Watch Liberals MELTDOWN Over KEN PAXTON Win
YouTube ^ | 05/27/2026 | Eric Videos

Posted on 05/27/2026 12:28:51 PM PDT by SmokingJoe

This video, titled "Watch Liberals MELTDOWN Over KEN PAXTON Win," covers the reaction from various political figures and commentators following Ken Paxton's primary victory. The creator characterizes these reactions as "meltdowns" and frames the upcoming general election race against James Talarico as an interesting and potentially entertaining contest.

Key Highlights:

Van Jones' Reaction: The video begins by showcasing Van Jones, who expressed strong disapproval of Paxton's win, describing it as a "bad night for America" and criticizing Paxton's character and lack of accountability (0:05 - 1:10).

Controversy over Candidate James Talarico: The video includes segments mocking Representative James Talarico, with commentators referencing various labels and criticisms directed at him, including "Tofu Talarico" and "low tea Talarico," while also touching on the concept of "cisgender" being misunderstood by some (1:22 - 2:44).

Democratic Perspective on Corruption: A Democratic congressman is featured calling Ken Paxton the "most corrupt politician in America," arguing that the race against Talarico will bring people together to fight corruption and potentially flip the state (2:45 - 3:42).

Primary Context: The video provides background on the primary runoff between Senator John Cornyn and Ken Paxton, noting that Donald Trump endorsed Paxton as a "true MAGA warrior" despite controversies regarding Paxton's impeachment for bribery and corruption (3:43 - 5:25).

Political Analysis: Commentator Scott Jennings suggests that it is unlikely for Cornyn voters to switch to Talarico given their significant ideological differences (5:26 - 6:00), while Joe Scarborough and others from the Morning Joe program discuss the political implications for the Republican party following this result (6:28 - 8:19).

“most corrupt politician in America,”


Ha! I can t.think of several democrats way more corrupt than Paxton. They’ve been saying the same thing about President Trump. Accusations are not the same as actual corruption.

Their meltdown is glorious, although a little stupid.

If they think Paxton is more beatable than Cornyn, what are they upset about?

"Tofu Talarico" and "low tea Talarico,"

"Low-tea", seriously? Must be an AI-written piece.

The only ones voting for Talarico will be the minority libs, fag hag women and the fags.

Yes I would imagine that any remaining old style Texas democrats (Democrats whose family voted Democrat since secession and they are going to still do it!) will just stay home or skip that section of the ballot.

It's possible the writer was referring to Talarico's tendency to sit at a low table when taking afternoon tea.

Possible.

The democrats complaining about a corrupt Republican is like a wolf complaining about an aggressive golden retriever.

The fun part was the runoff wasn't even close. Hard to phantom that Cornyn would get less than the 42% he received on primary day, with Paxton getting 40.5%. Having Cornyn drop down to 36.2% in the recall is a serious spanking to the RINOs, DEMs, and MSM.

I think they lied when they said Cornyn would be tougher to beat in the general this November. I don't believe that. If Cornyn and some other RINOs had made it out of the GOP primaries, GOP voters and even some moderate voters would not have been inspired to vote this November.

Now, it seems the GOP base is ready for Election Day. Just need to give the independent and young (male) voters a reason to also show up.

That's the biggest joke of all.
Almost every single Democrat politician is as corrupt as hell.
Newsom, Walz, Omar, Pelosi etc etc and so many of them are currently going to jail after being found guilty of corruption and theft.

And Cornyn outspent Paxton by 9 to 1, and still got totally crushed by Paxton.

Perhaps James Talarico is not the all-conquering hero he has been made out to be by much of the fawning media and partisan hype.

He is running a California-style campaign in Texas, and it may not be a good playbook to be reading from.

And as far as the genuine expression of Democrat (Socialist) meltdown goes, those individuals just did not want to see Trump win in ANY venue, no matter how remote from actual results it may be.
