riddance.

A comment I saw elsewhere:

“Something that isn’t really being talked about, but I think the fact that these RINOs are getting not just beaten but absolutely crushed in these primaries is really going to motivate and encourage the MAGA base to get out and vote in November because we feel like we can really make a difference.

Our votes still matter.”

You do not get the result you got in TX if the president has an approval rating in the low 30s. Either the results are fake or the polls are fake. You be the judge.

We in Texas know better. Paxton was always going to win by more than the margin of error.

Correct. Only those Democrats who voted on the Republican Ballot in the Primary can vote in the Runoff.

Actually not quite correct. ANY registered voter who did NOT vote in the Dem primary can vote in the GOP runoff.

Not many get that right.

Fewer understand it.
